Remote video monitoring solution increases security for employees and customers and eliminates guard costs

Interface Systems announced that WKS Restaurant Group, one of the fastest growing multi-brand restaurant franchisees in the US is deploying Interface?s Virtual Guard interactive remote video monitoring solutions across its major restaurant brands including El Pollo Loco, Wendy?s, Denny?s, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, and Blaze Pizza. By implementing virtual guard services, WKS will offer better security for its employees and customers while reducing the cost of securing its restaurants by 85%.

WKS had previously implemented Interface?s video verified alarm services to reduce false alarms, and the Virtual Guard services seamlessly upgrade security coverage while leveraging the investments already made by the company.

The Virtual Guard services include upgraded security cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), speakers, microphones, and discreetly installed panic buttons or wearable pendants that allow Interface?s remote intervention specialists to see, hear and respond to security threats in real-time.  Interface?s intervention specialists can assess the situation in real-time and can either make a voice down to warn threat actors to leave the property or call law enforcement.

Interface?s virtual guard services have a wide variety of applications:

Virtual tours with voice downs

Remote intervention specialists operating from Interface?s five-diamond rated Command and Control Centers perform a comprehensive virtual walkthrough of the restaurant to check for potential threats and safety gaps such as open exit doors, loiterers, and trespassers. Each virtual walkthrough can be combined with interactive voice-downs to check in with employees.

Opening and closing escorts

Every time restaurant employees open or close the restaurant, they now have additional security coverage. Before walking into the restaurant, employees can call Interface?s Command and Control Center and ask for a check on the premises to make sure everything is in order. Similarly, employees leaving the restaurant can ask for a safety check-in and around the exit doors and parking lot.
