REMGUARD OFFERED REMOTE VIEW OF CCTV AT IFSEC 2009

RemGuard Visual Management ­ part of AD Group ­ promoted its BS8418 compliant remotely monitored, detector activated, CCTV service throughout IFSEC 2009, with a presence on the stands of its sister companies AD Network Video and Dedicated Micros.

A key focus for RemGuard at IFSEC 2009 was a drive to increase, dramatically, the number of commercial and domestic sites linked to its service via compatible NetVu Connected equipment from its sister company Dedicated Micros. 

Additionally, the company highlighted the growing potential of remotely monitored, detector activated, CCTV to protect the homes of high net worth individuals from attack, against the backdrop of increased targeting by ruthless criminal gangs.

RemGuard also emphasised the favourable cost of ownership benefits of remotely monitored, detector activated, CCTV, given the current economic climate. In particular, by outlining the ability for the service to be added to an existing CCTV solution, to enhance its capabilities, through a suitable Digital Video Recorder - or 'free-for-use' transmission equipment - and to take advantage of already installed CCTV cameras, with the addition of suitable detectors. 

RemGuard also gave IFSEC visitors an insight into the experiences of customers where its service has made a real difference on the ground, including, most recently, a builders merchant in West Yorkshire which has seen an impressive 80 per cent reduction in theft. 

Said Alan Collinge, Operations Director at RemGuard: “The IFSEC exhibition presented an ideal opportunity for us to highlight the proven capability of our BS8418 compliant service to deal proactively and cost effectively, with criminal attacks. Looking back over the past 12 months operators at our Remote Video Response Centre (RVRC) have been able to intervene successfully in a large number of incidents, whether it be giving a timely audio warning to a youth climbing the fence of a timber yard in Manchester - causing him to immediately flee the scene - or spotting three individuals at a car dealership in Oxford setting fire to one of the cars parked-up on the forecourt. In this case by rapidly alerting both the fire brigade and police, damage caused by the attack could be minimized and, crucially, subsequent arrests made of all of the suspects.”
