Is security necessary if there are surveillance systems and alarms available?

Is security necessary if there are surveillance systems and alarms available?

This is a question that is relevant to most entrepreneurs. Nowadays, people are increasingly relying on technical security system solutions. However, it is important to understand that these solutions only record the existing situation and alert if something has happened. Technical means can only document thefts, robberies, and other incidents, but they cannot protect property and employees, nor can they prevent crime. Physical security differs in that it can act proactively by assessing potential risks in advance, while a camera merely captures the situation. A security guard monitoring at a post or on-site can notice suspicious behavior and prevent a crime, as well as help avoid potentially dangerous situations and assess potential threats. Of course, the best and safest option for property protection is a combination of technical and physical security, where one company not only provides physical security services but also equips premises and areas with technical means," explains a company representative. Collaborating with experienced professionals offers secure protection and provides a range of other guarantees. For example, when working with FERATUM LIFE, the contract stipulates that the company assumes no financial liability for losses incurred by the client due to insufficient property protection, serving as an additional incentive for the security company's employees.

 

What types of properties most often use physical security services?

The most common properties that require physical security services include construction sites, offices, shopping and entertainment centers, supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, banks, stores, private housing complexes, clinics, and hospitals. "Depending on the specific operations of the property, our company develops a security plan, including personal security provision, cargo escort and protection, construction site security, employee protection, checkpoint security, cash-in-transit escort, security for mass events and celebrations, complex security for business structures, and warehouse security," reveals a representative from Feratum Life.

 

What kind of people usually work in the physical security field?

Security guards can be individuals who are in good physical shape, disciplined, have good reflexes, are responsible, energetic, can control their emotions, and possess strong analytical skills. Typically, security personnel are attentive, observant, resilient, and patient individuals. Since the work of security service personnel is associated with risk, it is essential for the specialist to always be in good physical condition. "Feratum Life" security staff are former or current law enforcement personnel—professionals who have previously undergone specialized training in the military or police and are skilled in handling weapons.
