Armstrongs + Becklar: The Next Evolution of Proactive Video Remote Guarding
Armstrongs and Becklar Video Remote Guarding have turned passive surveillance into active, real-time crime prevention.
The security landscape is changing faster than ever. Businesses today face increasingly complex risks—ranging from after-hours trespassing and property damage to theft, vandalism, and workplace threats. Traditional video surveillance, which was once considered an advanced security measure, now falls short when the goal is to actually stop incidents before or as they unfold.
Armstrongs and Télésurveillance vidéo Becklar have redefined what modern protection looks like. By fusing powerful AI-driven video analytics with trained, live monitoring professionals, Armstrongs and Becklar Video Remote Guarding have turned passive surveillance into active, real-time crime prevention.
From Reactive Monitoring to Proactive Prevention
Most camera systems simply record events for later review. While helpful for evidence collection, they do very little to prevent crime. Armstrongs takes a different approach.
Video remote guarding combines intelligent software with a team of experienced operators who can evaluate and respond instantly to suspicious or threatening activity. When the system detects motion or unusual behaviour, it sends real-time notifications to the monitoring centre—where live agents can immediately verify the threat and intervene.
This proactive model ensures that potential incidents are addressed before damage occurs, dramatically reducing the likelihood of loss or disruption.
How It Works: A Smarter Layer of Protection
Video remote guarding is designed to enhance any existing surveillance system and integrates seamlessly with most camera setups – eliminating the need for expensive overhauls or hardware replacements.
Once connected, the system uses advanced analytics to identify unusual movement, unauthorized access, or behaviour patterns that signal a risk. This can include loitering, perimeter breaches, entry attempts, or suspicious motion after business hours.
When an alert is triggered, operators can:
- View live footage immediately
- Issue real-time audio warnings to deter intruders
- Contact onsite personnel or dispatch authorities, when necessary
- Track ongoing activity to maintain situational awareness until the threat is resolved
This combination of automated intelligence and human decision-making provides a level of safety that traditional monitoring simply cannot match.
L'essor des technologies intelligentes et de la surveillance à distance
Avec l'amélioration de la technologie numérique, de la bande passante et de l'analyse, un nouveau modèle est apparu : le gardiennage vidéo à distance. Plutôt que d'avoir des gardes sur place à chaque instant, ces systèmes utilisent des caméras, l'analyse et l'intelligence artificielle pour détecter les activités inhabituelles, et des opérateurs en chair et en os pour intervenir en temps réel.
Au Télésurveillance vidéo Becklar (partenaire d'Armstrongs, A Becklar Company), nos principaux aspects sont les suivants :
- Des caméras haute définition associées à des analyses d'IA qui permettent de signaler en temps réel les comportements inhabituels ou les atteintes à la sécurité.
- Intervention vidéo en direct par des spécialistes formés qui peuvent évaluer une menace potentielle et communiquer ou escalader rapidement.
- Capacité à s'intégrer à l'infrastructure de caméras existante, ce qui permet d'éviter une partie des coûts liés au remplacement complet du matériel.
