What is CCTV?
Closed-circuit television, also known as video surveillance, is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific place, on a limited set of monitors.
Why we need CCTV for our organization?
In commercial establishments, if there are trained personnel who continuously monitor these footages, it is also possible to track suspicious activities and the possibility of shoplifting by petty thieves, and prevent untoward incidents, before they actually occur.
Features of CCTV
Deters thieves and robbers
The presence of surveillance cameras and a warning board, stating that the area is under surveillance, can act as a strong deterrent to criminals and thieves, as it is possible to identify people and track their movements, using the recorded footages. In commercial establishments, if there are trained personnel who continuously monitor these footages, it is also possible to track suspicious activities and the possibility of shoplifting by petty thieves, and prevent untoward incidents, before they actually occur.
To record evidence
In case a theft or any crime does occur, the recordings of a CCTV can be utilized by the police to analyze the incident and produce the footage as an evidence against the criminals, in the court of law. Modern-day monitoring systems can record audio as well. These footages could come in particularly handy, to gather evidence about the entry and exit time of people or if you want to replay a series of events that have actually transpired.
Monitor suspicious activities
By discreetly mounting secret surveillance cameras, you can collect information about suspicious activities, such as theft of valuables by employees and mistrustful movements of miscreants. As modern cameras are small enough to be concealed, you can collect enough evidence and catch them red-handed, without having to alert them about the presence of a camera.
Keep a tab on activities
When does your maid come to work and when does she leave? How well does your nanny take care of the baby? Are you doubtful that an employee is faking his/her work hours? You can keep a tab on all of these and much more, by installing security cameras at strategic locations.
Maintain adequate records
By continuously transmitting the recorded footages on to a central database, you can use both wired and wireless CCTV systems to your advantage. If you want to review something that happened a week or a fortnight ago, you can watch them at your convenience and make informed decisions.
With these advantages, you can ensure safety for yourself, and your valuables.
