As a small business owner, protecting your business is a priority. You purchase insurance, use the best locks, install an alarm system, and keep important things in a secure safe. You always use state of the art safety equipment and train your employees to follow safety procedures. You thoroughly assess risk factors and proactively manage the threats you’ve identified.
The next question is, how do you manage the potential threats that occur when you or your employees are not there, or what if someone in your workforce is the threat? Maybe others who have access to your property, like vendors, mean to cause damage or steal from you, what then? What methods can you use to know what goes on twenty-four hours a day? The answer is closed circuit television cameras.
