Surveillance
Black Hawk SA’s monitoring services are provided by SURVEILLANCE from a purpose-built, high security facility, built and operated to SIRA standards as you would expect from a high level security specialist.
It features a range of backup and failover systems to ensure the facility remains operational – and if all else fails, we’re supported by another remote backup station. The operator will make a rapid assessment of the situation and take the appropriate action, such as notifying the security personal/management. False alarms are virtually eliminated as all system activations are verified by the monitoring centre, thus ensuring police response if required.
As the system incorporates full audio facilities, operators at the CCTV monitoring centre can give verbal warnings to potential attackers or assistance to staff, customers and other visitors to the site. An intercom link can also be provided for authorised enquiries.
Black Hawk SA Remote CCTV monitoring has no geographical boundaries and can be used for premises located anywhere in the world.
The use of this service can reduce, if not eliminate, the need for manned guarding and will often result in a significant reduction in your operating/security costs.

CCTV cannot be threatened, it does not require any facilities, such as rest rooms, radio's and vehicles, nor does it ever fall asleep on the job. CCTV can constantly monitor premises to provide total security during unoccupied hours and can be far more cost effective than mobile patrols that provide limited coverage.
At the Black Hawk SA’s control centre, specially trained and experienced operators have complete control over the system, to identify whether the system has been activated by a customer, staff, deliveries or a criminal attack.
One way in which companies, still using traditional manned security guards and mobile patrols, can actually save money is by switching to remotely monitored CCTV systems. These security systems can protect any type of premises 24-7 at low cost. Any type of closed location can be protected, e.g., construction sites, depots and factories, offices, schools and colleges. The advanced technology used in these systems, allows it to be adapted for use at any site. When designing the system the client’s needs are always assessed and incorporated into the final product.
Unlike traditional manned security guards that can be expensive and unreliable, remotely monitored cctv reduces the risk of human error and can be extremely good value for money.
Exponential improvements in technology in the security industry mean it’s now possible for a CCTV system to be programmed to activate on the occurrence of a specified event. The digital video transmitter can be armed much like an alarm system to ensure that control room operators are alerted to relevant incidents allowing them to respond according to set procedures. Live video is sent to the off-site central control room once the system is triggered by an event, such as a door opening, motion detector, panic button etc. Even though the video is not monitored on a continual live basis, it remains active in the control room and alerts controllers to any event on-site. Following a system trigger, the camera view automatically becomes live in the control room where the activation took place and the appropriate action is taken .
