Business & Commercial Security

When choosing security that best fits the needs of your business, a major factor to keep in mind is whether the company offers complete professional security system installation or if you’ll have to do it yourself. With CPI, every busniess security system is professionally installed by licensed and trained technicians. From security camera installation to a walkthrough of your new system, our technicians set up every element of your security system.

Another important factor to consider is whether or not your commercial security system comes with professional 24/7 monitoring. Every CPI security system comes with 24/7 monitoring and emergency response. When it comes to your customer and employee safety, and protecting your property and livelihood, our Real Time Response℠ makes all the difference.

Lastly, you’ll want to consider the equipment in your business security system. Ensure the products you choose are designed to work with each other and communicate with your central panel, with the latest technology and without compromising your privacy.

One way to protect your business is by adding security cameras to both the perimeter and interior of your business.

Did you know?

• 54% of small businesses have reported an increase in shoplifting in the last year.
• 1 in 4 small businesses said they have to deal with shoplifting once a week.

Cameras help you visually keep tabs on what’s happening in and around your business. With security cameras, you’ll be able to monitor, record, and review security footage of your facility and facility adjacent spaces like alleyways, sidewalks, and parking lots.

Cameras become a truly powerful tool in security when integrated with an alarm system. When an alarm is triggered, and if your system is monitored, the professional monitoring team can use your camera footage to verify alarms and emergencies, getting the authorities there more quickly and saving precious seconds when it matters most. 

To truly keep your small business safe, it’s essential to use both systems. Alarms can notify key individuals and law enforcement of a break-in, while cameras can record the perpetrator in action. 

Small business crime doesn’t just happen during off-business hours. It’s also important to monitor and track who’s entering your business during a regular working day.

CPI offers an access control security system that enhances your business’s security by providing each employee with a unique badge that they can use to enter your business. Through this system, you can also assign unique key codes to employees. That way, you can get notifications on your app when specific employees arrive, open the business, and lock up for the day.  

These advanced insights can help catch any fraud or time mismanagement and help you protect your business from unauthorized visitors.

CPI Security’s new business activity analytics can help you see what’s going on in your locations, learn how customers move through your business, and more. This advanced video technology keeps you informed and empowers you to make business decisions driven by real-time data.

• Cross a designated threshold in either direction, such as the front entryway
• Gather in a particular space, like a waiting room or display area

With intelligent video monitoring, you can more easily manage customer flow through your business. Transform your security cameras into powerful monitoring devices that help optimize your operations, saving you time, money, and frustration.

By tracking the number and patterns of people as they move through your business spaces, Business Activity Analytics provides a series of insights about what’s happening across your operations. CPI technology does the work for you and automatically aggregates activity reports from your smart business security cameras, giving you the information you need to optimize your business.
