For any organization, understanding the importance of an effective security solution is critical to mitigating the risk of damaging crime taking place on your property.
Protecting your organization from potential security threats is essential for the safety of your employees, customers, and assets. That’s why having an integrated verified alarm system is critical to any business.
In this blog, we will explore exactly what an integrated verified security system is, and discuss the top five benefits your organization can realize by implementing one.
What is an Integrated Security System?
An integrated verified alarm system is a comprehensive security solution that incorporates different security measures into a single platform. Here at Sonitrol Western Canada we break that integration down into four key components.
Intrusion detection: Intrusion detection is a critical aspect of any security system. With an integrated verified alarm system, you can incorporate audio and video intrusion detection sensors that will alert you if there's any unusual activity in your business. This verification ensures that alarms are only triggered in case of an actual intrusion, reducing the risk of false alarms.
CCTV verified video: SonaVision is a unique push monitored video - that captures criminals. If a criminal or vehicle is detected entering a secure area, push video technology immediately sends video through to our operators to view - then with this form of verification alarm, the operator will immediately dispatch the police.
Managed access: Access control is a vital aspect of any security system. With an integrated verified alarm system, you can manage access control for your entire business from a single platform. This means you can control who has access to different areas of your business and ensure that only authorized personnel can enter.
Fire detection: Fire can cause significant damage to your business, and it's essential to have an early warning system in place. With an integrated verified alarm system, you can incorporate fire detection sensors that will alert you at the first sign of a fire. This early warning can save your business from costly damages and ensure the safety of your employees.
The Benefits of an Integrated Verified Security System

An integrated verified alarm system allows you to monitor your business in real-time. With real-time monitoring, you can detect potential security threats and respond quickly, even when you're not physically present. This feature ensures that your business is always secure, giving you peace of mind. Even better, Sonitrol Western Canada has a team of professionally trained staff monitoring, and verifying, alarms for you from our central monitoring station.
#2 - Reduced False Alarms
False alarms can be costly and time-consuming, and they can also lead to fines from local authorities. An integrated verified alarm system reduces the risk of false alarms by verifying alarms. This verification ensures that police are only notified when there is a real threat, reducing the risk of false alarms.
