It’s important to understand the risks that any business faces when it comes to day to day fraudulent activities. With a tightening economic landscape, any minor incident can have a knock on effect later down the line. Keeping up to speed with the latest advancements in business intelligence solutions is crucial in helping business owners tackle fraud and protect their margins.

CCTV is rapidly becoming one of the hottest topics in our sector with more and more businesses recognising the essential role it plays. Not only does CCTV act as a business’ eyes and ears, but it also monitors activity, operates as a deterrent and performs a crucial security function during the everyday running of a business.

CCTV can also monitor staff performance, register the quality of customer service and link to POS data, all invaluable tools for operating effectively within a fast-paced, increasingly competitive industry. The latest innovations have the additional advantage of real-time web-based reporting linked to CCTV footage, allowing instant access to footage of suspicious transactions.
