Use cases

Twenty-one situations, one set of rounds

A use case is a situation a security manager is responsible for, and the checklist, detections and notifications that cover it. Every scenario here runs on the same account and the same cameras. What changes is what the round asks at each stop, which detections watch between rounds, and who is told when a check fails. Each page says what applies, shows the checklist, and says where it stops.

A checklist per scenario
Honest about what it will not do

What a round checks is the use case. The same four states apply everywhere: Compliant, Not Compliant, Pending, and fixed.

Keep people out

Boundaries, off-hours and restricted areas: the scenarios where a person present is the event.

Perimeter security

Fence lines, gates and open ground, checked every round and watched between rounds.

Trespassing detection

A person where nobody should be, on a confirmed track rather than a moving shadow.

Unauthorized access detection

Zones notified in the hours you set, and the tailgating a badge reader never sees.

After-hours monitoring

Scheduled rounds through the building when it is empty, with a report each.

Night security

Overnight rounds that run on the fourth night as reliably as the first.

Protect what is inside

Stock, vehicles, docks and property: the scenarios where the round verifies a condition, not just a presence.

Theft prevention

Stockrooms, cages and cash areas notified when they should be empty, with entry flagged.

Loading dock monitoring

Door status, staging areas and vehicles at the bay, checked against the delivery window.

Vandalism prevention

Presence near walls, windows and equipment off-hours, raised while intervention is possible.

Parking lot surveillance

People after hours, fire lanes, restricted bays and vehicles left where they should not be.

Vehicle monitoring

Vehicles tracked as objects at gates, yards and bays. Not plate reading.

Prove it and reconstruct it

Where the record is the product: evidence that the round happened, and a timeline when something did.

Guard tour verification

Proof of the condition at each checkpoint, not proof that a tag was tapped.

Remote site monitoring

Unmanned sites on the same rounds and the same console as staffed ones.

Remote video monitoring

A site watched from a monitoring room: rounds on schedule, detections in the window set, a report per client.

Incident investigation

Timestamped detections, patrol snapshots and suspect search to shorten the review.

Lock-up and closing checks

A closing round that checks doors, shutters and lights from the camera, with a frame per item.

Alarm verification

The camera view and a snapshot on the operator's desk at the moment the alarm comes in.

Camera health monitoring

Tampering raised as it happens, offline shown as offline, camera view checked on every round.

Keep people safe

The same cameras, asked the safety questions: fire, falls, equipment, violence, and how many people are where.

Fire and smoke monitoring

Visual flame and smoke as an early-warning layer, and fire exits checked on the round.

Workplace safety monitoring

Falls raised live, exits and exclusion zones on the checklist, the site recorded at each time.

PPE compliance monitoring

Hats, vests and gloves checked per person against the policy for each zone.

Violence and weapons detection

A visible weapon or an altercation raised as critical with a clip, verified by a person.

Occupancy monitoring

Live counts and peak hours per zone from the tracking that already runs. No counting hardware.

Or the detection itself?

Every use case names the detections it uses. Each has its own page: what it fires on, how it is tuned per camera, and what it does not detect.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

A feature is a capability, such as line intrusion detection. A use case is a situation a security manager is responsible for, such as a perimeter after dark, and the combination of detections, patrol checklist and notifications that covers it. Each use-case page names the detections that apply, shows the checklist a round would run, and says what the platform will not do in that situation.

No. Every use case on this page runs on the same account: the same cameras, the same 22 detections licensed per camera, and the same virtual patrolling. What changes between them is configuration: which detections are enabled on which cameras, what the checklist at each stop asks, and who is notified when a check fails.

The one with the clearest failure condition. After-hours monitoring and perimeter security are the usual starting points because the checklist writes itself: doors closed, zones empty, fence line clear. A round that passes is a round nobody thinks about, and a round that fails produces a snapshot and a guard message. Once that is working, the other scenarios are a matter of adding cameras and checklist items.

Yes, and most do. A warehouse runs perimeter security on the fence cameras, loading dock monitoring on the bays, and after-hours rounds across the interior, all as patrol sequences on the same account. Each sequence has its own schedule, checklist and guard roster.

They are examples of what a round for that scenario checks, written the way a checklist item is written in the console. The items on your own rounds are yours to define per camera. The states shown, Compliant, Not Compliant and Pending, are the three a checklist item can hold.
