Nature often provides the best inspiration for new solutions. For example, some animals have developed different types of vision to match their environment – from a racoon’s night vision to a snake’s infrared sensors and a bat’s echolocation. These enhancements allow them to understand what is happening around them and detect threats. This approach works well in nature and is equally useful in protecting sites from intruders.
Organizations worldwide are witnessing the power of cutting-edge video to drive a return to business as (almost) usual. But while the technology itself is vital, it’s only one part of the process.

Skills for Security, Britain’s largest Electronic Fire and Security training provider has awarded Matthew Aindow Apprentice of the Year after scoring 93% in his End Point Assessment (EPA).
A significant aspect of security surveillance is motion detection. With a small movement, people or vehicles reveal their presence. Their movement makes them stand out from static objects, installations, and the environment. This way, a movement can be clearly identified in an area meant to be protected. In order to expose burglars, it is also important for monitoring to be as inconspicuous as possible – and for it to preferably go completely unnoticed. This can be achieved through the use of sensors that monitor the activities invisibly and without contact. They provide the digital movement information conveniently from a distance and serve as triggers for automated security measures.

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.
The latest addition to the Wisenet P ‘Premium’ camera series removes the risk that important video evidence might be missed when there is a need to monitor two adjacent sides of a building.
Each time home security system is triggered, there is a large chance for it to be just a false alarm, and if such alarm is not verified as false in short time, there is a high probability the emergency responders get to the place to see nothing happened. Not only such situations are embarrassing for everyone involved, they are also costly and overall troublesome.
