Protectas SA and Bosch Security Systems are now partnering to provide Remote Video Monitoring services to Protectas customers in Switzerland, home to two major Protectas Remote Control Centers.
Bosch Cloud-based Monitoring Services enable Protectas to offer video monitoring services from a centralized cloud server. For its small- and medium-size customers, Protectas offers a “Live Intervention” Service, with IP cameras from Bosch monitoring key areas. Cameras detect suspicious behavior and notify the Protectas centre. A security operator views video, and can investigate and verify the suspicious behavior. Through a remote audio connection, he notifies intruders that the police are on the way. Other monitoring services include “Video Verification” for indoor areas, “Virtual Guard” tours, and “Virtual Assistant”, which provides remote video and audio support to employees in distress, with one push of an emergency button.
Arnaud Ducrot, Protectas Chief Technology Officer, says: “At Protectas, we are really confident that this partnership will serve our remote guarding strategy. Including mature, efficient, and cost-effective cloud services in our security solutions, especially On-site and Mobile Guarding, make an important difference to our small- and medium-size customers.”
