Viseum Security Consultancy, Surveillance Design and Test Expertise
Viseum security consultancy covers surveillance design, with red team testing. Police forces can model their own figures with our police surveillance savings calculator. Our security consultancy and Surveillance Design services provide trusted advice and the most effective customised security solutions, to cover all areas of concern, and also the unexpected routes of attack. Criminals with intent will carefully choose their moment to break through access control systems. They will outwit manned guarding patrols and evade the many different types of “high security” standalone and surveillance operator monitored systems.
Without red team testing, also known as penetration testing, you have far less assurance that a determined criminal will be detected or deterred. Also, Viseum’s knowledge and experience help protect people, assets and business operations worldwide. We work with organisations across many industries. We will provide a comprehensive review of the security issues that need to be fixed urgently. This results in the best and most effective protective measures to reduce risk.
Rigorous Security Consultancy Enterprise Testing, known as “Red Teaming”
A security surveillance system is only as good as its weakest point. Using Viseum’s security design expertise effectively eliminates weak points. Viseum has the necessary long and hard-learned experience to provide customers with real insight. This identifies the security issues each project must address.
Our surveillance design consultants act in the same structured way as independent red teams used by intelligence agencies and military defence experts to assess any situation by testing security scenarios. In the same way, we will identify weak points and provide the most realistic picture of security to maximise effectiveness. Our ability to analyse complex problems means we produce the right advice to solve issues. We then design the correct protective measures that will eliminate issues before they ever occur.
Best Surveillance Performance
Many security designs still specify PTZ camera systems for open space security monitoring. It is known, though, that they need to be constantly controlled and watched if they are to deliver the results needed. In reality, only a small proportion of monitored and unmonitored cameras deliver meaningful results.
Viseum-designed security installations and video management systems take this into account. Our designs are capable of being self-monitored, self-operated and self-managed. They do not require 24/7/365 operators. Some camera installations will not need central control equipment. Our Central Intelligent Video Management System will have the least hard disk storage and transmission bandwidth requirements. Our designed security systems can also be installed plug-and-play, without the need for the often lengthy procurement and installation processes of standard technologies. Those standard technologies rely on massive camera and cabling infrastructures.
Maximising Video Surveillance ROI
Viseum is unique in making Remote Video Monitoring a highly efficient option rather than a necessary cost. Our monitoring services are designed to reduce operational overheads and raise operational performance at the same time. This provides our customers with at least 10 times the value, with running costs at least 6 times lower and more than double the return on investment. Individual savings can run into millions.
This accounts for our growing reputation as today’s future-proof security surveillance company and our expanding customer base. Our customers include major outside events organisers, including the BBC and the 2012 London Olympics, international law enforcement agencies, major police forces and a rapidly increasing number of British local authorities.
Meeting British Design Standards
Viseum produces the most effective security consultancy and the best surveillance design, for security surveillance solutions that operate within British and international standards. Examples are ONVIF (an international standard), i-LIDS (a UK Home Office benchmark) and BS8418 (a British Standard code of practice):
- ONVIF – Open Network Video Interface Forum, known internationally as “ONVIF”, is a well-recognised international standard for camera streaming, storage and recording, and access control. ONVIF systems are designed to enable security solution designers and integrators to identify features supported by a product more easily, without the challenge of determining the compatibility between versions of the ONVIF specification.
- i-LIDS: UK Home Office benchmark for video content analytics (VCA) systems, and renowned around the world. Viseum VCA software engineers produce a lot of work with and for i-LIDS-approved projects.
- BS8418: The code of practice for the installation and Remote Video Monitoring of detector-activated systems.
Also, Viseum security consultancy and Surveillance Design services are available separately or complete as a turnkey solution. They are always customised to our customers’ security issues, with an exact answer to each threat.
Standards and specification
Most other security consultants still specify PTZ camera systems for open space security monitoring.
Examples of these standards are ONVIF, i-LIDS and BS8418:

Working with Viseum security consultants
What do Viseum security consultants do?
They survey the site, design the surveillance to British and international standards, and specify the cameras, software and support, so the client buys a system that works from day one.
Do you work with independent consultants?
Yes. Independent consultants can specify Viseum for their clients, and our engineers support them with designs and evidence.
