The security solutions company, Envision Intelligent Solutions, has been approved by a Secured by Design (SBD) scheme, the official national police security initiative.
The team at Envision design, install, maintain and monitor a wide range of smart technology driven security solutions across UK & Ireland.
Envision’s work spans across infrastructure, construction projects and off grid-locations.
The Secure Connected Device is a scheme which highlights products that have achieved the appropriate and relevant Internet of Things (IoT) standards and certification, meaning that they have taken stringent steps to protect their clients or consumers in reducing their vulnerability to cybersecurity attacks.
Two of the Envision products – the ECO CCTV Solar Tower and The Rapid Speed Dome CCTV 4G Camera have received Secured Connected Device accreditation with SBD.
Envision has articulated that its mobile ECO CCTV Solar Tower provides a 24/7 security solution for challenging environments such as construction sites, vacant premises or remote locations.
If an intruder is detected, a real time alert triggers the Category 1 Envision Alarm Receiving Centre and audio warnings are emitted as well as alerting the the site’s key holders, along with authorities if necessary.
Incident reports are then provided to the clients and on request recorded footage for evidence.
Envision has reported that the Rapid Speed Dome offers a fast, temporary security solution designed to deliver live or recorded high definition images via 4G mobile transmission.
The Rapid Speed Dome provides infrared CCTV surveillance, alarm monitoring and intruder detection according to Envision.
The Rapid Speed Dome uses a PTZ camera which provides the end user with 360 degree viewing control, making it particularly suited to local authorities, covering public spaces in need of temporary surveillance.
Envision’s ECO CCTV Solar Tower and Rapid Speed Dome were recently used together to monitor and protect the construction of a new commercial complex at the Salford Quays, a waterfront tourist attraction in Greater Manchester.
Lyn Poole, Development Officer, SBD commented: “I’m so pleased to have Envision come on board as members. The ECO Solar Tower is a great product and very versatile.
“They have the Rapid Speed Dome camera with us as well and I hear there may be more products, so watch this space.
“I have known Chris Finney and Russ Ellis for a few years now. They are extremely diligent and passionate about their products and worked tirelessly to get over the SBD membership virtual line, even with a few curve balls I sent their way.
“It has been a pleasure to get them through the joining stage and I look forward to working with them.” Poole finalised.
Chris Finney, UK & I Sales Manager, Envision Intelligent Solutions said: “For over 20 years, Envision have been a market leader in offering temporary site security, protecting major construction firms and high-profile locations, and as part of our continued growth and ongoing commitment to the industry, we wanted Envision and its products to be part of Secured by Design.
“It’s extremely important to us that we provide peace of mind to our customers and this accreditation further strengthens our position.
“With having successfully accredited two of our industry leading products, we will soon be looking to put the rest of our temporary security solutions through the same process,” finalised Finney.
SBD is owned by the UK Police Service and is the only way for companies to obtain police recognition for security-related products.
