Will your CCTV installation contribute to the prevention of crime?
Since the 1980’s there have been regular studies conducted to access the overall effectiveness of CCTV Systems on Crime and specifically the reduction of crime. The college of policing report into the “Effects of CCTV on Crime” identified that CCTV has made a notable impact on local and national crime levels. The systematic review of 41 studies showed that CCTV can offer an effective level of deterrent against vandalism and planned out crimes, such as trespassing and burglary, car theft, car crime and other anti-social behaviours.
Your well-implemented, high quality, compliant CCTV system does not just provide a means for you to prevent crime, it allows for the monitoring of activity, provides a means to gather evidence and manage risks, and allows businesses to make good decisions in situations where security has been called into question.
CCTV evidence is the first port of call. Making use of remote view facilities and technical support by us to provide this to the Police as part of successfully bringing to book perpetrators.

CCTV
footage and evidence are increasingly being used to fight against
insurance fraud and public liability claims. Fake slips, trips and falls
are some crimes that have been caught on camera and claims successfully
refuted as a result. Retail stores particularly are holding footage for
longer than normal to combat increasingly sophisticated fraudsters who
are waiting longer than 28 days before putting in a claim in the hope
the footage will be over-written.
