Data Centres & Critical Facilities
See the full picture around an alarm.
When an environmental alarm appears near a restricted area, the team needs the equipment readings and the access record as well as the footage.

The goal
Know which area needs attention.
The goal is a clear record of the affected area and the events around the alarm.
- Defined boundaries
- Identify the room, equipment and access points involved.
- Careful review
- Compare equipment readings with video and access records.
- Reviewable record
- Keep events and response actions in order for later review.

Possible reviews
Keep facility evidence ready for a careful review.
These examples focus on a defined area, a time-ordered record and the evidence around it.
- Critical-area awareness
- Check the conditions and recent activity in a restricted area.
- Physical and operational context
- Compare an alarm with the access records and footage from that area.
- Remote facility operations
- Locate the affected facility and review the alarm remotely.
- Incident reconstruction and audit
- Assemble a clear chronological record for investigation and review.
Existing infrastructure
Work within your facility's controls.
Review video storage and access alongside your facility's existing controls. Any future connections to equipment or access systems need an agreed scope.
- Established controls
- Existing facility, access and environmental systems retain their specialised responsibilities.
- Placement choices
- Choose where the system runs and where recordings are kept.
- Explicit scope
- Agree which areas and records a pilot will include.
