A lot of companies say they “monitor CCTV”. In reality, they’re just giving you remote access to your own cameras.
Proper CCTV monitoring means:
That response might include:
It’s structured, documented, and agreed with you in advance.
CCTV on its own doesn’t stop crime.
It records it.
The difference between “having cameras” and actually protecting your site is what happens when something triggers at 2am.
At Spycon Security Ltd, we provide professional CCTV monitoring across London. That means trained operators actively assess what’s happening on your cameras and follow a clear response plan — not just watch screens.
If something suspicious happens, action is taken.
