Alarm Monitoring Integrated With Other Security Solutions
Alarm monitoring systems are now part of almost all advanced security solutions for companies. Not only does such help to prevent undetected intrusions, it also provides addition security for business premises.
Complete Control and Additional Security
Gallagher offers advanced alarm monitoring as part of the product stable to ensure that even at night with few employees on the premises that immediate response can be called once an alarm is triggered. With fully integrated alarm systems it is possible to monitor the perimeter and inside the premises and sound the alarm upon any security breaches.
The alarms are connected to monitoring systems involving CCTV and immediate forwarding of notifications to relevant offsite emergency and security response units. Even if an intruder succeeds in disabling the alarm after sounding, the response unit will already be aware of such an occurrence.
Central Control
With a Microsoft Windows based system, 24/7 monitoring of a business premise is possible. Apart from visitors, the coming and going of employees can also be monitored through a system that entails encoded cards. The cards are encoded to allow access to particular areas whilst preventing unauthorized access to specific parts of the premise. Such is combined with an alarm monitoring that is connected to access areas. Should a breach of security occur, an alarm is sounded and the operator at the control centre can quickly assess the reason for alarm sounding by means of visual inspection on a screen. In addition, remote monitoring can be done.
The alarm system and monitoring provides the additional security needed today where confidential information must be protected and where backup security is essential. Door access control, central monitoring and remote alarming are all part of one centrally managed security system, ensuring seamless integration of various security systems. Easy operation and various check control points ensure the security that a business in modern society needs.

As the business environment becomes more complex the requirements for advanced information technology systems has also become a strategic necessity for companies wishing to maintain their competitive advantage in an increasingly globalised economy. These requirements have meant even greater investment in both personnel and infrastructure. As these investments have increased the likelihood of criminal activity targeting business concerns has also increase and many companies have chosen to invest heavily in advanced access control systems to guarantee the safety of both their human assets and their fixed assets.
The installation of advanced access control systems that control the flow of both visitors to a business premises and the movements of staff within the business has decreased the likelihood of criminal activity targeting these businesses. However as with most systems aimed at deterring criminal activity the advanced security and access control systems must be continually upgraded to keep pace with the demands placed on the systems by ever more resourceful and determined criminals.
Today advanced access control systems are available to nay business irrespective of size or the industry within which it operates. The modular nature of the advanced access control systems that are available from global experts in the industry has meant that the access control, solutions can in effect grow with the changing requirements of the business. Entry level systems, such as card control access readers and printers can be combined with more advanced infrastructure such as biometric readers to provide increasingly sophisticated and advanced access control systems.
The advanced access control systems such as biometric readers that compare physical characteristics with an advanced database in order to control movement within the business premises can be combined with other systems such as closed circuit television and electromagnetic door locking mechanisms for an effective deterrent to criminal activity based on the unauthorised access to both data storage facilities and other sensitive areas of the business premises.

An Effective Time And Attendance System
It is often said that time is the one resource that cannot be hoarded and is irreplaceable. For business concerns this is especially true given the extremely competitive global business environment that characterises the 21st century. This is only one of the reasons that each and every employee retained by the business is required to contribute to the success of the enterprise in a structured way, making the best use of both time and resources. The use of a time and attendance system has been common practice in business for generations, but the latest systems have kept track with the latest technology that is also employed for access control solutions to ensure that the maximum level of productivity is maintained in the business.
The effective time and attendance system will allow the employee freedom of movement within the business premises, but will allow the human resources department to gauge the productivity of the employee based on where they are within the premises, as well as how long they spend not only within the confines of the business premises but also allow the management to gauge the effectiveness of their efforts towards achieving specific strategic goals.
Most of the time and attendance systems in common use by businesses across the world today are based on card reading systems. These systems are a far cry from the antiquated punch card readers that characterised time and attendance systems only a generation ago. Today’s time and attendance readers are linked to other access control systems such as electromagnetic door locks making it possible to track the movements of the individual while maintaining the integrity of the buildings’ security.
The cards that are used for time and attendance purposes today can be issued by the business itself in only a few minutes. The latest ID card printers allow front office personnel to print bar coded laminated cards using intuitive Windows based software. These cards can be printed at an extremely low cost per unit and are tamper resistant due to the laminated covering. Additional levels of security can be provided through the use of time and attendance systems and access cards that feature colour photography.

Advanced Access Control Available In South Africa
It seems that white collar crime across the world is on the increase, the sheer amount and value of data and the assets that are required to both store the data and access it has made today’s businesses a much more attractive target for criminals looking to make easy money from computer equipment and the data that can mean a competitive advantage to many companies that would not hesitate to purchase any information that would give them a competitive edge. For this reason advanced access control systems have become essential, especially in countries like South Africa where a high level of crime is prevalent.
There are a variety of different access control systems in South Africa that are manufactured in accordance with the best standards as set by leaders in the security field such as Honeywell and Impro, as well as other leaders in high tech innovation. Many of these systems boast features that would have been thought of as science fiction only a few decades ago, while others are the result of the introduction of systems that were traditionally used in high end security provision for companies in the military and aerospace fields.
Access control systems using biometric readers have become extremely popular in South Africa. Perhaps the most prevalent of these biometric readers are those which can read fingerprints. These systems are extremely difficult to fool or tamper with and offer an extremely high level of security. Other biometric systems can recognise physical features such as the unique patterns found on the iris of the human eye, these systems are usually found in situations that require extremely high levels of security, but are slowly finding their way onto the general business market.
One of the most effective access control systems available in South Africa is based on card readers. These card readers can be configured to read a wide variety of access control cards, ranging from the simple bar coded card to the more powerful cards which feature embedded smart chips which contain a wealth of information on the user and are extremely difficult to clone.
