CCTV & Command Centre Solutions
Edge-AI surveillance, video management and a unified command console — designed for Delhi NCR, Mumbai and pan-India estates.
Common Challenges
Cameras without analytics
Hundreds of streams, no AI classification, no operator alerting — recording for forensics only.
Fragmented VMS estates
Multiple recorders, multiple UIs, no portfolio-wide search across sites.
Poor low-light & licence-plate capture
Wrong optics, wrong placement, wrong bitrate — footage that fails when it's needed.
Storage and retention sprawl
Unpredictable storage costs and unclear legal retention compliance.
No command centre discipline
Operators reactive instead of running event-driven SOPs.
Cyber-vulnerable IP cameras
Default passwords, exposed ports, unsigned firmware — a soft underbelly.
How Arif Khan Approaches It
Architect the CCTV estate as a command system: edge-AI cameras (Axis, Hanwha, Bosch, Dahua, Hikvision) on an open VMS (Milestone, Genetec, NX Witness), unified search, hardened network and an operator console designed for verified response — installed across luxury residences, corporate campuses and industrial sites in Delhi NCR, Noida, Gurugram, Mumbai and Bengaluru.
Understand Environment
Deep discovery: site, threat model, operational reality, owner intent.
Design Architecture
Vendor-neutral systems architecture aligned to outcomes — not catalogues.
Integrate Systems
Engineer the program as one fabric, not a stack of independent products.
Validate Performance
Measure, calibrate, prove. Nothing is signed off until it performs.
Optimize Experience
Refine the human and operator experience over the long lifecycle.
Technology Components
Edge-AI Cameras
4K, low-light and thermal optics from Axis, Hanwha, Bosch, Dahua, Hikvision.
Video Management System
Open VMS — Milestone XProtect, Genetec Security Center, NX Witness.
Video Analytics
Intrusion, loitering, ANPR, people-counting and behavioural anomaly.
Command & Control Console
One pane of glass for live, search, response and audit.
Storage & Retention
Tiered storage with legal-retention policy baked in.
Network & Cyber Hardening
Segmented VLANs, signed firmware, role-based access, audit logging.
Where It Gets Applied
Common Mistakes
Specifying cameras before designing the operator workflow
Mixing closed VMS with proprietary cameras
Skipping a proper site survey for optics and lux levels
No cyber-hardening or password governance plan
Treating storage as an afterthought instead of a policy
Frequently Asked Questions
Which CCTV brands do you specify?+
Vendor-neutral — Axis, Hanwha, Bosch, Dahua, Hikvision, Pelco and Indian OEMs selected against the brief, lighting and retention requirements.
Which VMS platforms do you work with?+
Open VMS only — Milestone XProtect, Genetec Security Center, NX Witness and Bosch BVMS.
Do you provide a manned command centre?+
Yes — optional 24×7 monitoring with SLA-bound response coordination, operating from client SOCs or partner facilities.
Can existing cameras be reused?+
Wherever they're ONVIF-compliant and meet image-quality targets. Typical retrofits reuse 40–70% of the existing estate.
Do you handle ANPR and licence plate capture?+
Yes — purpose-built ANPR cameras with VMS integration for gate, parking and perimeter use cases.
What kind of CCTV projects have you delivered across Delhi NCR?+
Luxury residences and farmhouses, corporate headquarters, hospitality flagships and industrial estates across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Lucknow, Bengaluru and North India. Specific client and site references are shared selectively and confidentially during scoping.
How is storage and retention costed?+
Tiered storage — hot, warm, cold — sized to the legal-retention policy (typically 30–90 days at full resolution) with predictable annual cost.
How is the system cyber-hardened?+
Network segmentation, default-password elimination, signed firmware, RBAC, audit logging and quarterly vulnerability review.
Is the system compliant with Indian regulations?+
Yes — CEA, DoT, MHA and sector-specific (CISF, BCAS) guidelines referenced at architecture stage.
