Know it! See it! New visual alarm monitoring from WHIRC
WHIRC is proud to introduce professional visual alarm monitoring for business security accounts. This advanced service seamlessly integrates security systems and video cameras through the CHeKT video bridge, creating a direct connection to WHIRC’s monitoring team.
Here’s how it works:
When an event is triggered, WHIRC’s dispatchers are immediately alerted and provided with the corresponding video feed with no extra logins. The business representative will then receive a text notification with the video feed. If the event is confirmed as a threat, the customer can verify it with a click. This verified alert prompts WHIRC’s team to contact emergency services with high-priority, verified dispatch information, helping law enforcement respond quickly to prevent potential crimes or apprehend suspects.
This streamlined process minimizes false alarms, saving time and resources for businesses and emergency responders. This innovative solution is compatible with existing and new security systems, provided the cameras meet Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) standards. Call WHIRC to get started today.
