Protect Your People, Property & Business.
Build a physical security system around how your business actually operates — from cameras and access control to alarms, visitor management, vehicle security, analytics and multi-location visibility.
One Security Strategy. Multiple Layers Of Protection.
Physical security is more than installing cameras. DriveTech helps you evaluate the complete environment — people, doors, cameras, vehicles, visitors, alarms, networks, locations and operational requirements.
Video Surveillance
Network cameras, recording, VMS, remote viewing, video search and event-based monitoring.
Access Control
Door controllers, readers, credentials, mobile access, schedules, permissions and access history.
Intrusion Detection
Alarm systems, sensors, zones, alerts, monitoring and response workflows.
Visitor Management
Visitor registration, credentials, entry workflows and visibility across reception and restricted areas.
Vehicle Security
LPR/ALPR, gates, parking monitoring, vehicle identification and controlled entry.
Security Analytics
Person, vehicle, intrusion, loitering, occupancy and event-based video intelligence.
Your Security Problem Usually Isn't Just A Camera Problem.
Security gaps often come from disconnected systems, poor visibility, weak access processes, outdated hardware or a lack of centralized management.
Tell Us What Is Going Wrong. We Map The Technology Around It.
Instead of starting with a product, DriveTech starts with the operational problem and works backward toward the required security architecture.
Blind Spots → Better Camera Coverage
Unauthorized Entry → Access Control
Too Many Alerts → Security Analytics
Multiple Sites → Centralized Management
Access Event → Video Verification
Parking Risk → LPR / ALPR

Physical Security Is Connected To Your IT Network.
Cameras, access controllers, NVRs, switches and cloud platforms can all become part of the technology environment. Security design should consider both physical and cyber controls.
Physical Security Controls
Protect the physical environment and control access to people, buildings, equipment and sensitive areas.
Cybersecurity For Security Devices
Security infrastructure should also be protected against unauthorized digital access and poorly controlled network exposure.

Physical Security Questions Businesses Ask.
What is a business physical security system?
A business physical security system can combine video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, visitor management, alarms, intercoms, vehicle security, analytics and related infrastructure.
What is the difference between CCTV and IP video surveillance?
Traditional CCTV commonly refers to camera systems using dedicated video transmission and recording infrastructure, while modern IP surveillance uses network-connected cameras and network infrastructure. The right architecture depends on the site and requirements.
Can cameras and access control work together?
Yes. Supported platforms can connect access events with video so an organization can use door events and corresponding video together during security investigations.
What is a VMS?
A Video Management System, or VMS, is software used to manage cameras, video streams, recordings, events, users and investigations.
What is LPR or ALPR?
License Plate Recognition (LPR) or Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) technology can identify license plates and associate them with configured security or vehicle events where supported.
Can I monitor multiple business locations?
Many modern security platforms support centralized management and remote visibility across multiple locations. Architecture depends on the selected platform and site requirements.
Should my security system be cloud or on-premise?
There is no universal architecture for every business. Cloud, on-premise and hybrid approaches each have different operational, connectivity, retention, security and management considerations.
How much does a commercial security camera system cost?
Cost depends on camera quantity, camera type, site size, cabling, storage, recording retention, installation, analytics, software, networking and ongoing services. A site-specific quote is generally more meaningful than a generic price.
Can I reuse my existing cameras?
Sometimes. Compatibility depends on the existing camera hardware, protocols, VMS, recording environment, network architecture and security requirements.
Can physical security systems be accessed remotely?
Many current systems support authorized remote access through web interfaces or mobile applications. Remote access should be designed with appropriate account and network security controls.
Does DriveTech provide a free security comparison?
DriveTech offers an initial no-obligation discussion to understand the security requirement and help compare applicable technology and service options.
Do I need to know which security company I want before calling?
No. You can start with the business problem, property type, number of locations and the outcomes you need. The technology and provider comparison can come afterward.
