Securens In Action
COVER STORYIndia Warehousing - Industry, Challenges & Solutions
With its award winning
range of fully integrated
eSurveillance solutions,
Securens can help you
transform your security
infrastructure
The Indian Warehousing and Logistics industry has undergone a transformative journey thanks to the e-commerce boom and the need for efficient as well as state-of-the-art supply chain systems, and the sectors driving this growth are FMCG, manufacturing and e-commerce firms.
Two significant changes, one that of GST and second that of granting the logistics sector ‘infrastructure’ status, are expected to have significant impact on how the sector continues to grow.
With the government’s push to the industry and the demand for quality spaces, supply chain efficiencies and application of disruptive innovation, a change in status-quo of the sector is forthcoming. Software for improved fleet management, tracking, inventory, storage, etc. will only lead to the logistics industry becoming a significant contributor to India’s GDP in the future.
The growth momentum of the industry is at an all-t ime high, with leasing in modern warehousing increasing from an average of 7.4 million sq. ft. in 2012-14; to 13.7 million sq. ft. during 2015-17. With GST simplifying interstate taxation and entry of international players has resulted in a structural change in the Indian warehousing sector*.
Challenges faced w.r.t. Surveillance
Warehouses are often targets to illegal activities like pilferage, theft and arson. Since warehouses are home to a variety and huge volume of goods, shrinkages are inevitable. With the continuous movement of ins and outs, loading and unloading, and storage of high-value goods, it is a monumental task to keep miscreant activities at bay.
While CCTV cameras and video surveillance are a boon to minimize these illegal activities, they can become redundant when: • The cameras are non-functional or have been tampered with • There are blind spots

• Poor illumination• You don’t know how to use the video surveillance data
Recommended Solutions
Whether you are a manufacturer, an e-commerce company or a logistics provider, warehouses are your business’ lifeline. They store equipment and stock worth millions and protecting them is your biggest concern. With its award winning range of fully integrated eSurveillance solutions, Securens can help you transform your security infrastructure by substantially increasing security, improved adherence to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and increased efficiency at considerably reduced costs.
ACTIPERIMETER
ACTIPERIMETER monitors and secures every nook and corner of your warehouse’ perimeter or surroundings using video analytics against intrusion at night with video-verification, flood-lights and 2-way audio.
How does ACTIPERIMETER function?
Ÿ It secures the entire boundary of your warehouse with a 'Region of Interest' that is drawn all around the boundary, called Digital Virtual Boundary.
Ÿ If anyone sets foot in this Digital Virtual Boundary, an alert is sent to Securens Central Monitoring Station (CMS)
Ÿ On receiving this alert, the monitoring executives perform a video-verification.
Ÿ In case of a potential threat, flood-lights are switched on and a loud siren is activated.
Ÿ If the intruder does not make his exit, a 2-way audio is deployed commanding him to leave the premises immediately.
Ÿ The nearest police station is also informed, if needed or a Quick Response Team (QRT) is initiated.

ACTIAUDITTruck loading and unloading is a daily activity in warehouses. Hence Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are created to achieve efficiency, quality output and uniformity of performance. Securens’ ACTIAUDIT is a complete SOP Audit that keeps check on loading and unloading process, detects any deviance or malpractices and reports incidents (with video clips), thus empowering you to take corrective actions and substantially improve the efficiency of your business processes.
How does ACTIAUDIT function?
Ÿ The loading and unloading operations at your warehouse are covered by cameras which are connected to the Securens Command Centre.
Ÿ An entire day’s video of your warehouse is scrutinised to check the adherence to SOPs. This process can be conducted 2 times per dock (DC) or more, per month.
Ÿ The results with video evidence of non-compliance are sent to your mobile dashboard.
ConclusionThe warehousing industry in India is in a growth trajectory that bodes well for not only the industry but for everyone who uses these services. As the warehousing systems and processes become more sophisticated, the need to keep them free from all forms of illegal activities will become more challenging. It will thus be vital to have an advanced eSurveillance system and highly capable Managed Video Surveillance-as-a-Service (MVSaaS) provider that can scale up operations as and when the requirement arises.

COVER STORYWhy gold loan companies need to invest in surveillance?Gold loans hold a special place in the Indian financial service provider’s portfolio because it is one of the oldest forms of lending and offers liquidity to both the borrower and the lender. The fact that its value has only appreciated over the years means it comes with a sense of financial security and social status.
According to a KPMG report, India is one of the largest consumers of gold with stocks up to 23,000 tonnes in 2016. It is estimated that by 2020, the average demand could reach up to 950 tonnes with annual growth rate clocked at 35%.
And though gold has been a part of the country for centuries, it is only in the recent past that people have started to use it to gain access to multiple schemes, credit, lower interest rates and less paperwork to procure one.
The gold loan industry is in its growth trajectory and key players have been leveraging technology like online loans, automated processes, branding and targeted marketing for better reach.
Challenges faced w.r.t. SurveillanceGold is constantly on the move. It is a rich and diverse market – being mined and shipped across continents and sold to a variety of users – banks, financial institutions, retail investors, jewellers, consumers, etc.
Value of organised Gold Loan Market in India
As a result of the movement, and its high value and liquidity, gold loan and microfinance companies are prime targets to robberies and other crimes. Investment in surveillance systems like CCTV cameras and man-guarding are widely followed; however, oftentimes CCTVs are mere props as their functioning is ignored. Guards can be a source of liability because of human error, lack of training and proving soft targets to a determined thief.
Recommended SolutionsAt Securens, we protect what matters to you the most. Our 360⁰ tailor-made surveillance solutions for critical areas assist gold loan and microfinance companies and jewellery stores to keep any untoward incidents at bay, in all branches across India.

CASE STUDY India Infoline Limited
Digital Revolution: IIFLIndia Infoline Holdings Ltd (IIFL) is a diversi�ed
�nancial services group offering �nancing, asset
and wealth management, �nancial advisory and
broking, �nancial products distribution, investment
banking, institutional equities, project �nancing and
advisory services through its various subsidiaries.
NBFCs & Gold Loan Firms such as IIFL constitute
an important segment of the �nancial system in
India. NBFCs enhance the role of the banking
sector in meeting the increasing �nancial needs of
the corporate sector, delivering credit to the
unorganized sector and to small local borrowers
and end consumers.
It is a known fact that NBFCs have orchestrated a
great success story. Research indicated that their
contr ibut ion to the economy has grown
substantially from 8.4% in 2006 to more than 14%
in March 2015. With growth comes operational
challenges and partnering with the expert becomes
a norm in the industry.
The Challenge
Pre-installation of Securens’s eSurveillance
solut ions, the process and system were
decentralised. IIFL had CCTV cameras and DVRs
but without any control. Is the video footage
storage happening or not was one of the concerns.
Only when the auditor went to the branch, did we
come to know that a particular DVR is not working
or the CCTV recording is not happening.
If any incident happens (not talking about the
bigger incidents but even the smallest incident)
inside the branch, Say for example if there is an
incident of customer unruly behaviour, IIFL will not
know until they audit the DVR.
Not knowing what is happening at the branch level,
the decentralised surveillance operations was a big
motive to choose an automated system.
The Solution
There were intensive engagements between both
teams to design the best solution for the branches.
IIFL started with portfolio products and with time
adopted newer solutions to easy decentralization.
Recce of the branches at different locations and
grasping of local challenges were critical to build a
robust solution.
ACTIDETER includes monitoring service provided with
a combination of Video Veri�cation and 2-way audio
communication and attempts deterrence of crime
before it occurs. ACTIDETER is an outsourced model,
hence no capital expenditure is required. It is made
available at a �xed monthly service fee.
OTP Solution
Ensures that the vault operations is done by an
authorised personnel and the vault is protected.
This solution forti�es the vault and prevents
unauthorized access. Currently, exploring new
solutions for strengthening safety of vault branches
and also geographic speci�c customizations.
The Impact & Advantage
Ÿ Optimization of cost
Ÿ Optimum utilization of the surveillance equipment
Ÿ Centralization of the surveillance process
Ÿ Increased discipline in employees’ working hours
Ÿ Audit process simpli�ed & quicker results
Ÿ People and rush hour management at the branches made easy
Ÿ Robust vault surveillance solution
Ÿ Adoption of advanced levels of surveillance
ACTIDETERPreventing Crime Before it happens!
S Venu, Chief Administrative Officer“We wanted to work with the expert from the industry and so collaborated with the best. The journey has been a learning one and the solution is customized to IIFL's specific needs. Today, we have a robust product which is ideal for vault premises and high risk zones.
The collaborative approach to solution developing ensured our operational challenges are resolved. Centralized monitoring automated our audit and surveillance process.”

Securing a brick and mortar store is a tough business today. There are many challenges that the store owners face in terms of security of their premises, mainly theft at night and during non-working hours. To curb this, owners hire guards which are inefficient and high in cost or resort to installing CCTVs which are only capable of recording a crime, not deterring it. And in the case of large retail stores, since the area that needs to be monitored is huge, the store in-charge can easily miss crucial details.
