Description

This customer research measures the physical security demand as perceived among facility/security managers within the financial services industry in the United States. A Web-based survey methodology was utilized. The fieldwork was conducted during July of 2012. The sample consisted of managers (n=100) responsible for physical security in financial institutions. The study covered the video surveillance (network/IP and analog cameras), access control (keypads, card readers, and biometrics), intrusion detection systems as well as integration of systems, and budget issues. Video surveillance technologies and access control systems are more widely used than intrusion detection systems.
