Video Surveillance (CCTV) is one of the most common technical means of protection. It is used actively in the security systems of a wide range of large public and retail buildings, as well as in apartments, offices and private homes. The main attractive quality of video surveillance is the ability not only to detect a security breach, but also to visually observe the situation.
Surveillance is one of the most effective ways to protect your property and personal integrity. Installing such a system will allow the recording of events. Which in the event of an incident will be undoubted evidence if any crime has been committed. The purpose of a properly designed CCTV system is to enable the situation in controlled areas to be evaluated in real time. Hence reducing the response time in an emergency. And to ensure that the most appropriate measures are taken to protect and counteract emerging threats.
