Installing a surveillance system is one of the most effective
deterrents available. The FBI reports that in 2006 there were 2.1 million reported burglaries (that is 740 out of every 100,000 properties). Of these, 66% were residential. Many burglars are opportunity offenders, which means they are not going to go out
of their way if you have taken steps to make it difficult for them. Homes without a surveillance system have higher break-in rates. In other words, your home will not be an “easy target” for a burglar. Also, you can save anywhere from 5% to 20% off of your homeowner’s insurance if you have a home surveillance system.
BUSINESS
Retail stores that utilize surveillance technology generally have lower overall inventory shrinkage than those retailers who do not. Technology also allows employees to focus more time patrolling
the aisles.
