ISC West Expo Reveals Need for Sensible Long Term Video Surveillance Retention
I attended the International Security Conference West (ISC West) in Las Vegas last week. The show was well attended with some 20,000 visitors packing the aisles and mobbing the booths of some 650 vendors. The show covers everything from video surveillance to computer and communications security, to physical plant security, loss prevention, and more.
Physical Security a Top Priority for Campus Security
Campus life, whether elementary, high school, college, or corporate are intended to be secure places where people can learn, grow, and work. Campuses around the world, nevertheless, have seen violent incidents and threats, and it seems to be increasing in recent years. As a result, Campuses must prioritize physical security measures to guarantee the security of their instructors, staff, students, and visitors.
Video Surveillance In Traffic Management
The safe and effective movement of people and products on roads, highways, and other transportation networks depends in large part on effective traffic management. Video surveillance has developed into a crucial tool for managing traffic, enabling officials to monitor traffic flow, spot traffic infractions, and promptly address situations. The significance of video surveillance in traffic management and its advantages for drivers and traffic authorities will be discussed in this article.
Physical Security Challenges At Country Borders
The government and the general public have long been extremely concerned about the physical security of the United States’ borders. The security of the borders, which comprise the coastline and the northern and southern borders, is crucial for the safety and development of the nation since they serve as important points of entry for both products and people.
Advancements in Airport Security with Video Surveillance
By Jay Jason Bartlett Airport security is a crucial aspect of air travel since it safeguards the safety and security of passengers, employees, and aircraft. In reaction to the rise in terrorism and other security threats, airports have implemented a number of security measures to fortify their defenses. One of the biggest advancements in airport […]
Testing Physical Security Systems: Ensuring The System Is Working Properly
Physical security systems play a critical role in protecting people, property, and assets from unauthorized access, theft, vandalism, and other forms of harm. These systems range from alarm systems and perimeter fence to surveillance cameras and access control devices and they need to be inspected frequently to make sure they are operating properly and offering sufficient security. Testing the physical security systems that we have spent significant expense into installing into our environments involves evaluating their performance and detecting any vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers.
Outdoor Events and Nomadic Surveillance Cameras: A General Overview
In recent years, the usage of mobile security cameras at outdoor events has grown in popularity. For event planners wishing to improve their security and monitoring capabilities, these cameras offer a versatile and portable alternative. Nomadic cameras can aid in ensuring the participants’ safety and the success of any major gathering, including concerts, festivals, sporting events, and other types of events. In this article, we will highlight the advantages of employing mobile cameras and other security equipment as well as how they may benefit security workers and event planners.
Video Surveillance In No-Light / Low-Light Conditions
Video surveillance cameras are frequently used in a variety of settings to provide protection and security. However, these cameras frequently have lighting problems, especially at night or in dimly lit environments. The capacity to record clear video may actually be hampered by these lighting circumstances, which may even threaten the surveillance system’s overall performance. These circumstances make low-light or no-light video security cameras useful because they can record precise and clear video in low lighting.
Autonomous Physical Security: Advancements And Future Prospect
As we know it, physical security is the protection of personnel, property, and assets from theft, damage, or unauthorized access. With the advancement of technology, physical security has evolved from traditional methods such as access control systems, video surveillance cameras, and human security guards to autonomous systems, providing enhanced protection and improved operational efficiency. Autonomous physical security refers to the integration of advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), robotics, and internet of things (IoT), to create self-sufficient security systems that can operate without human intervention.
Physical Security And Cyber Security: Two Layers Of An Overall Security Solution
Physical security is a crucial aspect of cyber security as it deals with the protection of the tangible components of a computer system. Given that it involves safeguarding the actual physical parts of a computer system, physical security is an essential component of cyber security. The elements of physical security include protecting workstations, servers, storage systems, and other pieces of gear. To guarantee the privacy, accuracy, and availability of the data stored and processed on these systems, these assets must be physically protected.
LTO Storage In a Video Surveillance Infrastructure
In addition to their high capacity, cost-effectiveness, and durability, LTO tapes are now found in systems that are easy to use for the video surveillance operator.
Retention Challenges in Video Surveillance Storage
Video surveillance retention is the practice of keeping recorded footage from security cameras for a specified period of time. While this technology can be beneficial in solving crimes and monitoring security, it is not without its limitations. One of the biggest limitations of video surveillance retention is the cost involved. Installing and maintaining a video surveillance system can be expensive, and the cost of storing the recorded footage can add up quickly.
FUJIFILM Releases Video Surveillance Retention Cost Calculator
FUJIFILM Recording Media U.S.A., Inc. announced the release of an online calculator designed to help video surveillance (VS) industry professionals assess the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for long-term retention of video surveillance content. Today?s low-cost, high-resolution cameras combined with longer-term retention requirements are driving video content storage costs upwards across the VS industry and leading many to take a new look at their storage strategy.
