Situation Frankston is a dynamic municipality within the southern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. In recent years the Victorian state government has invested significantly to further enhance this enviable bayside location as a designated tourist destination. With a population already over 120,000 and set to rapidly grow, Frankston City Council desperately needed to upgrade and streamline their security management system and processes. Before the upgrade, each of the Council’s 10 different sites had a standalone Inner Range Concept 4000/Insight solution with each site managing its own cardholders. Accuracy of cardholder data across the 10 sites was a real concern due to the manual process required to update records. Task The requirements for Frankston City Council were simple but two-fold: they needed a robust and user-friendly system that would build upon the existing Concept 4000 infrastructure and a single system that would easily accommodate a multi-site architecture, thus reducing the inefficiencies of individually managing 10 sites. It was also important that the new system was future proof with a scalable modular design, could integrate with third party systems if required, was competitively priced with no lock-in contracts (or annual fees) and could seamlessly utilise the Council’s existing wired, wireless and WAN based […]

Criminals hate lights. It probably has something to do with the fact that they think they’ll get caught. In well-lit areas, there is certainly a higher probability that someone will notice their presence, unwanted activity and report it. After all, that’s what lighting is all about – the ability to assess behavior. If lighting in an area is good then there is a higher probability that people will frequent the space, not because they can see (although helpful) but because they feel safe. Criminals activity can be effectively reduced and deterred through a process called Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED). CPTED is not new; it’s been around since the early 90s. What is new is the effective use of lighting in influencing behaviors. Recent research shows us that “our caveman instincts” can be influenced to a significant degree by the amount of luminosity in our surrounding environment. Natural light tells us when to sleep, wake-up and eat. Artificial lighting can change that to some degree, so we stay up later than we should. It can even affect our mood and change our behavior. Why do you think high end restaurants are dimly lit. It’s not because they don’t want […]

Vemotion takes the high ground in CCTV in the Highlands. CCTV specialists Vemotion have been praised by the Highlands Council for the delivery of a new CCTV system to the area, covering a large region reaching all the way from Fort William through to Wick. Vemotion were brought in to help the council implement a system that was both affordable and able to operate despite the poor mobile phone signal in much of the Highlands region. With just one public space site left to go, the project is now all but completed. “The Highlands job was a significant undertaking,” says Stewart McCone, the CEO of Vemotion. “For starters, the geographical area being covered is huge. It’s 168 miles, or a four hour drive, from Wick in the North to Fort William in the South. Secondly, we had to contend with limited infrastructure in much of the area we were working in. While Inverness has a good infrastructure, the Scottish Highlands are one of the remotest areas in Britain and obviously this posed a number of challenges. I’m delighted we were able to meet each of these, and demonstrate the abilities of Vemotion.” With a state of the art CCTV control […]

Did you know that adding security measures after the design process has reached the 35% designed phase can increase the cost of a construction project by 20%-30% in the short term and much more in the long term?  Think about it.  This factor is caused by the need to re-design and restructure the utility schemes so that the additional security features that are added can be accommodated.  Adding security solutions at the beginning of a project may add a mere 2% to the overall project costs.  Let’s look at why. Most buildings are designed for aesthetics and not for the threats that the building or occupants must face – whether those threats are man-made or from natural causes.  Architects love to get their creative juices down on paper.  The more intriguing the design the better they feel.  On the other hand engineers, look at blueprints or plans and ask the question, why is this like that when it would be more logical if it were like this instead.   When I joke with my engineer friends I recite this old axiom; Positive people see the glass as half-full, while negative people see it as half-empty.  Engineers want to know why the […]

ProxTech International has released its latest development in NFC/RFID read-/write systems : the COMPACT-ISO modules. With the newest terminals on the market becoming smaller by the minute, space has become a very important criterion when selecting the best suited integration module for RFID applications. Also the RFID technology by the module has won on importance. Since many end-users ae already making use of RFID for various applications, it is clear that they will be very reluctant to throw all their existing tags out to have them replaced by other ones, simply because your new terminal is not supporting their tags. COMPACT-ISO is bringing a solution for both these issues ! The multi-ISO COMPACT module is a modern 13.56 MHz RFID module, supporting simultaneously ISO14443A, ISO15693 and NFC technologies and is extremely small sized : 30,5 x 25,5 x 3,8 mm. COMPACT-ISO is developed with special attention for highest technical integration flexibility (e.g.: 3,3 Vdc to 5,0 Vdc) and UART or USB interface for data output. This extremely versatile and small-sized 13.56 MHz RFID module can thus easily be integrated in different applications such as time & attendance terminals, POS systems, vending machines, handheld and desktop readers, … MAIN FEATURES : […]

A Master NTP Server that saves time and money. Network Time Synchronization is important: every aspect of maintaining an IT or security surveillance network requires accurate knowledge of when events have happened. If you were to assume that the little clock on the bottom right hand corner of your screen was inherently accurate you would be sadly disappointed. Many clocks which support network devices, IT servers or workstations are rarely checked after an initial manual setup, and backed-up by a battery-based, clock-calendar programme that has no capacity for negating time drift which can sometimes amount to 1 second per day and perhaps minutes, or hours, over longer periods. Considering that DVR and NVR systems should run unattended for months, or years, to allow this to happen in an environment where the veracity of evidential data requires accurate time-stamping is not appropriate. Trying to accurately match time logs between IP devices on a network without synchronised time is a challenge, perhaps impossible, as this is the only frame of reference between all IP devices. Implications exist when time is mis-matched: financial services may be legally required to demonstrate accurate timekeeping; security breaches and CCTV data must match timestamps to be effective.

Personal computer/Smart card or PC/SC is a standard that allows computers to interface with smartcards, and is available on most operating systems, including Windows and Linux. It has been developed to facilitate the introduction of smart cards into the world of PCs. The advantage of PC/SC is that applications do not have to connect through a specific and different interface of the smart card reader to communicate with the smart card. This application can function with any reader that complies with the PC/SC standard. At the time that PC/SC was designed, smartcards were only contact cards. When it comes to RFID (such as Mifare or LEGIC for instance), RFID readers often fail to comply with PC/SC. Fortunately, ProxTech’s MULTITOP PC/SC readers enables the use of MIFARE or LEGIC cards on PC/SC systems, by using an embedded interpreter, converting “classical smartcard commands” into efficient sequences to use with RFID tags. With the MULTITOP PC/SC reader, every smartcard or RFID application which uses the unique serial number according to PCSC 2.01, is now able to access also the proprietary technology of LEGIC advant and LEGIC prime without any further effort. In order to allow the use of the complete functions set of […]

Innovative launches an advanced “speech robot”, which automatically dials contacts in case of an alarm. When the contact answers the call, the robot then reads out the alarm using voice synthesis. The contact can then decide what to do with the alarm. Innovative launches an advanced “speech robot”, which automatically dials one or more contacts in case of an alarm. When the contact answers the call, the robot asks the contact to enter his/her Passcard. The robot then proceeds to read out the alarm and the available options using Text-to-speech (TTS) voice synthesis. The contact then selects which action to perform, such as disposing the alarm directly or talk to an operator. Example of a typical flow with the robot: ISM receives a low battery alarm from a wireless smoke alarm. The robot automatically dials the first contact on the contact list. The contact answers the phone. The robot says: “This is the alarm receiving centre with an important message. Please enter your Passcard. “ The contact enters his/hers Passcard. The robot says: “Alarm from zone 2. Please replace the battery. Press 1 to dispose the alarm. Press 2 to dispatch a guard. Press 9 to talk to an operator. […]

Want to Sell More Safes this Month – Act Now. Traditionally many government subsidised or fully funded authorities are provided with an annual budget that runs from 1st April to 31st March. This means that they often try to ensure every penny of their budget for the current financial year is spent by the end of March, to make sure that their budget is fully replenished for the following financial year. So, if you are a supplier to the public sector then let these customers know that they can buy Phoenix Safes from you. Products such as our Fire Ranger FS1510 Series Fire Cupboards and the FS2250 Series World Class Vertical Fire Files sell fast in March as they provide large storage capacities for the protection of paper records. These kinds of products are ideal for the ‘Budget Burn’ that many of these organisations do in March. Gallery

Morse Watchmans Features KeyWatcher™ Touch Integrations at G2E. Las Vegas, NV (October 3, 2017) – Morse Watchmans’ list of integration partners continues to grow with the release of Gallagher’s Command Centre Access Control System integration module for its flagship KeyWatcher Touch system.

An Argument for Unannounced (Virtual) Drills. Events can be separated into two categories – conventional and unconventional.  Conventional events happen all the time; we plan for their likelihood, stock equipment and materials, and train accordingly.  These events because we’ve prepared for them are usually managed pretty effectively. Unconventional events, on the other hand are just that – unconventional.  The thought is they are rare events and that traditional mechanism will work.  Both are simply not true. Just read the paper or watch the news.  Rare events happen all the time.  When was the last time you heard a newscaster say, “That was a thousand year event”?  Due to the complex nature of today’s societies, an unconventional event overwhelms resources from the onset and an impact on more than one portion of society; such as, the energy sector directly affects the banking sector or transportation sector and so on.  This ripple effect will become even more pronounced in the future as societies and communities increase in population due to the migration from agriculture to the city. An unconventional event in the 21st century presents us with several opportunities, 1) we have to change our mindset in the way we train, and […]

How do you communicate? Communications is vital to our everyday lives, and there are so many ways in which we do it: voice, text, email, tweets, pokes, VIBER, Tikl, WhatsApp, BBM the list is virtually endless.  So much do we take the ability to communicate for granted, that it is often overlooked in the planning phase of operations where, in reality, it should take centre stage. Take the military scenario as an example.  When an operation begins, the very first thing that will be established is a communications link between the front line and those directing operations.  Without it the commanders can neither issue instructions to their forces, nor receive intelligence feedback; without communications they are deaf, dumb, blind and vulnerable and this is true for every other situation from the Boardroom to the Ops Room. When planning an operation in a hostile environment communications takes priority because we expect to have to provide it for ourselves, and this mind-set should be extended to any environment friendly or hostile: sadly that doesn’t always happen and many an operation in a sleepy, leafy suburb has floundered for this very reason. So what are some of the things we should consider from […]

Many UK businesses believe that they are taking the correct security precautions by using Electronic Access Control cards. However, many users are scarily unaware that these cards can be easily cloned in a matter of seconds from just a short distance away, allowing criminals to partake in electronic pickpocketing – gain easy access to your premises. This is achieved by thieves using easily accessible devices to scan and retrieve information from the cards Radio Frequency Identification chip (known as RFID.) This chip works by responding automatically to a signal sent out by a reader once within range. The chip then gives out the encrypted access code, the door reader recognises the code and unlocks. What people are unaware of, however, is that the access card carried by staff, visitors or contractors may give up its code to ANY reader operating on that radio frequency. Therefore, while your buildings electronic ‘keys’ are being carried, often visibly, by the holder, a third party with a concealed scanner can scan targeted RFID enabled access cards and write that scan to a blank card. RFID Secure Ltd, is presenting a secure solution to prevent electronic pickpocketing – the Classic BloxProx Badgeholder. The simple but […]

1. What is a fire safes? Fire safes are generally broken down into three main categories: Those which will protect paper documents; digital media such as USB sticks or DVDs; or magnetic data tapes such as LTOs, DAT tapes or DLTs. Fire safes and data safes are built differently to protect their contents, as each can withstand different levels of heat: Paper: 177 °C / 350 °F Digital: 120 °C / 248 °F Data: 52 °C / 125 °F Data tapes are sensitive, easily damaged and susceptible to low levels of heat or humidity. The manufacturers recommend maximum exposure to heat must not exceed 52°C or humidity levels of greater than 85%. Thus, data safes are designed to keep the inside of the safe below 85% humidity, whilst also maintaining an internal temperature below 52°C (or about half that of a cup of coffee). 2. Will they protect against a burglar? Yes, they are still a safe at the end of the end of the day and many fire safes are suitable for secure storage for cash and valuables too. Much of what the average house owner keeps in a fire safe is often important documents like passports, house and […]

Glass has cemented itself as the architects’ medium of choice. Renzo Piano’s majestic ‘Shard’ in London is Europe’s tallest building and the envelope continues to be well and truly pushed elsewhere around the globe in pursuit of construction utopia. Whilst designed to be aesthetically pleasing and more environmentally efficient, modern office blocks and other notable public buildings, shrouded in vast, architect-inspired expanses of glass, still remain vulnerable in the event of a terrorist attack. Buildings with significant areas of unprotected glass and there are hundreds just in London alone, pose a dangerous risk to life in the event of a bomb blast. According to London based secure glazing and counter-terror buildings specialist, Advanced Glass Technology, at least half of all flat glass in the City is unprotected. Continuing high threat levels across Europe mean that investment in protecting personnel and infrastructure should be a major priority for property owners and facilities managers in urban areas. Having delivered a number of building protection projects in the capital as well as in the Middle East over the past 15 years, AGT is urging property owners to ensure adequate measures are in place, as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility, to mitigate the […]
