by Brianna Crandall — May 18, 2011—In time for international security conference IFSEC 2011, Bold Communications has updated its Guide to Alarm Monitoring to “unravel some of the jargon and dispel some of the mystery” of monitoring alarm systems.
The guide sheds light on the basics of alarm monitoring for those who need to set up an alarm monitoring operation, and addresses areas like security product integration and the support required. The publication aims to answer most of the commonly asked questions in an easily understood and non-technical manner. For more information, e-mail Bold at info@boldcommunications.co.uk.
At IFSEC, Bold also presented the latest version of its popular security monitoring software, Gemini. Supporting a vast range of CCTV, intruder, fire, tracking and other security solutions, Gemini automates monitoring processes and minimizes risk, delivering real value to the integrated alarm receiving center, says the company.
Bold is also introducing an entry-level package based on the Gemini software that offers the benefit of a fully functional monitoring operation at a fraction of the usual cost. The mini monitoring system can be expanded–for example, with more connections and integration to CCTV and Web services–and is ideal for alarm installers, hospitals, industrial sites, guarding companies and facilities management companies, says Bold.
