Frequently Asked Questions
Why do criminals target commercial construction sites?
Most worksites lack adequate security, oftentimes relying on just one or two security guards per access point, as well as outdated manual video screen monitoring. And unlike other establishments, construction sites are conspicuous in their activities, expensive equipment use and materials. This visibility adds to their susceptibility to criminal threats. It is important for construction sites to reassess their current security measures, considering both conventional risks and circumstances.
Why is cyber and physical security important for commercial construction sites?
Insufficient security measures can cause construction companies major financial losses, project delays, and unsafe work conditions. By establishing sound security protocols that include cyber security measures and reconfiguring existing surveillance systems to achieve compatibility with solutions like AI Video Analytics, construction firms can protect their investments, safeguard employees, and prevent theft, unauthorized access, and other unlawful activities.
