April 8, 2009—SecureWatch 24 (SW24), which offers a combination of sophisticated technology, experienced law-enforcement personnel, and other specialized security services, is launching a new division to serve hotels, schools, hospitals and other institutions around the New York Metropolitan region.
Founded in 2004, SW24 has revolutionized the multi-family security industry by offering property owners and managers cost-effective security products and 24-hour surveillance systems that pair emerging, state-of-the art digital technology with an investigative staff and mobile response teams of former local and federal law enforcement personnel, says the company.
SW24 provides clients with remote access to a DVR database of footage from their properties through a secure Web site. The firm’s team of investigators brings centuries of law enforcement expertise acquired over the past twenty years from units such as the New York City Police Department’s Major Case Squad, Narcotics and Gangs Divisions, City-Wide Vandals Squad, Terrorism Task Force, Crime Scene Unit and others.
SW24 has identified and helped resolve thousands of incidents ranging from illegal narcotics activities to arson, vandalism and even homicide in the properties it monitors. Clients that utilize a SW24 system can expect to see a dramatic reduction in criminal activity during the first year the system is in use, says the company.
If there is suspicion that a criminal event has occurred, an SW24 team will thoroughly investigate on behalf of the property owner or manager using video and investigative techniques, interacting with local law enforcement, preparing a comprehensive report and in most cases, bring a favorable conclusion to the client.
