Surveillance is a critical aspect of security for organizations, yet virtually every surveillance system is not secure, making it susceptible to hacking and/or breaches. Criminals taking control of a camera, manipulating the data feed or even deleting all of the information on the DVR are huge risk exposures in the majority of systems currently installed.
The high adoption rate in recent years of IP technology in surveillance allows for conveniences like cloud-based storage and remote viewing. However, it also exposes the system to potential hijacking from persons with malicious intent if the system is not secure.
Securing every data point in your surveillance system should be the primary objective. CSRM designs and builds surveillance systems with sound cyber security methodologies in mind.
High Risk Surveillance Certain facilities- whether they be covert, places where classified activity takes place, or where highly valued assets are stored- require extreme security measures. These “high risk” installations necessitate that every possible means of intruder detection be used because the cost of any breach is unthinkable. Following are the top considerations for securing these locations:
Intrusion Detection Systems Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) continuously track activity on your network, checking for security threats ranging from potential malware to employees violating protocols. The monitoring is typically done with the goal of notifying security personnel of the potential breach so that an informed decision can be made on whether or not action should be taken. However, IDS can also automatically take action and notify security personnel accordingly.
Elevator Shaft / Air Ventilation Systems Elevator shafts are the perfect place to hide planted explosives. All entry points into and out of the shaft must be secured to prevent unauthorized access. All elevator doors include sensors to alert you if they are opened manually or not functioning properly. Other entries must be equipped with laser web or IR motion detection sensors to provide instantaneous notification either with or without an audible alarm. In addition, the elevator control relay is secured with access detection and photo identification of the perpetrator.
Hallway Lasers Ultra-secure locations require single access hallways that are guarded with laser webs. These serve as a visible and very effective deterrent to intruders. Any motion detected will trigger lockdown gates to trap the intruder until security arrives. In addition, the power supply and data are triple-redundant to ensure continuous operation.
Floor Pressure Intruders who have overrun the first lines of defense and gained access to a facility need to be met with a second line of defense that covertly alerts security to their presence. Floor pressure detection sensors are perfect for this application because they are invisible and give you the element of surprise in launching countermeasures.
Thermal Imaging Often intrusion attempts are made after hours or at night when visibility is limited. An essential part of the outer defense of your high risk installation is thermal imaging sensors. Once a detection sensor is triggered, your team will be able to view the threat under zero-visibility conditions using thermal imaging cameras. This gives your security team the element of surprise when engaging the intruders.
Micro Drone When monitoring large gatherings or premises from the air, helicopters and planes are noisy, obvious, and costly. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) such as micro drones offer an alternative for discrete and lower cost monitoring. Depending on the size of the drone, various camera options are available including full color and infrared. Piloting the drone is done at your command center where data is instantaneously transmitted to and from the drone enabling real-time surveillance on premises or on the other side of the world.
Commercial Panic Room There are scenarios such as a natural disaster or terrorist attack, where all personnel need to be evacuated into a fortified panic room. Requirements for commercial panic room design include outside ventilation, bullet-proof doors, walls reinforced with steel, and a concealed location. Your surveillance command center controls can be transferred to the panic room so counter attacks can be launched and monitored as well as enabling communications off premises.

Corporate Enterprise Surveillance
Certain facilities- whether they be covert, places where classified activity takes place, or where highly
valued assets are stored- require extreme security measures. These “high risk” installations necessitate
that every possible means of intruder detection be used because the cost of any breach is unthinkable.
Following are the top considerations for securing these locations:
Video Surveillance Video surveillance has changed dramatically in recent years, incorporating technology that allows increased functionality and options. The system you choose can take the best of these options to meet your security needs and goals:
Option for local, cloud-based, or hybrid storage
Option for remote viewing
Array of camera options and manufacturers
Perimeter detection sensors
Complete integration with Access Control Systemn
Managed Software & Systems
IP Systems
VMS Video Management
Matrix Switch Systems
Intelligent Analytics
Detection Sensors
Intruders on your premises are assumed to have malicious intent. They could be disgruntled former
employees, thieves, or even terrorists.
Fence-mounted sensors will detect climbing attempts and give notification of intruder location within a
few feet. However, buried-cable detection is also available as a more covert line of defense. With
either system, your security team is alerted immediately as the barrier is crossed.
Access Control Controlling entry to the premises, a building, and specific areas within a building is done with access control. Security and access privileges typically vary within an enterprise-level organization. From cloning key fobs to remote access takeover, access control is rarely secured creating a back door that could be easily used for malicious intent.
Entry access
Activating/deactivating security
Energy conservation
Activate video surveillance
Storage Three options now exist for video storage: local, cloud, and hybrid (combining local and hybrid). Localized storage has been the default because it was all that existed up until recent years. However, many organizations are finding that cloud-based storage saves time, labor, and cost. By tapping into “the cloud”, you are taking advantage of economies of scale and avoiding software and hardware upgrades over time.
Managed Software
In order to view and manage video, you can install Video Management Software (VMS) on an existing PC
or use a Network Video Recorder (NVR). NVR servers are dedicated devices configured specifically for
video management. One limitation of NVR technology is that future growth can be limited because each
NVR has a limited number of cameras it can support (whereas PC-based systems using IP cameras do not
limit the number of cameras).
Video availability is a critical aspect of VMS for post-incident review. Having video erased or
manipulated is a significant area of risk that must be addressed.
IP Systems
IP camera technology has revolutionized the video surveillance industry. The ability to quickly and easily
expand your IP camera system is a key advantage.
Three options are available for IP cameras: Power over Ethernet (PoE), standard and wireless. The PoE
cameras are powered through an Ethernet cable that also transmits the data. Standard IP cameras use
an independent power supply, while wireless cameras plug directly into an electrical outlet and transmit
data wirelessly.
Unsecured IP systems can be openly accessed by anyone with a web browser. That means that video of
your facility could be viewed by suspicious persons anywhere in the world.
Video Management Solutions (VMS) VMS system options are comprehensive and span all enterprise-level needs.
Command center- thousands of cameras at multiple locations come together at your state-of-the-art
command center
Workstations and servers- get the best hardware on the market for fast processing and data
transfer
Mobility- manage your surveillance system from any mobile device
Advance Persistent Threat (APT) attacks, botnets, and/or malware can hijack your central intelligence which will lead to a catastrophic failure to your entire surveillance infrastructure.
Matrix Switch Virtual Matrix Switch Software allows for proactive control of multiple local, remote physical, or virtual monitors. The IP network is used to aggregate and transmit video data providing easy installation and flexible delivery of live or archived video.
Intelligent Analyltics Video analytics are essential in order to take full advantage of your video surveillance system. It allows you to see potential threats against your organization that would be otherwise missed and also spot business practices that could be improved. Your utilization depends on your security mission and business goals, however, the technology now exists to more proactively take advantage of your video surveillance system. Case Study: An organization utilized video analytics to create a new business flow process that was meant to lower operational expenses. A significant amount of capital and manpower was invested in the project over a two-year period to create this process. After not realizing their projected ROI, the data used to create the process was analyzed. It was discovered that malware had caused glitches in the data stream resulting in faulty analytics. The source of the malware was traced to a security guard opening up a personal email from a computer that was hosting the recording device for the surveillance system.

Retail Surveillance
Proper use of surveillance in a retail environment is a competitive advantage. Across the industry,
billions of dollars are lost annually from employee theft, shoplifting, “flash robs”, and even organized
crime. For an individual location, that can quickly lead to unprofitability.
The security and surveillance system for your retail business will not only help you to minimize losses
due to theft, but also keep an eye on your store when you are not there. Both you and your employees
will feel safer knowing that criminals will likely target more vulnerable locations.
