Happy Labor Day!

Here's a nice surveillance and access control system I found out in the wild. They also had a Ubiquiti elevator kit (not pictured).

What makes AI the most effective?

When it's coupled with human verification!

Does the local homelessness population factor into your workplace violence prevention plan?

If not, it probably should!

Downtown areas are often a g*thering point for such populations.

With that comes the usual items to consider:

• Petty theft
• Copper theft (Tesla Superchargers as a prime example)
• Fires

Speaking with locals in the Santa Barbara area, while assisting clients with recordings retrieval, I've seen and heard a lot of horror stories...

The most concerning story comes from the food service industry.

Imagine getting off work at 12 am and walking out the back entrance, only to be met by a car full of people in an otherwise empty parking lot observing your every movement.

This was the story for a couple of female servers.

Thankfully, they notified their manager and organized a group to walk each other to their cars.

Your workplace violence prevention plan needs to be comprehensive.

Don't let something with dire consequences slip through.

Remote location security system installs can be challenging...

But, I think they are an interesting challenge.

If something appears normal from an outside perspective, it will likely go unnoticed.

Don't make it easy to get away with.

Effective security often requires a layered approach.

Make sure your security layers intentionally align with your accepted risk.
