High-Tech Crime Fighting Leads to Prestigious Award for Long Beach Security Firm

In the face of soaring product theft rates nationwide, businesses are seeking innovative solutions to fortify their defenses. Among the vanguard in this high-stakes battle is ECAMSECURE, a renowned provider of mobile video security and remote camera monitoring services headquartered in Long Beach, California.

"We roll out one of these trailers with artificial intelligence, lights, speakers…and we're able to detect threats…and so we detect, deter, and protect assets and this is how we do it…and the cool thing about it is, it's mobile and temporary," said Jordan Lippel, the VP of Sales for ECAMSECURE.

Bolstered by an extensive network of over 100,000 cameras spanning the nation, the real magic lies in the artificial intelligence that enables each command center agent to oversee multiple sites simultaneously through their live video surveillance system.

Yet, every site presents its unique set of challenges, and it's here where ECAMSECURE excels. One remarkable accomplishment involved tailoring a system to combat rail theft in Los Angeles, yielding a remarkable 68% reduction in theft-related calls.

This achievement paved the way for a groundbreaking collaboration with the LAPD to surveil warehouses where stolen goods were being sold, leading to the recovery of 20 million dollars’ worth of merchandise and the arrest of 22 individuals.

Det. Joe Chavez of the LAPD train division task force spoke of the tangible benefits, noting, "It makes the whole system more efficient. We weren't chasing just people running across the track, because there are people that just cross the tracks to get to home or wherever. We were able to see actual suspects climbing onto the trains. Actually busting open the containers and removing product."

This magnificent collaboration led to ECAMSECURE being awarded the prestigious OSPA (Outstanding Security Performance Awards) for Outstanding Security Partnership. Judges commented that “the ECAMSECURE and LAPD partnership is an excellent virtual boots-on-the-ground surveillance option for combating crime in remote areas.”

Lippel envisions a future of further collaborations, saying, "If we could do 90% of the work and give them the resources to look at other major threats, and we could stop some of these issues that we've been stopping, I see us duplicating that over and over again with other agencies."

In an era where criminals continually evolve their tactics, ECAMSECURE remains unwavering in their commitment to deploying cutting-edge technology and pioneering security solutions.

"The bad guy is getting more sophisticated and doesn't care if cameras talk to them or lights come on, but what they do care about is going to jail," said Lippel. "So what we're doing is giving law enforcement more resources to be able to better protect against other threats in their communities."
