In a world where threats are more sophisticated, the pace is faster, and the space between physical and digital is blurring, security can no longer be satisfied with a camera on the wall or a fence in the field.
Today, any camera system can become a target for attack and any physical security breach can be exposed in seconds. Therefore, a holistic, smart, and multi-layered solution is needed that combines strategic planning, advanced technology, and real-time operational data. This is what truly smart security looks like.
Camera Deployment: Where, How Many, and Why | Not just a camera - a system with operational function |
Technology is only half the picture. A camera system that is not properly designed will not provide any benefit, even if it is advanced and expensive. Proper planning includes: • Risk mapping and identifying vulnerabilities • Informed choice of camera types (static, PTZ, thermal) • Adjusting field of view, lighting and photo quality to operational needs • Connection to a command and control system (CS) | A camera that is not connected to the process is just a silent witness. A smart camera system should not only take pictures but also: • Identify anomalies in real time • Alert in a clear and accessible way • Enable remote control and operational operation • Document securely and accessible for future processing |
Cyber doesn't begin and end in the data center. | Professional advice - security is not something you do alone. |
Are smart cameras connected to the network? That means they are also vulnerable to attacks. In today's reality, a camera could become a "backdoor" into the corporate network. Required protection: • Network separation between cameras and other systems • Video encryption and digital signing • Firmware update and smart permission management • Anomaly monitoring and threat response in real time | AI is no longer a luxury. It is an operational necessity. Through real-time analysis of image, motion, and behavior, smart camera systems know: • Detect intrusion, leaving an object, unusual crowd and more • Trigger an automatic response (alarm, gate closing) • Reduce false alarms |
