Site security

Secure the site. Then secure the system that watches it.

A written walk of the property: coverage, blind spots, evidence, and whether the cameras themselves would pass a security review

What this is

Most yards already have cameras. Few have a plan: what the system is supposed to prove, how long footage lasts, who can reach the recorders, and whether an insurer or a claims adjuster could use the export.

We start the same way we start a cyber assessment. Walk the site. Write what we would cover and what we would not. Price the next step only after that. A site-security assessment is not a requirement to buy hardware from us.

Walk and cover

Gate, shop apron, laydown, storage, fuel, and the routes people and vehicles actually use. Blind spots and power or network limits go in the report, not a sales sketch.

Evidence, not just footage

Timestamps that match, retention you can defend, export that includes a hash and a short cover note on what the system did and did not capture. That is what a broker or adjuster can use.

The cameras will not become your breach

Every camera is a computer on a network. We review segmentation, inbound exposure, credentials, patch posture, and cloud vs edge recording. The same practice that reviews your servers reviews the fleet.

Who this is for

We start with contractor and equipment yards: theft is easy to price, the owner usually decides, and the geometry repeats. The same method applies to industrial yards, storage lots, and public-works sites.

  • Contractor and equipment yards. Tools, copper, fuel, and machines that leave without a record.
  • Aggregate and industrial yards. Unstaffed at night, expensive plant in the open.
  • Storage and fleet lots. Access control is the product. Absentee owners need evidence, not another app login.

What you receive

  • A written coverage plan: zones, gaps, and recommended camera or sensor count
  • A review of the existing system if you already have one
  • Network and credential notes so the install does not open inbound ports
  • Privacy notes for staff recording in Alberta (purpose, notice, retention)
  • A scoped fee for any install or support work, separate from the assessment

What we will not do

  • Promise a machine, mower, or patrol robot to close a camera conversation.
  • Treat facial recognition or biometric check-in as a default. That is a separate legal review.
  • Require you to buy our hardware to receive the site report.
  • Claim we operate a licensed 24/7 monitoring centre. If monitored response is needed, we say so and point at a listed partner.

How this sits next to cyber

The same firm reviews your website and your yard. That is the point. A camera fleet that is internet-reachable is a cyber finding. A backup that never restored is a recovery finding. We keep those reports honest and separate from any equipment quote.

Later work (site models, gates, lighting, task verification) is only discussed after the site is understood. It is not part of the first proposal unless you ask for it in writing.
