2.3 The Role of Security
Security is becoming an increasingly accepted part of every day living. It is imperative for
organisations to consider physical and information security as a fundamentally important element
of their overall management strategy. Suitable security must include detailed Risk Analysis and
Management as well as an awareness of Business Continuity Management, ensuring that the
system instituted provides the organisation with the best approach to achieve ongoing success.
The key elements to instituting a security solution are:
• Identify and Evaluate Risks
• Develop Strategy to Remove or Reduce Risks
• Test and Monitor Strategy
2.3.1 ADPRO Solutions
ADPRO provides a range of video security solutions that focus on remote monitoring of facilities,
but also provide excellent onsite monitoring capabilities. The product range features video
transmission, video recording and video detection systems that link to an industry leading
software package, VideoCentral, for remote management and control. A typical approach to
security is to provide an indication when an intrusion has occurred, ADPRO, however,
recognises the value in being able to immediately identify the cause, evaluate the situation and
respond accordingly.
ADPRO's combination of onsite detectors, audio/video recording and transmission to monitoring
stations, provides security in a wide variety of markets and application areas. Presidium forms an
important element of security solutions where automatic detection and verification of an intrusion
is paramount.
2.3.2 Presidium - an ADPRO Solution
ADPRO Presidium and Presidium Mini, in conjunction with the other Xtralis products, are ideally
suited for security solutions where the risk is illegal intrusion into a high value asset. The
Presidium approach provides reliable protection of a perimeter or sterile area, with rapid
identification of the cause of any intrusion within that perimeter.
The Presidium system, coupled with other ADPRO technologies, can form an important link in
responding to different scenarios:
• A remotely monitored standard Presidium System, linked to a FastTrace or FastTx provides
rapid remote response, with an option for local response follow up. The response from a
remote monitoring station, followed by dispatch of security guards or law enforcement
provides a powerful, flexible and effective solution to many site security problems.
• The presence of a Presidium System at a site can provide rapid local response. When local
notification via standard CCTV monitors is linked to alarm systems for visual and audible
notification at a local monitoring station, it is possible for guards to respond appropriately in
the minimum timeframe. Automatic monitoring of multiple video channels provides
significant security and cost benefits.
