The team of retail and shopping center security experts from Stealth Monitoring will be on-hand at the ICSC Mid-Atlantic Conference & Deal Making, March 2nd and 3rd, in National Harbor, Maryland. We will be at Booth 324. Stop by and let us show you how our proactive live video monitoring solutions have helped deter theft, parking lot incidents, vandalism and liability issues at hundreds of shopping and retail centers throughout North America.
What Issues Threaten Retail Security?
Theft, parking lot crimes and vandalism are a few issues that threaten retail security.
According to FBI data, parking garages and parking lots rank as the number 3 location for all violent crimes. In fact, there are about 78 occurrences in parking lots every day. Vandalism and public disturbances are the most prevalent crimes, averaging almost 7 out of every 10 incidents, according to Psychology Today.
The impact criminal activity has on a shopping center can have far-reaching effects. It can:
- Hurt your reputation
- Drive up insurance premiums
- Deter shoppers and visitors
- Cause temporary or permanent business closure
Costly Security Guards
Many shopping and retail centers choose to have on-site security guards or patrols watch their property. However, this isn’t always the most effective solution. Security guard salaries alone can be cost-prohibitive for many properties. Not to mention, a security guard can only be in one place at a time. While he’s patrolling one area, a crime could be taking place in another.
Live Video Monitoring for Retail Security
Stealth Monitoring provides customized, proactive security solutions that work in real time to catch activity in progress. Using a combination of video analytics and human intelligence, trained security operators monitor live cameras to watch for any suspicious activity. If they spot something, they can activate an on-site speaker warning and call police. Coverage areas include entrances, storefronts, parking lots/garages, rooftops, dumpsters and back alleys.
In addition, our solution includes video reviews, so you can get a concise summary of what happened. This is a big time- and money-saver for our clients. Speaking of saving money, our customized solution can save up to 60% on your security costs.
