Hidden Cameras, Hidden Eyes
Hidden cameras are the perfect solution to enhance the security infrastructure of your business. Ideal for areas not easily accessible, areas that are not well lit and areas that prove themselves to be high risk in terms of the propensity for theft – such as stock rooms, warehouses and payroll offices – hidden cameras are essentially hidden eyes that see all. Even knowing that there are hidden cameras on the premises has proven a strong deterrent for would-be criminals, and you can rest assured that everything your hidden cameras sees can be recorded, stored and used as evidence if necessary. Contact us today to find out more about our range of hidden cameras to ensure you always have an eye on your business.
CCTV stands for closed circuit television and integrates a security camera that sends video feed directly to a monitor. You can choose between a digital or analogue camera to provide you with an image of a certain area. The feed can be sent to a number of monitoring devices including a television set, computer screen and a laptop. The cameras can have motion detectors attached to them to turn them on or alert you as soon as the camera detects movement. You can also install infrared cameras to ensure that you have great visibility in dimly lit areas or at night.
Constant Surveillance and Good Security Are Inseparable
Many business owners would say install surveillance and security is assured, and they would not be far wrong. Not just in South Africa, but all around the world, individuals and companies are finding that one of the most powerful ways in which to maintain a secure environment is to keep a constant watch over it. CCTV cameras such as those available from IDtek are now seen everywhere.
Whether in giant supermarkets or small convenience stores; in the lobbies of banks or overlooking ATMs; guarding the access to townhouse complexes or to individual homes; these cameras provide reliable surveillance and security around the clock.
Leveraging the Latest Technology
Closed circuit television, as its name implies, directs the signal from cameras within a network via cables to one or more stations equipped with computers and monitors. No signal is ever broadcast externally and so the images are only available to those with access to the network.
While this type of wired system may be perfect in a wide range of situations, on occasions, it
could be a distinct advantage to be able to access images from outside the network. Surveillance and security can be conducted safely without broadcasting a signal that could be intercepted. Instead, it may be streamed to a password protected web page using the internet. In this way an absentee restaurant or shop owner can keep an eye on staff activity and occupancy whilst at home or even on holiday. In some of the more advanced systems, motion sensors, if triggered, are even able to automatically relay video footage of an intruder directly to a nominated smart phone.
An Aid to Prosecution
The presence of surveillance and security cameras normally has the natural effect of acting as a deterrent when they are clearly visible, although a seasoned criminal may sometimes incapacitate them and even erase recordings.
When disguised, well concealed or simply unnoticed, footage collected of a shoplifter or pickpocket in action, for instance, is now accepted by the courts as evidence that may be used to secure a speedy conviction. This can serve to reduce the plaintiff’s court expenses and excessive loss of productivity arising from lengthy legal proceedings.
In surveillance and security in general, quality is one element that should never be compromised. Each camera is, in effect, a substitute for a live guard; but a guard who never leaves his post, that misses nothing and that requires no salary. Leading brands of high quality CCTV equipment offered by IDtek provides high resolution images with either black and white or full colour cameras. The powerful software handles such features as zoom on demand, image enhancement and slow motion replay while advanced file compression technology adds considerably to total storage capacity.
Surveillance and security measures have never been more important than they are today and this fact has led to a huge increase in demand as well as to many equally huge advances in the related technology. One spin-off of the increased demand has been improved affordability. There is now no excuse for not choosing the best quality products to protect your home or business and every reason to insist on them.

It is a well known fact that people are less likely to enter into criminal activity if they know that they are being watched and are therefore likely to be caught in the act. You can employ CCTV systems and surveillance equipment in and around your place of business to help deter criminal intentions. The cameras can send a live feed directly to a monitor that can be observed at all times. The footage from the cameras can also be recorded to be viewed at a later date and to provide you with evidence in the event that a crime has been committed.
For further information regarding the benefits and advantages of installing CCTV systems and surveillance equipment as part of your security measures, please contact us.
You can choose from a wide variety of CCTV cameras to take care of your surveillance and monitoring requirements. Traditional cameras are wall mounted and can swivel from left to right as well as up and down to give you a wider area of focus. Ceiling mounted cameras give you a 360 degree view of an area and can also be controlled remotely. Each of these cameras can offer you a regular image, infrared image or you can choose a camera that can switch between day and night vision. The footage from the cameras can be sent to a number of monitoring devices such as a television set, computer screen or laptop.

CCTV equipment is widely used to deter criminals from committing offences wherever cameras are placed. A person who knows that he or she is being watched is less likely to be tempted to commit a crime. Live feed from the cameras can also be monitored by a security guard to catch any person in the act of committing a crime. The footage can be recorded and viewed at a later date once a crime has occurred to find the person responsible. The recordings can be used as evidence to press charges against individuals as well as to prosecute the offender in a court of law.
