OCS Security CCTV

Build a Solution Around Your Risk, Not a Standard Package

No two environments face the same challenges. Effective security systems must reflect how a site is used, who occupies it, and what matters most to the organisation.

OCS designs every security system around the customer’s specific risk profile. We sit at the centre, bringing together security cameras, access control, alarms and monitoring into one integrated solution that works as a whole, not in isolation.

Systems are tailored, scalable, and aligned to your operational priorities, including large-scale retail security systems.

Technology Built to Support Confident Decisions

Security technology is most effective when it strengthens judgement, improves coordination and supports safer response.

  • A person sits at a desk with multiple computer monitors displaying charts, graphs, and data, working in a control room with large screens showing dashboards and information in the background.

    Use AI to Support Judgement

    AI-enabled analytics across security systems and security cameras identify patterns, anomalies and potential risk in real time. This supports faster, more informed and proportionate responses in live environments.

    Connected Monitoring for Faster Response

    Security systems connect directly to national monitoring and response functions. Alerts are assessed consistently, escalated clearly and supported by real time operational information.

    Smarter Systems for Safer Working

    Earlier detection and clearer visibility reduce the need for reactive intervention. Colleagues are better informed, better prepared and able to operate more safely in live environments.

    Turn Uncertainty Into Control

    Systems are designed around risk, environment and operational priorities. Integrated solutions provide structure, clarity and control as requirements change over time.

Strengthen Protection Through Intelligent Technology

Advanced technology strengthens security systems by improving detection, reducing false alarms and enabling controlled response. Integrated AI and security cameras provide clearer insight, faster escalation and confident decision-making across live environments.

  • AI Enabled CCTV and Video Analytics
    Detect & Deter

    AI Enabled CCTV and Video Analytics

    Identify threats earlier and respond with confidence. AI enabled security cameras use video analytics to detect unusual behaviour and flag anomalies in real time, supporting security services and security guards with clear situational awareness.

  • Radar and Sensor Based Perimeter Detection
    Detect & Deter

    Radar and Sensor Based Perimeter Detection

    Prevent unauthorised access before incidents escalate. Radar and sensor based detection integrates with wider security systems, enabling timely verification and response even in low visibility conditions.

  • Access Control Systems
    Controlled Access

    Access Control Systems

    Maintain control of access without disrupting operations. Access control integrates with security systems and security cameras to support secure movement, audit trails and consistent oversight.

  • Lockdown and Zoning Capability
    Controlled Access

    Lockdown and Zoning Capability

    Limit risk quickly by isolating affected areas. Lockdown and zoning capability works alongside security systems to support controlled response during incidents.

  • Vehicle Access Management and ANPR
    Controlled Access

    Vehicle Access Management and ANPR

    Control vehicle movement and reduce site-related risk. ANPR-enabled vehicle access management integrates with security systems and security cameras, strengthening retail environments and high-footfall sites.

  • Intruder Alarm Systems
    Alert & Protect

    Intruder Alarm Systems

    Detect unauthorised access and trigger a controlled response. Intruder alarm systems operate as part of integrated security systems, enabling monitored detection and consistent escalation.

  • Lone Worker Protection Systems
    Alert & Protect

    Lone Worker Protection Systems

    Protect colleagues working independently or in higher-risk roles. Lone worker protection systems connect into wider security systems, supporting welfare monitoring and rapid escalation.

  • Drone-Enabled Monitoring
    Extend Visibility

    Drone-Enabled Monitoring

    Extend visibility across large or complex environments. Drone-enabled monitoring complements fixed security cameras, providing aerial oversight where infrastructure is limited.

  • Mobile Surveillance Units
    Extend Visibility

    Mobile Surveillance Units

    Deploy monitored security coverage as risks change. Mobile surveillance units provide rapid deployment of temporary security systems and security cameras where requirements evolve.

  • Integrated Monitoring and Escalation
    Integrated Control

    Integrated Monitoring and Escalation

    Ensure incidents are handled consistently and proportionately. Integrated monitoring consolidates security systems, alerts and intelligence into a single operational view.

  • AI Enabled Data Analysis and Trend Identification
    Integrated Control

    AI Enabled Data Analysis and Trend Identification

    Move from reactive response to proactive risk management. AI driven analysis processes data from security systems and security cameras to identify patterns and emerging risks.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Security systems are integrated combinations of technology, monitoring and operational oversight designed to manage risk across live and complex environments. Rather than acting as standalone tools, systems bring together detection, access control, monitoring and intelligence to provide visibility, control and informed response across an estate.

  • OCS delivers fully integrated security systems designed around specific risk profiles rather than fixed product packages. Systems combine CCTV systems, access control systems, intruder alarms, perimeter detection, ANPR and environmental sensors into a single operational platform. Each solution reflects site use, occupancy and risk exposure, ensuring technologies work together as one coordinated system.

  • Security systems are built on a connected suite of proven technologies, including AI enabled CCTV systems, access control systems, intruder and perimeter alarm systems, ANPR, drone enabled monitoring, environmental sensors and lone worker protection systems. These technologies are integrated into a single monitoring and analytics environment to provide real time visibility and reduce false alarms.

  • Yes. Security systems are designed to scale across single locations, multi site portfolios and national estates. Integrated platforms allow data, alerts and intelligence to be managed centrally, providing consistent visibility, escalation and response regardless of location, size or operational complexity.

  • Security systems integrate CCTV monitoring, alarm monitoring, access control data and sensor alerts directly into national monitoring and response workflows. Events are verified, prioritised and escalated through defined protocols supported by real time intelligence, enabling faster response and consistent incident management.

  • Security systems support safer working by improving early detection and situational awareness before response. Technologies such as lone worker protection systems, mobile surveillance units, environmental sensors and AI enabled CCTV provide clearer information and earlier warning of risk, reducing the need for high risk intervention.

  • Security systems are designed to evolve as operational priorities, occupancy patterns and risk profiles change. Modular, scalable architectures allow new technologies, zones or capabilities to be added without disruption, ensuring systems remain effective and aligned to future requirements.

  • Security systems are designed to support human judgement rather than automate decisions without context. AI enabled analytics surface patterns and potential risk, while experienced specialists apply oversight, governance and operational understanding to ensure response remains ethical, proportionate and compliant with legal and regulatory requirements.
