Within the last couple of years, New Zealand businesses have experienced a surge in ram-raids, a type of burglary in which a heavy vehicle is driven into the windows or doors of a building to allow perpetrators to loot it. Since 2020, the number of ram-raids occurring each year has quadrupled, causing major concern for retail businesses across New Zealand. In response to the phenomenon, business owners have sought to upgrade their existing security systems, which typically rely on manpower to monitor and review video streams.

In order to more effectively catch perpetrators in the act, the solution would need to be able to identify threats in real-time, as they occur and alert authorities immediately. After looking into potential solutions, many businesses decided to implement the South Security Mobile CCTV Tower.

Equipped with a lightweight VMS (Nx Witness VMS) combined with Hikvison AI cameras, the South Security Mobile CCTV Tower, a solar-powered security tower, makes it possible to quickly and accurately identify and record instances of concern, notify management as they occur, and dispatch the local authorities upon confirmation of a credible threat.
