When an event is triggered, AST’s monitoring services generate real-time alerts that can be sent to your security team, mobile devices, or first responders. This level of automation strengthens security outcomes and reduces unnecessary alert fatigue.

3. Recording, Retention & Evidence Management

Video capture is only valuable when footage can be accessed reliably. AST’s monitoring programs include centralized video management, secure storage, retention policy management, and fast retrieval capabilities. Our teams ensure:

  • Recording integrity
  • Retention compliance
  • Searchable archives

This supports incident investigations, audits, insurance claims, and compliance documentation.

This unified approach strengthens situational awareness and provides actionable intelligence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

E

What is video surveillance and monitoring?

Video surveillance and monitoring involve capturing video footage from cameras and actively or passively observing that footage to detect security events, safety issues, or compliance violations. Monitoring can be remote, onsite, or combined with analytics for automated detection.
