Experienced / Ceritified IP Video Surveillance Architech. 

Security has always been in my background.  From the military to IT to DVD manufacturing to my current path.

Video Surveillance has grown in recent years due to a misconception - Cameras "deter".  Where in truth what they do is "capture" activity.  What happens next is where everything changes.  What do you do with the content?

After the fact, is bit late to find out "if" the content is usable by Law Enforcement to proceed.  It is this "gap" that many overlook and few want to fill. 

Second, if your using a camera system strictly for Security, your not utilizing it to the fullest.  It is a Video - from Marketing to Customer Service to facility safety.   This is where the true value needs to explored.
