Protect Employees, Customers, and Investments The ultimate purpose of a video security system is to help protect a business’ employees, customers and investments. Visible security measures can be effective at providing employees and customers with peace of mind and also serve as a visual reminder that all activity is being monitored and recorded. This visual reminder alone can reduce or eliminate internal theft and scare away potential thieves.. A potential thief is much less likely to act if he or she knows a high-resolution image of them will be captured on video for review and future reference.. March Networks Cameras March Networks IP cameras are built for the unique re- quirements of any cannabis-based business. The cameras can easily handle challenging lighting conditions (such as light reflections from horticultural artificial lighting sys- tems), and also incorporate low light technology for clear video capture even in complete darkness. The cameras come complete with alarms, which notify users if any camera is blocked or moved. March Networks cameras are also built to last and are available with ruggedized, vandal-resistant housing to protect them from vandalism, extreme temperatures, high humidity environments (such as a greenhouse), and water (rain). Motion detectors are also included to trigger alarms and optional two-way audio helps management scare off potential thieves by reminding them they are being watched.
