India Corporate Security Scenario

Mumbai blasts - Wake up call for the Indian industry Leaders have rethink on corporate security policies .

Incident led the industry to decide to work with government on security and governance issues rather than dealing with it as another man’s subject.

Indian industry hit by global recession and by image of India as a soft target due to terrorist strikes and now with the Satyam episode as country lacking in good corporate governance policies .

What are the new leadership strategies to overcome and move forward.

Foremost concern being safety and security.

India's commercial security woes

More to do with the DNA of the security professionals rather than the prevailing threats at presents.

Commercial security is the gap filler between the state, servicing the general public and the corporate requirements to protect, preserve and maximize their vested assets.

04/08/23 3

Opportunity-security providers

India has a greater divide between the capacity of the government and commercial demands, therefore a much greater opportunity and gap to be filled by security providers.

The problem with the current approach is that it is still very ex-military or ex-police driven.

The overall global view of India's security remains below par, and this affects everything from investment to trust and relationships.

One of the very outdated practices in India only continues to perpetuate this issue with everyone in security introducing themselves as Captain, Major, General, etc.

No one cares! Corporations want business enablers with sound competent business managers first and security managers second, not professional inhibitors or someone living in the ancient past from their days in the military/police. If the company wants a war or police department, then then the retention of rank is appropriate but not for professional commercial security solutions.

Despite the oversight and protection mandate of security professionals, very few are actually adequately checked to ensure they meet the corporate needs and technical requirements, merely what did they do in the army/police/government and so on. This approach is a fundamental flaw globally, and emphasized in India.

 

04/08/23 4

In developed countries the escalation of cost for security begins with policy, then technical measures and manpower last.

In developed countries, policy, manpower and then technical solutions are the prescribed route for a number of reasons but largely due to the reality that manpower is cheaper than technical measures and therefore dominates the solution options.

Not necessarily cost effective or mitigation solution based.

VALUE ADD and corporate security debate

Any investment needs to be validated by VALUE ADD it brings in

Security is viewed as necessary expense. Companies making a business case from

utilizing security devices and systems to protect life and property (assets), to helping improve productivity, assist with training, and decrease losses

04/08/23 7

Leverage Security to Maximize Revenue

Vital partner to protect company assets and IP Gives management peace of mind to make decisions for business

improvement.

Use security technology to improve business processes and operational efficiencies.

End user and integrator ingenuity are merging to bring innovative services eg Video surveillance and access control services

Internet provides realtime, anywhere access to surveillance cameras, activities of employees and visitors via access control logs.

Access provides valuable information on security measures Customer and employee patterns begin to emerge.

ROI With Security Technology

Is the new line of merchandise displayed prominently in the front of the store? Do I need more lunch staff on Thursdays and Fridays? Are my employees being honest about their hours worked?

A security director can view and download footage of an incident online in one city without having to make the roundtrip to pull the incident from the DVR.

Remote access can potentially save a business in fleet expenses, travel expenditures, and time and resource management.

Be in multiple places at one time. A win-win for all parties anytime, anywhere access

Funding is now coming from the customer’s IT, sales and marketing departments. Convergence opens new ROI opportunities for security providers, who are

investing R&D dollars to position themselves at the forefront of the convergence revolution.

Pain to Incapacitation

• All previous less-lethal weapons have worked on pain compliance that can be overcome by drugs, alcohol, emotionally disturbed persons (EDPs), or by focused, combative individuals.

• The X26 and M26 ECDs do not solely rely on pain to achieve compliance. They affect the sensory and motor functions of the nervous system and can cause incapacitation.

Leverage Customer IT Investments New video services are changing the way companies conduct business. Security providers offer online services that allow a customer to access

their local video surveillance systems via the Internet for realtime and historical viewing of their cameras, plus control pan/tilt/zoom (p/t/z) units.

Customers view, store and retrieve video images from their local DVR unit, while leveraging their existing infrastructure.

A common misconception by customers is that they need Internet protocol (IP) video solutions to perform the aforementioned tasks.

When a customer requests IP video, to access live and stored video footage using a secure Internet network.

build robust IT capabilities to provide services without taxing the customer’s IT infrastructure.

these systems allow companies to leverage their existing security and IT investments.

Innovative video search

Image Content Navigation (ICN)

ICN is a tool designed especially to make operator navigation faster and easier when tracking targets.

An invisible mesh of hyperlinks connects cameras together in the video.

To track a target with ICN operators simply need to click areas in the video to switch cameras and track targets.

This makes real-time tracking targets easier and faster removing the need to switch cameras by manually inputting camera id numbers.

D mapping Cware 2.5D advanced mapping technology enables a virtual duplicate to be made of the monitored location in near 3D, improving the site perspective while enabling intuitive navigation that delivers faster operator response times to incidents.

In 3D users can plan new camera sites to improve performance of the system.

04/08/23 29

Monitoring Via Video Auditing

eVideo Audit is a video monitoring service that provides realtime audits,

notification and exception reporting of a customer’s business processes.

Connect to the customer’s CCTV system to ensure documented business practices are followed with immediate notification to customers as needed.

Regional manager with multiple locations may need to ensure his employees are

wearing the correct attire, the correct promotional items are displayed, the correct number of employees is behind the service counter, and the sales demo units are on display.

However, time and cost to travel to each location to ensure these basic processes are being followed diverts their time from focusing on customers and more pressing business activities.

Work is done remotely & customer notified only if process is not followed.

This service represents a true business partnership, helping customers ensure that their business processes are being followed on a daily basis by their employees at all locations.

SMART ORGANISATIONS

Make onsite security personnel more efficient. Having a security guard stare at a bank of monitors

for an extended period of time is an ineffective way to detect crime or suspicious activity. The result is “surveillance information overload.”

Cannot humanly process that much information fast enough to prevent or even be effective at minimizing theft or vandalism.

Smart organizations are making their security personnel more efficient by integrating video with security control so that video is pushed directly to security guard’s monitor, PDA or cell phone.

integrated video surveillance system installed at the Beijing National Stadium.

Bird’s Nest, cost $423 million to build and years of planning to protect. seating capacity of 80,000 and, in August of 2008, was a central

location of much of the Games Officials in Beijing chose MATE’s Trigger, an embedded processor for

video detection and transmission, to upgrade the Bird’s Nest’s CCTV system to an intelligent video detection system.

Trigger monitored strategic areas and critical points in and around the stadium around the clock.

automated surveillance allowed stadium management to lower supervising costs and increase response time to security alerts.

A Balanced Approach to Security New exciting technologies and service offerings

aside, security providers should never lose sight of primary objective of asset safety.

Technology gains have created new opportunities

Successful companies will complement their security message with tangible business benefits — a true partnership

04/08/23 41

Security needs to continue to grow to become a viable and competent technical skill such as medicine, law, engineering and the like. India is well short of this objective and the companies that sell product or people to suit their revenue projections are and endangered species but until more professional security personnel, companies, business skills and vendors come into the market, they will continue to exploit the uneducated client market and leave a dirty stain in the industry until it happens.

Risk management is not discretionary spending and business resilience is rapidly becoming a competitive edge.
