WHAT THIS SERVICE COVERS
Eyes on Your Property When Nobody Is There in Person
Where a permanent post is not cost-effective, Remote Security Monitoring puts staff behind the cameras. Operators watch live feeds and assess motion or alarm signals, then contact management, dispatch patrol, or notify emergency services under the site's response plan.
Monitoring connects camera coverage to action. Personnel review what is happening, follow the agreed response steps, and provide time-stamped records of observations and notifications to the client.
Alarm Response
Monitoring staff assess incoming alarms and immediately escalate verified threats under the response process.
Real-Time Escalation
Observed security events trigger the site's agreed next steps, which can include client contact, patrol dispatch, or emergency-service notification.
Documented Activity Log
Time-stamped logs preserve observations, alarm responses, monitoring activity, and escalation actions for client review.
Specific Monitoring Functions
Review live video feeds from connected cameras across the property, actively monitoring for unauthorized access, suspicious activity, and safety concerns.
Live Video Monitoring
Receive and triage alarm signals, classifying verified incidents from false triggers and routing each to the appropriate response path.
Alarm Signal Triage
Follow the client-defined escalation protocol upon detecting a security event, contacting the property manager, dispatching patrol, or notifying emergency services.
Escalation Protocol Execution
Coordinate dispatch of DPS licensed patrol guards to the property when a verified event warrants physical on-site response.
Patrol Dispatch Coordination
Log all monitoring activity, observations, alarm events, and escalation actions with timestamps, creating a complete documented record of every shift.

Remote Monitoring That Is
Connected, Responsive, and Documented.
Multi-Camera Feed Management
Operators oversee several live views, prioritizing motion alerts so active events receive immediate attention.
Integrated Alarm and Video Response
One platform puts alarm signals beside the corresponding camera view, letting operators assess both together.
Documented Escalation Timeline
Each escalation entry records the contact, time, and information communicated, creating an auditable response history.
Patrol Dispatch Integration
When needed, operators coordinate patrol through the platform and record dispatch, arrival, and the guard's findings.
"Effective Remote Security Monitoring depends on attentive operators and clear procedures for the moment an issue appears."

DPS Licensing and Monitoring Standards
DPS Licensed via TOPS, B31064101

Property Onboarding and Escalation Setup
Before monitoring starts, onboarding records the camera layout, escalation contacts, alarm thresholds, and dispatch rules.
Who This Service Is Right For

Distribution and warehouse sites needing overnight camera oversight with active operators and a patrol-response option.
Commercial Properties
Commercial and office buildings using after-hours monitoring to cover the period outside business operations.
Retail Centers
Shopping and strip centers pairing overnight camera oversight with prompt escalation to discourage break-ins and vandalism.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to install new cameras to use remote monitoring? +
We assess existing cameras during onboarding for compatibility with Security Guard Grid. If coverage has gaps, we can recommend additions; an adequate existing system does not need wholesale replacement.
What happens when monitoring personnel see something suspicious? +
Your configured escalation procedure sets the response. A typical sequence contacts the primary manager, sends patrol if physical attendance is warranted, and notifies police if the event reaches that threshold. Each action is time-stamped.
How is the escalation contact tree configured? +
At onboarding, you choose the contacts, priority order, event triggers, and escalation timing for unanswered notifications. The platform allows you to update those settings whenever needed.
Can I watch my own cameras while monitoring is active? +
Yes. During monitoring hours, you can view live feeds in Security Guard Grid at the same time as our operators.
What documentation is provided after a monitoring incident? +
The incident record includes the trigger, video timestamp, actions taken, contacts reached, and outcome. It is immediately available in the platform in a format suited to management or insurance reporting.
