However, with so many security gadgets available, it can be hard to know where to start and which ones are best suited to your business. Here are our top five security gadgets that can help boost your physical security, deter threats and keep your business safe around the clock.
Smart CCTV cameras are essential for enhancing physical security at your business premises. Equipped with high-definition resolution, night vision, motion detection and cloud storage, these cameras allow you to track movements and receive real-time mobile alerts if any suspicious activity is detected.
They can be used to monitor both the interior and exterior of your business premises, such as entrances, high-traffic areas or warehouses, to provide an extra set of eyes for better surveillance. Smart CCTV cameras are also an excellent deterrent for criminals.
While large businesses have used access control systems for many years, increasing numbers of smaller businesses are now adopting them. They allow you to effectively monitor who can enter your premises or different areas of your business.
Keycards, fobs or biometric readers add an extra layer of security by authenticating a person’s identity before allowing them to access the building or sensitive areas such as server rooms. Access control systems also track who enters these areas to provide a reliable log for security purposes.
Motion sensors can help detect any unexpected movement in designated areas and send a direct alarm or alert when triggered. They are particularly useful in business areas that are not always staffed, such as warehouses or stock rooms.
Many motion sensor systems can also be integrated with smart CCTV cameras to provide round-the-clock surveillance of your premises, especially when the business is closed and no staff are present.
A staple in home security, many small businesses are also adopting smart doorbell camera systems such as Ring. These security gadgets not only allow you to see who is at your entrance but also allow two-way communication so you can verify the person’s identity before allowing them to enter.
Ring doorbells’ motion detection and night vision make it a great solution for after-hours security and can give the impression that someone is on-site.
For businesses with valuable assets such as laptops, tablets or a fleet of vehicles, GPS asset trackers are a great way to enhance security. If an asset is misplaced or stolen, GPS tracking makes it easier to locate and recover the asset.
Some asset tracking devices also support geofencing, which allows you to create virtual boundaries that trigger alerts if an asset leaves them. For instance, if a vehicle leaves a designated area outside working hours, an alert can be sent instantly, enabling swift action to investigate.
