Helping Security Operations Teams Do More With Less

The Cost of Traditional Security Operations 

Traditional security operations rely heavily on security guards and operators. There are three primary ways to provide security for facilities: human guards, remote guarding, or a hybrid approach.  The costs associated with each approach vary based on the utilization of guards, operators, and technology.

Security by  the Numbers*

$72,000 - $96,000

Guards patrolling routes cover limited ground. They get tired, bored, and complacent. Turnover is incredibly high, which is especially problematic given the average total annual cost for hiring a guard in the United States: 

The Bottom Line:  Guards are a Huge Cost for Security Teams.

Detect Threats with Video Analytics 2.0

Most video analytics providers only offer motion alerts, or at best, generic people and vehicle detection. In the real world, threats are much more complex and require security teams to react proactively and effectively.   As a result, modern video analytics systems need to accurately identify threats such as guns, crowds, and loiterers.
