Understanding Monitored Video Solutions for Enhanced Security Protection

We have been leading with Monitored Video solutions for several years now. The police and RCMP recommend video be included as part of every security solution, and we have seen firsthand, time and time again just how effective video monitoring is at protecting our customers. Monitored Video Solutions use the existing security system or advanced security cameras with built-in video analytics to trigger a security alarm or notification to the security monitoring team. From there, our monitoring operators instantly connect to a live video stream to see exactly what is happening in your property. The monitoring operators can quickly determine what caused the alarm and deliver the most appropriate emergency response. This ability to visually verify an intrusion in progress and pass along a high level of urgency (as well as key details about the intruder and their actions) to the authorities is a massive game changer. And not only that, when the monitoring team can verify an alarm as false, we don’t need to wake you up in the middle of the night or dispatch a costly guard to investigate.

Advanced Video Monitoring Technology for Residential Security

Complete Home Security with Video Monitoring Solutions

With traditional home security systems, all that the alarm company could do was call the homeowner to report that an security alarm was triggered. There was no way to confirm if the alarm was caused by an actual intrusion, the wind, a cat, a stray balloon or a slow code entry at the keypad. Legacy solutions required operators to take time to listen in using 2-way voice, wait for more alarm signals, or send a guard to get more information about what might have caused the alarm.

Video monitoring eliminates delays and empowers monitoring operators to respond much more quickly. Monitored Residential Video Solutions are sometimes looked at as excessive or extravagant for a home; but did you know that Video solutions are recommended by the authorities in most cases? 911 Call centers follow ECV (Enhanced Call Verification) procedures. Under these rules, they require two types of alarms before dispatching: an exterior alarm (like a door, window, or glass break) AND an interior motion. Alternatively, keyholders must confirm the alarm is real. Our IP surveillance systems ensure reliable monitoring throughout your home. Depending on security system design or emergency contacts listed on the account, this procedure can delay the response should an actual break-in occur. Our solution to this is Residential Video Enhanced Response! With strategically placed security cameras and intrusion devices we can design a security solution focused on response and ensuring you receive a timely and appropriate response for the scenario unfolding onsite. If you already have a video solution from TELSCO at your home, chances are we can turn on our Amazing Video Enhanced Response with additional monthly fees. The TELSCO security team wants to ensure our customers receive the best response the industry has to offer.

Commercial Video Surveillance Solutions for Business Protection

Business Security Enhancement Through Video Surveillance

Traditional security solutions have faced the same challenges as those offered for homes. Legacy technology delayed response, and left both monitoring operators and property owners left guessing what was actually happening at site when a security alarm was triggered. At a business, there can be a lot of reasons the security system might be triggered; perhaps it is staff trying to disarm or even arm the system, cleaners, maintenance, a system/device malfunction, or an actual emergency. When a call is received, it can be really difficult for business owners to make a decision to either go down yourself, send a staff member into a potentially dangerous situation or send a guard that it will come with a costly dispatch fee. Smart camera sensors improve detection accuracy in these situations.

AI-powered surveillance enhances threat detection throughout your facility. When it comes to emergency services, they have specific requirements that must be met before the authorities will attend, and some jurisdictions won’t even respond to a business during regular working hours. With a Monitored video solution, we take away that uncertainty. The monitoring team will be able to see live what is happening inside the building and will be able to respond accordingly. Our video management system streamlines security operations for maximum efficiency. Response focused design is the key to Video Monitoring Solutions. Not only is your business protected you are able to feel positive about your investment knowing that you are keeping your staff safe, and you are not spending money or wasting precious time. Take back your power as a business owner by securing your business the right way from the start. Don’t wait until something happens to make improvements to your security solution, You never know when you will need it!

Outdoor Video Monitoring Systems for Property Perimeter Security

Night vision cameras provide round-the-clock protection of your property perimeter. Should someone or something get into your space the right camera solution will trigger an alarm and alert our monitoring centre.

Cloud video storage keeps your footage secure and accessible for future reference. Monitored video surveillance gives us those important details that are necessary to help find who may have caused damage or even stolen from you.
