Multi-branch retailers are gaining multiple benefits from advanced integrated video management solutions (VMSs) that are easily repeatable. These include better security, reduced losses and valuable business intelligence on customer behaviour, seasonal trends and staff performance. One Idis client has a single IT manager for 50 stores, delegating day-to-day security functions to the branches.
In our special focus, we ask three questions on security for retail to five experts: Johannes Faber, Regional Sales Manager DACH at Optex; Ross Wilks, Global Head of Marketing Communications at Acre Security; Steve Green, Business Development Manager at Genetec; Muhammad Sheikh, Regional Sales Director, Middle East at Briefcam; Pread Um (Suk Bong), Product and Marketing Director at Hanwha Vision Europe.
Retail has changed dramatically in a very short time. Digital transformation is delivering new business models around frictionless, multi-channel shopping and e-commerce and, alongside it, new security challenges. Video surveillance must keep up with these developments, but without software that unifies all the security aspects, it is impossible to get on top of the data.
GIT SECURITY takes a closer look at different security measures that can help reduce loss and fraud at retail stores significantly.
Steve Green, Business Development Director at Genetec describes the status of the use of video analytics in the retail sector.
