01|01|2008 Securicorp appears in Retail News Middle East, read article here

Securicorp's Loss Prevention Program consists of a bolt on or complete intelligent CCTV video system designed to deter theft, manage staff and operations, monitor transaction activity and raise alerts to suspicious activity.

Reductions in internal & external shrinkage can easily be achieved with the application of the right system that also brings additional benefits to help protect profits and provide useful data.

Many existing loss prevention and asset protection initiatives are performed by monitoring loss via data collection and using software to analyse the information. Analysing data can take some time and may only provide enough information to discover where potential loss is occurring.

Secuicorp's Loss Prevention Program provides a full suite of features that go beyond regular surveillance and software reporting products and serviced combined offering better ROI and ease of use with global implementation from supply chain to store front.

Our Digital Loss Prevention Systems consist of intelligent video analysing software and offers efficient tools to monitor and report shrinkage;

Remote Monitoring
Monitor single to multiple global sites with access to live and recorded video with the ability to download and archive video and till transaction / sales data. Group sites by stores, region, country and monitor over 800 cameras from a central station or remote computer. Live alarm alerts and suspicious transaction alarms can also be sent to remote devices such as PC's or mobile phone and PDAs.

POS Terminal Video & Data Capture - detect 'sweethearting' & cash fraud
CCTV cameras can capture activity at tills and record the transaction with the event. Our POS terminal can take all till transaction data and superimpose them 'POS overlay' over the camera image allowing you to reconcile items purchased with transaction data. This allows you to compare the amount and cash handled in relation to a purchase. You can also set rules to create alerts. For example, you can see that the customer presents a product at the till and monitor if the correct cash is given by the customer and right amount of change given back. Further features include ability to set rules for refunds. For example, you may set the system to create an alert if refunds over a certain amount is issued. All transaction data is logged in a database and allows you to view video from any transaction. e.g. you see a high refund or transaction amount in the list, you can click on that transaction to instantly display video of that event. Other benefits include instant reconciliation of takings from single or multiple stores, even from a remote location.

Missing Object Alert
The Missing Object Alert feature creates an alarm when a product or item is removed and not placed back within a pre-defined period of time. For example, an item is removed and not put back within 10 seconds, an alarm is generated and an appropriate person or guard can be alerted. This function is great to monitor theft of display items or high value objects.

Video Motion Detection
Motion Detection utility can alert staff or a remote person of suspicious activity. For example, cameras overlooking high value goods can create an alarm when activity takes place in that area (or shelf, rack etc.). This makes staff and guards more aware of activities taking place in the store and staff will be able to learn which behaviour leads to theft.

Facial Recognition
Facial Recognition presents the ability to monitor a persons face. For example, a person visits a store and staff become suspicious of that person or that person is suspected of theft and displays suspicious behaviour. The CCTV operator can then capture the face of that person and track them through the store or search for video with that persons face in it. This feature saves lots of time when investigating incidents that involve people or for tracking down particular people within recorded video. An additional benefit is to create alerts when known thieves or banned people visit the store. This is especially useful in combating organized crime and allows you to share or receive this information with other stores.

People and Object Counting
Counting moving objects can be a great tool for collecting statistical data. For example, the object counter can provide an instant snapshot of how many people have entered or left a store, great for visitor statistics or instantly evaluating if persons still occupy an area. It can count cars for car parks or busy roads providing vital traffic statistics.

Object Index, Event Reporting and Alerts
The object index search utility offers the ability to instantly search video and data. Instantly display video related to a missing object, motion alert, a persons face, a suspicious transaction or other events relating to external alarms, changes on the system and more. The ease of use and speed of search is a welcome feature with our customers and dramatically increases productivity.

Tools For Marketing, measuring visitor interest and dwell times
CCTV Loss Prevention systems can also provide vital marketing data and reporting. Advanced features can be used to measure number of store visitors, measure most popular products, number of views of promotions and even customer dwell times. The marketing team can gain access to powerful research tools to help make the most of store layout, promotions and sales strategies.

Tools For Operational Management
Operation teams can review video to ensure successful application of training and identify areas of interest that can be improved to increase efficiency.
