Security is brought sharply into focus at the latest whenever an incident occurs and the press report extensively on the event, the background to it, the people affected by it and, quite often, the political consequences. What is not in the public eye is that thousands of well-thought-out security systems around the world are quietly doing their job and preventing many more incidents from happening in the first place. The hotel environment poses its own particular set of challenges to effective security, and the manufacturers of systems tailor-made for this industry have the corresponding answers. GIT SECURITY looks at just some of the many solutions on the market today.
It happens in every cops and robbers film at some point: the detectives assigned to find out who robbed the bank scan through the CCTV recording to get their first clue on who the bandits might be. The older the film, the more grainy, and useless, the images are, which is in stark contrast to the high standard of today’s HD images. But looking after the event is only half the story – today’s systems can to some extent even predict a crime about to happen. Without touching on the subject of IT ‘cyber’ security – with which we could easily fill a whole issue of the magazine – GIT SECURITY takes a look at video surveillance and also other physical security solutions specifically conceived for the banking industry.
