Actionable surveillance solutions for Retailers

While the advent of Megapixel cameras has greatly raised video quality, for retailers the security and distributed advantages of IP networks have provided a new generation of integrated surveillance solutions that are flexible enough to adapt to the changing marketplace. Surveon's retail solutions combine megapixel network cameras, our active monitoring software suite, and Clustered Storage products to provide high quality video capture, automated video management, and secure video storage in a single solution package that meet the highly changing internal oversight and external security needs of retail outlets.

1. Active Monitoring Solutions

Surveon's Video Management Software integrates the management of the entire security solution. Instead of the common "monitor and playback" approach, our solutions give customers real time "monitoring", "checks" and "actions" on all the security events. With Surveon's bundled VI capabilities, even the farthest retail space can be monitored effectively. Monitoring personnel can instantly be notified of suspicious activity, and suspicious objects or events can all be marked and tagged for further security review or analysis to determine the proper course of action. This helps provide a proactive approach to securing the retail site.

2. Powerful and Complete Investigation Solutions

In addition to simple date/time searches, Surveons VMS provides advanced video intelligent search & cross- event search functionalities, which, in conjunction with a proactive real-time image database, provides an excellent solution for both internal oversight and external security requirements. For example with the Surveon VMS, store managers can quickly pick out incidents such as employee misconduct or if there is suspicious activity around store areas. With the Surveon VMS, video of interest can be tagged and noted for quick indexing and further investigation.

3. Megapixel Network Cameras

Surveon Megapixel cameras raise the quality of surveillance video above the level previously attainable. Whether surveying a checkout stand, or parking lot, a megapixel solution can be used for effective internal fraud control or external facility security, and with the stability provided by Surveons industrial-grade design, can more reliably and effectively provide the security required by modern retail establishments.

4. Enterprise Megapixel Storage Solutions

The accuracy and reliability of the stored video is of the utmost importance to retailers. Under the high I/O loads common in multiple megapixel camera setups, traditional storage solutions are unable to guarantee data integrity and security. Surveon Video Storage utilizes Infortrends latest hardware RAID engine. In addition to providing enterprise-level stability, our solutions provide exemplary storage performance even under RAID rebuild or degrade modes. Also, unlike traditional separated VMS and storage solutions, Surveon storage and VMS products are highly integrated, providing the best interworking and high reliability storage for your video security solution.
