In today’s landscape, buildings increasingly rely on commercial security camera systems to improve safety and protect their staff, assets, and facilities. These systems operate 24/7, providing security operators with enhanced situational awareness through real-time monitoring and review of recorded footage. Often referred to as commercial surveillance systems, business surveillance systems, or CCTV systems for businesses, they play a crucial role in safeguarding premises.

Building owners and managers face a multitude of security challenges, ranging from managing disparate security systems to ensuring efficient responses to potential threats. Monitoring and maintaining various systems across multiple locations can be time-consuming and prone to inefficiencies. Integrating these systems with third-party solutions often adds complexity, making it difficult to maintain a cohesive and secure environment. Additionally, ensuring high productivity through optimised processes and secure access credentials for authorised individuals remains a key concern for building management. The need for a unified platform that integrates various systems and scales seamlessly is critical.

Convergint has partnered with Avigilon to provide cutting-edge solutions to help combat security risks within building facilities.

Effective security and safety is a multi-layered approach involving people, processes, and technologies. Convergint-provided products and services are only one part of this multi-layered approach, will not detect or prevent all threats or solve every risk, and should not be your sole method of security or safety.
