| Comprehensive security and surveillance strategy
|
The digital surveillance solution for retail from IBM provides retailers with an automated solution that helps ensure rapid access to, and retrieval of, digital video content. Our solution is designed to establish processes that provide virtual real-time security and safety data, allowing faster response and improved event investigations.
Digital video surveillance integration with physical and logical security offers a more comprehensive view with less manpower. With IBM Business Partners, we are able to provide remote video viewing from virtually anywhere in the network, and can begin automatic recording based on intrusion alerts. Also, instead of having a security officer call the police, it could be designed to send a live video feed to the police station. Taking manual intervention out of the call process can help you avoid undetected security breaches.
Our solution can help your retail operations:
- Perform rapid and accurate search and retrieval of recorded or event-triggered video, utilizing a centralized storage area network.
- Leverage previously installed components through IP-based access control and screening solutions.
- Archive high quality, court-submissable image capture and watermarked digital video.
- Integrate store surveillance and security systems to provide a more complete view of events.
- Leverage digital technology to implement advanced security capabilities.

| IBM digital media technology helps fight crime in U.K.
|
Electronic security surveillance can make the difference in solving a crime—a shot of a criminal in the act gives police a face to look for and evidence for a jury to see. National Car Parks Ltd., the United Kingdom's largest commercial parking lot operator, has seen crimes in their Manchester lots drop 40% coupled with a 60% increase in arrests since the new control center was introduced. Their solution? Swiveling, tilting, staring cameras in a closed-circuit television (CCTV) digital video surveillance system, supported by IBM digital media technology.
IBM delivered state-of-the-art digital media technology for the integrated CCTV Control Center, where operators can scan the car parks and streets, and identify problems before they occur. The end-to-end digital media solution frees up workforce resources and provides blanket security.
