Security

The summer months are upon us, and with that, many people will be taking to the road in their RV’s and campers to enjoy the summer weather and beautiful scenery found across the country. At the same time, thieves may be emboldened by the warmer weather to seek out RV’s to steal. When RV’s are stolen, dealerships are left to deal with replacing the expensive inventory when they could be selling the vehicles to legitimate and enthusiastic buyers.

As building projects scale up across the country, construction sites continue to be targets for thieves as they contain a host of valuable materials that are often easily accessible. How can we help prevent construction site theft?

Many municipal properties require protection – city halls, public works, parks and recreation centres, community spaces, and more. Because of their position within the communities they serve, they are easy targets for trespassing, theft, vandalism and other crimes. When these crimes do occur, they lead to significant expenses for municipalities to repair and replace the damage – thus leading to delays in local projects and community initiatives.

Distribution centres and warehouses play an important role in the supply chain – they are hubs of people and inventory, and centralized locations where trucks load up to transport valuable and essential cargo. What happens when thieves strike at these properties and steal essential inventory?

As building efforts scale up across the country, security concerns also come into focus. Theft is a major concern for construction sites of all kinds, as criminals target the valuable materials left on-site. However, vandalism is also a major pain point on construction sites as criminals strike in a variety of ways – which in turn slows down building progress and delays the completion of construction projects.

Third Shift Workers make many sacrifices in their lives to ensure that businesses stay operational and services are available after-hours. How does our dedicated Live Remote Video Monitoring team provide effective after-hours security protection?

May 1st is First Responders Day in Ontario – each year this day is observed to acknowledge the valuable contributions of who those who protect and preserve life, property, and the environment during emergency situations. First responders include Police officers, firefighters, paramedics, nurses, doctors, military personnel, and more. As a security provider, we collaborate with First Responders on a daily basis to assess and address a host of different incidents across a multitude of industries and sites – Police, Emergency Medical Services, and Fire Departments.

As Earth Month continues, we are highlighting how we help to protect industries that contribute to global sustainability & those that implement improved sustainability measures to preserve our Mother Earth. Mining plays a key role in many industries – mining for valuable resources such as diamonds and precious metals, while also doing so in as sustainable and eco-friendly manner as possible.

As Earth Month continues, we’re highlighting the ways we practice sustainability as a security provider. Many of the properties we protect are remote sites where power sources and wired Internet infrastructure aren’t readily available – construction sites, critical infrastructure, recycling facilities, and more. As such, these properties require a proactive security solution that can operate free of traditional power and network connections, while also doing so in an eco-friendly and sustainable manner.

As we continue to observe Earth Month throughout the month of April, we are taking the opportunity to highlight industries that help contribute to global sustainability which have been impacted by crime – and how proactive security measures can help protect and preserve these industries.
