Effective security is essential to ensure the safety and safe keeping of a business’s many assets, including its: people, property, products, information and customers.
The outdoor perimeter of any site represents the best opportunity for the first layer of security. It is a defined mark between the site and other land, be it private or public. As the outdoor perimeter of a site is the first opportunity for a security system to be installed, it provides the most time to react effectively to any attempted intruders before they reach business assets. It should also help protect unsuspecting members of the public wandering in to an area where their safety may be put at risk.
A successfully implemented electronic perimeter protection system is one that:
- acts as your first line of detection and defense,
- operates 24 hours a day/ 365 days a year and
- allows security staff to concentrate on responding to genuine alarm events.
The Issues
In order to create an effective outdoor perimeter security system, a thorough risk analysis should be conducted to ensure that the system invested in is the right one for the risk being faced. The system should be suitable in terms of:
- probability of detection,
- vulnerability to defeat,
- its resistance to false alarms from the surrounding environment/ local wildlife and
- the aesthetic and visual deterrent needs of the site.
Some sites, such as pipelines, reservoirs and utility sites are often extremely remote. Whether for security or monitoring of equipment, surveillance has been a challenge until now.
