Netwatch is an international surveillance co. unlike any other with intervention specialists located in communications hubs

Netwatch is an international surveillance company unlike any other on the market today, specializing in commercial security. Netwatch's groundbreaking security system protects building perimeters, preventing unwanted intruders from crossing onto the property. Highly-trained intervention specialists located in Netwatch's communications hub watch in real-time any interference on a client's site and, after determining the threat level (i.e. the difference between a swinging branch and a burglar), the Intervention Specialists have the ability speak directly to the criminals; clearing them from the site before any damage is done. This unique process saves businesses thousands of dollars in losses every year. "Protecting your business means much more than the building - it's employees and livelihoods - and intrusions can lead to headaches like the loss of proprietary information and increased insurance premiums," said David Walsh, Netwatch CEO. "By protecting building perimeters with video processing software, visual verification and audio warnings, commercial properties are less tempting to would-be thieves." Established in Ireland in 2003, Netwatch was the first company worldwide to combine specialist video processing technologies with satellite communications. In February 2012, Netwatch opened its U.S. headquarters in Boston. Netwatch monitors more than 27,000 cameras across four continents with clients across Europe, South Africa, the Middle East and the USA. Since its inception, Netwatch has prevented more than 40,000 crimes.
