Businesses can achieve a complete security solution by combining Securitas USA officers and mobile response with remote video monitoring. Services such as guard tours, employee escorts, entry control, compliance audits and interactive response to emergencies can be performed quickly and remotely in real time using interactive video and audio technology, with the video displayed, archived and managed by the Milestone XProtect software, stored locally at the customer sites on the Razberi hardware. The monitoring services may be complemented with mobile patrols or uniformed security officers.
According to Chris Hammond, VP of Technical Solutions for Securitas USA, "We can now offer our clients a cost-saving enhancement to dedicated security officers by interacting live through remote audio and video monitoring. When paired with tools like video analytics, it is even more valuable and efficient."
The Milestone XProtect VMS open platform allows Securitas to incorporate analytics such as Agent Vi or other third-party integrated solutions including access control, biometrics, laser scanners or more.
"Our alliance provides our clients comprehensive security solutions designed to meet their specific needs," said Mark Spagnolo, CEO of Iverify. "We can deliver efficient and cost-effective solutions tailored to the distinct requirements of each location."
Fred Stuart, Manager of Technical Solutions at Securitas Security Services USA, evaluated the Razberi units and decided to use them as the base hardware for the servers at each Milestone managed installation throughout the U.S. He also visited the Securitas command center that has successfully been using Milestone XProtect VMS for several years in southern Sweden. "Milestone and Razberi are the combined solution of choice for our hosted and monitored video services for our customers.” said Stuart.
