Reducing false alarms with AI

Reducing false alarms with AI

Nowadays, security and data analysis are fundamental pillars for any organization that wishes to maintain a secure and efficient environment.
At SCATI, we know the importance of having accurate technology that minimizes false positive situations, with the objective of providing advanced solutions that not only increase security, but also optimize the use of information through artificial intelligence (AI) and Business Intelligence (BI) tools.

The introduction of video analytics with artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized security, significantly reducing the number of false alarms that previously occurred.
These alarms not only generate unnecessary costs, but also affect the credibility of security systems and divert attention from critical events.
Implementing AI in video analytics directly addresses this problem, improving the accuracy and efficiency of surveillance.

Scati offers both SCATI EYE on-the-edge camera video analytics and SCATI ANALYTICS server video analytics that complement and provide a comprehensive and flexible solution that maximizes system efficiency.

A comprehensive solution

SCATI’s AI video analytics can be integrated with your business security cameras, collecting and processing data in real time to detect true and relevant alarms with high accuracy and subsequent complex, long-term analysis.
Thanks to its advanced algorithms, it is able to filter out irrelevant events such as those caused by animals, adverse weather conditions or unimportant movements.

How it works

The use of AI in video analytics starts with the collection of data through system cameras, which may or may not have AI in the camera itself, such as some SCATI EYE models.
Subsequently, in the case of using cameras without video analytics, this data is processed by SCATI ANALYTICS, whose algorithms have been trained with large volumes of information to recognize different types of events.
The result is a system that can accurately identify real threats, such as intrusions or suspicious behavior, while ignoring trivial events.

This capability not only reduces the number of false alarms, but also optimizes the response of security personnel, enabling faster and more effective intervention in critical situations.
SCATI ANALYTICS can be applied to object classification, crowd monitoring and the detection of anomalous behavior such as falls, intrusions, wandering or people running.
The analytics available in SCATI EYE cameras allow facial detection and recognition, license plate reading, waiting time measurement, heat mapping or people counting.

Continuous learning and adaptability

SCATI’s AI video analytics solutions continuously learn and adapt, improving their accuracy over time and further reducing false alarms.
This adaptability is crucial in dynamic environments where behavior patterns can change rapidly, ensuring that the security system is always up-to-date and effective.

Integration of AI with security systems

An important aspect of implementing SCATI ANALYTICS is that it complements and enhances the capabilities of already installed cameras, providing a cost-effective and efficient solution for security modernization.
In this way, it is not necessary to completely replace the current security infrastructure.

Metadata extraction with AI and its use in BI tools

The reduction of false alarms and the improved accuracy of the technology also have a significant impact on the quality of the extracted metadata.
SCATI’s systems generate high-quality metadata that can be used, thanks to powerful Big Data tools, for a variety of Business Intelligence (BI) applications, such as SCATI RECKON.

This metadata enables companies to gain a deeper and more accurate view of their operations, facilitating informed decision making, identifying trends, improving operational efficiency and detecting business opportunities.

In summary, AI applied to video analytics represents a significant advance in reducing false alarms and improving overall security. By providing greater accuracy in detecting real threats and enabling faster and more effective response, these systems improve the operational efficiency and credibility of security services.

    10 benefits of using access control

    10 benefits of using access control

    In the age of digitalization and globalization, ensuring the security of sensitive facilities and data has become a priority for companies. Therefore, access control systems have positioned themselves as an essential tool to protect both employees and assets.

    At SCATI, we understand the importance of protecting your business, that’s why we present this post with 10 key benefits of implementing an access control system in your company.

    What are access control systems?

    It is a security system with technology designed to manage and restrict the entry and exit of people and/or vehicles to certain facilities or specific areas. This system ensures that only authorized persons can access certain locations, thus improving security and operational efficiency.

    An access control system has four main functions: the authorization are the permissions granted by the administrator to persons or vehicles for access to the facilities; authentication which identifies persons or vehicles requesting access to a specific area by means of credentials or identification; access if the person or vehicle is authorized to enter or leave; and traceability that facilitates obtaining lists of the people present in an area.

    Main benefits of access control

    1. Eliminate the use of keys

    To overcome the problem of lost, copied or stolen keys, they are replaced by an access card or key fob that can be easily deactivated and replaced to maintain the security of your building.

    2. Prevent external threats

    This time our access system acts as a deterrent. It not only controls who can enter or leave a space, but also implements physical barriers that make unauthorized access difficult and provide a quick and coordinated response to any intrusion attempt.

    3. Manage internal threats

    Access control is essential for internal security by limiting or granting permission-based access to certain areas and instantly withdrawing access.

    This reduces the risk of internal incidents such as intellectual property theft or sabotage, ensuring that only trusted personnel have access to critical areas.

    4. Protection

    Access control helps to create a safer environment for people, giving them peace of mind as only authorized personnel can access various areas, thus significantly reducing the risk of intrusion and theft.

    5. Audit records

    Event logging provides more control and knowledge about who enters and who leaves the building or any particular room within the building, as well as when they entered and left. This can be an advantage in the event of an accident or theft, since it is possible to know who was in the area when the incident occurred.

    Systems integration

    6. Systems integration

    This system can beeasily integrate with CCTV systems, alarms and other security systems for consistent and efficient protection that enables centralized security management. This provides a complete and cohesive security solution, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of protection measures.

    7. Real-time monitoring

    This allows security managers to respond quickly to any incident and make informed decisions based on accurate data.

    8. Cost reduction

    Because it is an automated system, there is less need to hire security personnel to monitor each entry and exit, which reduces salary and benefit expenses.

    9. Visitor management

    Thanks to the access control, the entry and exit of visitors is facilitated by a quick and easy registration. In addition, it allows the necessary temporary access permissions to be set for both visitors and suppliers, guaranteeing security at all times.

    10. Regulatory compliance

    Implementing an access control system helps you comply with industry-specific security rules and regulations(Royal Decree 311/2022, May 3), avoiding potential sanctions, loss of reputation or data recovery costs.
