In Russia, officially, the beginning of the pandemic is December 1, 2019, when the Government learned about the spread of new coronavirus infection in China. In April, however, our entire country went into self-isolation, and business fell off.
That’s when the question of securing a perimeter for commercial sites during a pandemic arose. This article is a continuation of the topic “security perimeter: protection with thermal imaging and video analytics”.
The issue of perimeter protection for commercial sites, which remain closed indefinitely, has become critical. Stores, catering, offices and other organizations need to leave their premises with merchandise closed. Because of this, burglaries have increased across the country.
Hence the question arises as to what perimeter security system would work best for business owners in this situation.
In the past, security systems consisted of surveillance cameras and security sensors. But there was no analytics software.
Next came the notification system, which sent alarm notifications to the security service. The technology blew up the market, but the false alarm rate was high.
To succeed and reduce the rate of erroneous calls to security personnel, the software had to distinguish expected activity from suspicious behavior. Thus came the video analytics system that we still use today.
Technological solutions have evolved and thus created a huge variety of security sensors to meet different requirements. Now we will take a look at the top 6 types of security equipment:
To avoid problems in the security system, you need to choose perimeter protection sensors competently. But the first thing to do is to develop a system design, which will include video surveillance and other devices. Then follow the selection criteria:
Such an approach will make it possible to create an effective security system for an object.
During pandemics or due to physical impossibility to monitor the territory of the object closed for an indefinite period video analytics comes in handy. Let’s look at the capabilities of video analytics based on the example of Faceter cloud monitoring service:
But the most important advantage of video analytics during the pandemic for the owners of closed facilities is remote control of the security system and receiving instant notification of violations to the cell phone through the application.

From 2 parts of articles about the security of commercial areas we can conclude the following:
Video analytics is a necessary part of the security system for any site. It helps to remotely control the situation at the facility, without having to involve security staff or managers to control the work of personnel.
