The latest surveillance technology can provide important evidence for catching and prosecuting theft and also serves as an invaluable deterrent to illicit activity.
Vandalism, break-ins and employee theft can all have a major impact on your company’s bottom line. Business owners aren’t entirely defenseless against malicious actors, however.

According to the FBI, a burglary occurs in the
U.S. every 14.6 seconds.
Burglars most often target businesses and
offices at night.
The National Retail Security Survey says
retailers lose $32 billion per year to burglary.
The vast majority of burglaries are forcible entry, not crimes of
opportunity.

Shoplifting & Internal Theft
More than $15 billion in goods is stolen each year by shoplifters. That’s $35 million per day!
Shoplifters come from all walks of life and the crime is typically an impulse decision.
Employee theft causes 42 percent of all shrinkage in retail.
Employee theft contributes to a third of all small business bankruptcies.

Lock It UpInstalling proper locks on your business is your first line of defense against break-ins. Make sure you have good quality locks and also be sure to thoroughly stress to employees the importance of properly securing the store before leaving.
Also, account for all keys to your store and make sure that only highly trusted staff have access to store keys.

Set The AlarmMake sure very few employees have access to your business’s alarm system. The less people that know the code the better.
Also, have a check system in place so that the alarm is never forgotten to be set. It only takes one time to have your entire store cleared of its inventory.
And don’t forget to have visual markers, such as stickers on the windows, stating your business has an alarm system.

Keeping WatchInstalling cameras inside and outside of your business is perhaps the most effective means of deterring theft and apprehending burglars, shoplifters and other thieves. Cameras can help you ensure your property is safe.
Cameras are best used when placed:•Near an asset you’re trying to defend•A choke point you wish to monitor
