Active Virtual Guard 10PM to 7AM:
Security measures used in the past are reactive vs. active at the moment interaction. Usually, they wait for a trigger to activate a security alarm and call the police after burglars have entered your property. It frequently leads to wrong calls, a slower police response time, and more chances for criminals to flee.
Everywhere at the same time with Motion
Security officers have traditionally monitored and guarded construction and business sites. But how do you ensure that your security guard is in the right area when something happens in another area? This is why we have the system located in different positions. Additionally, it is not humanly possible for anyone to watch a complete property, especially if it is a large property that needs more coverage due to different coverage areas. This is where we come in and can view everything immediately upon motion activation.
Double Coverage
So this is where live security cameras come in handy - its technology-based security solution provides approximately 90% more security for less than half the cost of one security guard. LA security uses live monitoring and surveillance to take a proactive approach. Using both a security guard and monitoring cameras will improve your overall security.
industry experience.
Deterrence By Audio- The Right Expectations
We adopt a preventative strategy with live monitoring and surveillance. To help deter crimes from happening, our team may keep an eye on essential areas of your property. We can deter and do it right, but we cannot shoot, hit, or physically stop any criminal trespasser from crossing onto your property. This a reminder that our job is to help deter and threaten to call the Police with hopes that the criminals will leave. We do not control the criminal's actions, but we do a great job of scaring them by threatening to call the Police. Remember that criminals want to get in and out; they do not want the hassles or dealing with the Police, let alone go to jail.
Penalties for Crimes Committed in Los Angeles
We can help provide evidence with our Live Monitoring Virtual Guards on video!
The penalties for theft in Los Angeles can vary depending on the value of the stolen property and the circumstances surrounding the crime. Generally, theft is defined as the taking of someone else's property without permission with the intent to deprive the owner of the property permanently. Penalties are subject to change
In Los Angeles, the penalties for theft are as follows:
The cost of damage to a business during a break-in can vary widely depending on the size of the company, the type of business, and the extent of the damage. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the average cost of a burglary in the United States is approximately $2,799 per offense. This includes the cost of property loss, damage to the premises, and other related expenses.
However, it is essential to note that the cost of a break-in can be much higher for certain types of businesses. For example, a break-in at a jewelry store or high-end retailer could result in the loss of valuable merchandise and a much higher cost of damage to the premises. Similarly, a break-in at a data center or other technology-focused business could result in losing valuable data and equipment, which can be difficult and expensive to replace.
In addition to the direct costs of property loss and damage, businesses may also face indirect costs such as lost productivity, lost revenue, and damage to their reputation. A break-in can result in significant disruption to business operations, which can impact the ability of the business to generate income and meet customer needs. In some cases, the damage to a business's reputation following a break-in can be even more significant than the direct financial costs.
To minimize the impact of a break-in on a business, it is essential to take preventative measures such as installing security systems, training staff on security protocols, and maintaining appropriate insurance coverage. By taking proactive steps to prevent break-ins and minimize the impact of any incidents that do occur, businesses can better protect themselves and their customers from the negative consequences of criminal activity.

Catalytic Converter Theft in Los Angeles: Help Avoid this by the following:
Catalytic converter theft has become a significant problem in many parts of the world, including the United States and in Los Angeles, CA. Catalytic converters are valuable because they contain precious metals, such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which can be sold on the black market. Thieves can steal catalytic converters in minutes using a saw or cutting torch to remove them from under vehicles. This is a complicated crime to stop by our Live Monitoring Virtual Guards since it happens literally in seconds, then they are gone!
​
Catalytic converter theft can result in several negative consequences, including:
-
Financial losses for vehicle owners - Replacing a stolen catalytic converter can cost thousands of dollars, depending on the make and model of the vehicle.
-
Disruption of vehicle operation - A stolen catalytic converter can render a vehicle inoperable until it is replaced, which can cause significant inconvenience for the vehicle owner.
-
Environmental damage - Catalytic converters are essential in reducing harmful vehicle emissions. When a catalytic converter is stolen, the vehicle can emit higher levels of pollutants, harming the environment and public health.
-
Safety risks - Catalytic converter theft can also pose safety risks, as thieves may use dangerous tools and techniques to remove the converter, and vehicles may be left with exposed exhaust systems that can pose a fire risk.
To help prevent catalytic converter theft; vehicle owners can take several measures, including:
-
Parking in well-lit and secure areas - Thieves are less likely to target vehicles parked in well-lit and protected areas.
-
Installing a catalytic converter anti-theft device - Anti-theft devices, such as cages or clamps, can make it more difficult for thieves to remove the converter.
-
Engraving the catalytic converter - Engraving the vehicle identification number (VIN) on the catalytic converter can make it easier for law enforcement to identify stolen converters and return them to their rightful owners.
-
Installing security cameras - Security cameras can deter thieves and provide evidence that can be used to identify and prosecute them.
-
Being aware of suspicious activity - Vehicle owners should be on the lookout for suspicious activity, such as individuals loitering near parked vehicles or carrying cutting tools.
Costly to Consumers in Los Angeles:
The cost of replacing a stolen catalytic converter can vary widely depending on the make and model of the vehicle, as well as the cost of the replacement part and labor fees for installation. Replacing a stolen catalytic converter can range from $1,000 to $3,000 ( sometimes up to $8000, depending on the vehicle!) . This cost can be even higher for specific cars or those requiring specialized parts or installation techniques.
In addition to the cost of replacing the stolen catalytic converter, vehicle owners may also face additional expenses related to damage caused by the theft, such as damage to the vehicle's exhaust system or other components.
The cost of a stolen catalytic converter can be a significant financial burden for many consumers, mainly if they are not covered by insurance or if the replacement cost is within their deductible. Some insurance companies may also have limitations on the coverage they provide for catalytic converter theft, which can further increase the financial impact on consumers.
To mitigate the impact of catalytic converter theft, vehicle owners can take preventative measures, such as installing a catalytic converter anti-theft device, parking in well-lit and secure areas, and being aware of suspicious activity in their area.
