3558 Digital Barriers’ SafeZone-edge intrusion detection solution has received the Intruder Alarm or Exterior Deterrent Product of the Year at IFSEC’s Security and Fire Excellence Awards 2014.

The judging panel cited the "superior performance", "ease of use" and "market moving pricing" as key factors in the award.

Launched in April 2014, SafeZone-edge was designed to address the limitations that are typically associated with video-based intrusion detection solutions. By combining outstanding performance with exceptional usability, the app (for 2215 Axis devices), provides an automated security option.

SafeZone-edge features unique auto-calibration of multiple cameras, together with automatic mitigation of environmental effects, including adverse weather, variable illumination and wildlife.

SafeZone-edge is simpler than conventional server-based IVA and more reliable than edge-based VMD. It has been optimised for edge operation on a wide range of Axis cameras, removing the need for costly and complex centralised server infrastructure.

    As authorities strive to reduce expenditure and carbon emissions, Colin Sowman looks at some of the smart ways of managing street lighting while containing costs and maintaining safety. Street lighting can account for 40% of an authority’s energy consumption. So, faced with the need to reduce outgoings, some authorities are looking for smart ways of managing street lighting or even turning off swathes of street lights in the small hours. Back in 2008 the E-street Initiative report concluded that authorities
