Everything You Need to Know About Virtual Guards

They Have More Than Two Eyes

While physical guards are sent to march throughout the property, virtual guards surveil the premises through the many video cameras. ArcEye Property Defense, for instance, mindfully installs video cameras to capture every practical inch of the area. This means virtual guards can monitor the whole property in a fraction of the time it would take a physical guard to.

Two-Way Audio for Intervention

What happens when a virtual guard, located off-site in a remote location, notices an intruder or potential criminal trespassing into your property? They use two-way audio to communicate with the perpetrator. Most of the time, a loud warning on an intercom system is enough to scare away trespassers. The two-way audio also helps with identifying and welcoming authorized visitors.

Virtual Guards Have AI Assistants

We mentioned the video cameras earlier, but how do you expect one virtual guard to monitor all of those screens? Well, we actually have an army of virtual guards. We are able to "move" virtual guards from site to site in no time.

Still, no virtual guard is ever alone. We use proprietary technology to aid our virtual guards. Our artificial intelligence, for instance, helps comb through video footage and catch red flags that the virtual guard might miss. This technology is able to filter out false alarms such as visiting animals or dropping leaves and notify the virtual guard of actual threats. While physical security guards might doze off on the night shift, AI assistants will always be focused on their work.

They Reduce Liabilities

Physical security guards suffer thousands of injuries and a few dozen deaths every year. Their job is risky after all – but it does not have to be. Virtual guards offer a similar level of property protection without putting the guards in harm’s way. This is certainly good news for your conscience, and it is good for the business as well. Protect your business against unexpected liabilities and lawsuits by ditching the guns for advanced technology.

They Keep You in the Loop

Just because the virtual guards are off-site does not mean you will not interact. ArcEye Property Defense makes sure the property owner is always in the loop.
