Proactive Video Monitoring That Helps Stop Problems Before They Escalate
Traditional cameras show you what happened after the fact. Proactive Video Monitoring helps you respond while suspicious activity is still unfolding.
Solid Security designs and installs commercial video systems that connect with Netwatch’s Proactive Video Monitoring service, combining intelligent detection, trained intervention specialists, live audio warnings, policy-based response, and incident reporting to help deter unauthorized activity before it becomes a costly loss.
Partnering with Solid Security provides your business with high-quality yet cost-effective solutions built on expertise and excellence in every interaction.
Our Tailored Video Monitoring Process
Step 1: Site Assessment and Security Design
Solid Security starts by learning how your property operates. We assess access points, perimeter vulnerabilities, lighting conditions, camera coverage, network connectivity, after-hours activity, and areas most likely to attract unwanted behavior.
This helps us design a PVM-ready solution tailored to your actual risk profile, rather than a generic camera layout. Depending on your site, that may include fixed cameras, speaker placement for live audio warnings, video analytics, network configuration, signage, and integration with other security systems.
Step 2: Installation and Netwatch Integration
Once the design is approved, Solid Security installs and configures the equipment needed to support proactive monitoring. Our team focuses on camera placement, field of view, system reliability, connectivity, audio coverage, and the practical details that determine whether the system can support real intervention.
We connect the system with Netwatch’s Proactive Video Monitoring platform so trained intervention specialists can review alerts. Netwatch’s PVM model is built around threat detection, live video verification, intervention, escalation, and reporting.
Step 3: Monitor, Intervene, and Report
When the system detects activity in a protected area, the alert is reviewed by a monitoring specialist. The specialist assesses the live video feed, verifies whether the activity appears to be a threat, and responds according to your site-specific protocol.
That response may include a live audio warning, contact with designated keyholders, or, when appropriate, escalation to law enforcement. After the incident, reporting helps document the event and the action taken.
This is the core difference between simply having cameras and having a proactive security program.

Proactive Video Monitoring, or PVM, is a security service that uses intelligent video detection, live video review, trained intervention specialists, live audio warnings, and response protocols to help deter unauthorized activity. Instead of only recording what happened, PVM is designed to identify and respond to suspicious activity as it unfolds.
Yes, it can be. PVM is not only for large enterprises. It can be a practical solution for small and mid-sized businesses that need better after-hours protection, outdoor asset security, or a stronger deterrent against trespassing, theft, and vandalism.
In some cases, yes. Whether existing cameras can be used depends on camera quality, placement, connectivity, field of view, compatibility, audio needs, and monitoring requirements. Solid Security can assess your current system and recommend whether it can support PVM or needs upgrades.
PVM does not replace every use case for on-site guards, but it can reduce the need for constant physical patrols in some environments. It can also support guards by adding intelligent detection, live monitoring, remote intervention, and documentation.
PVM is especially useful for businesses with outdoor assets, after-hours exposure, multi-site operations, limited on-site staffing, or recurring nuisance activity. Common applications include vehicle and equipment dealerships, restaurants, property management, senior living communities, construction sites, parking areas, remote yards, and commercial facilities.
After an intervention or verified event, an incident report can document the activity, timing, response, and actions taken. This reporting helps business owners and managers understand recurring issues, review site vulnerabilities, and make better security decisions.
Yes, PVM can help reduce nuisance alarms by using intelligent detection and human verification before escalation. Rather than treating every motion event as an emergency, trained specialists assess the live video feed and respond based on what is actually happening.
A live voice-down is a real-time audio warning issued by a monitoring specialist via on-site speakers. Instead of playing a generic prerecorded message, the specialist can speak directly to the person on the property, making it clear that the activity has been seen and that the site is being actively monitored.
Many PVM solutions use AI-enabled analytics or intelligent detection to identify activity that may require review. However, the strongest PVM programs combine technology with trained human intervention. Analytics help detect activity, while intervention specialists verify what is happening and respond appropriately.
Traditional video surveillance is often used after an incident to review footage. PVM is designed for active response. When activity is detected, a monitoring specialist can verify the event via live video, issue a live audio warning, contact designated personnel, or escalate per your site’s response plan.
