Improving alarm services with video verification
Responding to false alarms can be a big drain on resources. With Hikvision’s reliable solution for Intrusion Verification as a Service, you can immediately access high-quality video clips of the scene – helping you confirm if the alarm is real, saving you time and costs while also providing better services to your customers.
False alarms are a serious problem for the security industry. According to the analyst firm IHS Markit, between 90 and 95 percent of reported intruder alarms turn out to be false[1] – making them a waste of time, potentially costly for businesses, and a strain on any emergency services that are called out in response.
To address this, some alarm companies are using video verification: live footage of the event which triggered the alarm. This should enable users to visually verify the source of the alarm, and identify false alarms before any resources are dispatched. Law enforcement teams may also use the video as evidence for further investigation where necessary.
However, most video verification systems on the market typically send users low resolution, static imagery of the alarm event. This does not give users the quality of information they need for verification, nor for further police investigation.
Hikvision’s AXHub intruder alarm system enables the pioneering Intrusion Verification as a Service, which seamlessly unites video with cutting-edge intrusion detection capabilities in a single platform. Through this high quality video-based solution, users have access to reliable video verification for the first time.
Intrusion Verification as a Service gives users high-quality CCTV footage of intruders before and after an alarm is triggered. When the alarm trips, the AXHub isolates seven seconds of video: the five seconds before the alarm sounded, and two seconds post alarm. It then instantly delivers those video clips directly to the user through whichever method suits them best: email, an alert on the Hik-Connect app, to Hikvision’s iVMS management software, or directly to a central monitoring station (CMS).
By sending live video in real-time, the system allows users to verify the trigger of the alarm immediately. In turn, this enables a response team or emergency services to be dispatched to the scene very quickly if necessary.
Compatibility with the Hik-Connect app gives users full control of the alarm from their cell phone. Users can receive mobile push notifications of the alarm sounding, and also in the event that any cameras are compromised. They can also arm, disarm and monitor the alarm via the app.
The high sensitivity transceivers in the AXHub’s panels and sensors boost the wireless range, making this ideal for residential or small commercial applications.
