Asset protection professionals advise company leaders to balance overt and covert security solutions carefully. LVT has the overt solution that works.
Do you subscribe to the “Talladega Nights” driving school of thought?
If so, the immortal words of Ricky Bobby’s father, Reece Bobby, may swirl in your head as you put the pedal to the metal.
“Always remember, if you ain’t first, you’re last.”
It’s just you and the open road—until you see the telltale markings of a state trooper’s car ahead in the distance. As you lift your foot off the gas, tapping ever so slightly on the brake, desperation sets in. Pleas for the speedometer to match the posted limit are offered up as your car crosses paths with the radar gun.
Sound familiar? But admit it—you don’t react the same way when road signs signal the same radar warnings, either by air or VASCAR, the throwback speed enforcement tool that’s making a huge comeback?
It’s the psychological difference between overt and covert surveillance drivers experience when speeding. One causes an instant change in behavior, while the other may change a driver’s speed. Or it may not.
That’s why asset protection professionals advise company leaders to balance overt and covert security solutions carefully. By diversifying their business surveillance camera systems to include both options as a security feature, companies can see the entire scope of their operations and ensure nothing flies under the radar.
“It’s so overt, it’s covert,” Robert Downey Jr. said of one his many disguises he wore in “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.”
The same rings true for business surveillance camera systems.
As mounted business surveillance cameras become more ubiquitous, people expect to see and be seen while they shop, travel, vote, and go into the office. While people may not notice each camera, as it’s common for a person not to see the particular details of their day-to-day environment, they know a camera is watching.
And people behave differently when a camera is in sight. Of course, this includes bad actors, who may intend to steal or cause damage to your property, as well as your customers and employees.
At LiveView Technologies, we see how effective overt security measures are in stopping incidents by changing human behavior. That’s by design because an LVT Unit is hard to miss. A fully functional LVT Unit is the length and width of an average car, with large solar panels and a 22-foot mount.
When you choose LVT, you go big and criminals go home—or they head elsewhere. Our clients experience a reduction in incidents right after deploying an LVT Unit and we have the numbers to back it up. Anywhere an LVT Unit, backed by the AI-powered analytics capabilities of the LVT Platform, is deployed, safety, and security increase as crime decreases. It’s proven to decrease violent crime by more than 60%, parking lot incidents by 70%, and shoplifting by 66%.
Other customer successes include:
· A large grocery chain had 15 shootings in a year at one store, with police responding to that location every night. The incidents stopped on the same day the LVT Unit was deployed in the parking lot.
· A large retailer experienced a decline of incidents at all stores between 40% and 70% after parking LVT Units in their lots.
· A customer had the distinction of being the No. 1 criminal hotspot for the local police department. After placing a LVT Unit in their lot, the customer saw such a dramatic decrease in crime, police checked in to ensure they were OK—and to learn what changes they had made.
These impressive results from LVT’s overt business security camera solutions proved to our clients how covert security measures often lack the benefit of deterrence. Once clients try our overt option, they experience drastic results.
Once an LVT Unit is set up as a security measure, you’ll have instant access to live surveillance streams through the LVT Platform. Our effective solution with overt security features will:
