  • SPECIAL FEATURE

    This is a brief summary of just some of the things that have happened in your neighbourhood (and ours) over the lastmonth. Remember, you can call us In Case Of Anything. Here’s the proof.

    Armed Response 086 162 7732

    Caught. On Camera. Here you are, on a random afternoon, minding your own business, driving home from work… maybe you’re thinking about what’s going to happen on Masterchef, or the quickest thing you can make for dinner without having to stop at the shop first, the meeting that Did. Not. End. or the earliest you could possibly fall into bed. It doesn’t matter, the point is, you don’t know this but ‘click’… your picture has just been taken. Scratch that, your number plate has just been captured.

    Now, don’t worry, this isn’t some sort of random creep attack that should make you nervous about your privacy, this is actually a really clever new crime fighting technique that has been taking over South Africa (and the world), and was pioneered by Marshall Security (backed by SNIPR™’s ANPR technology) in KwaZulu-Natal from 2017.

    Brace yourself, here’s the twist, that same camera just took a picture of the car behind you… and inside that vehicle there is some shady chap that is thinking about a house down the road from you, or maybe even your house… and how best to rob it. He’s the guy that the people behind the scenes actually want… and because of this new technology, they are going to get him too.

    Marshall Security and SNIPR™ errected the first sets of ANPR cameras in Umhlanga and the results were immediately exciting. Just during the testing phase, 9 arrests where made… and that number has only swelled since then to hit 37 and counting.

    This is how it works; as a vehicle drives past one of Marshall Security’s SNIPR™ powered cameras, an image is captured and sent directly to their Emergency Dispatch Centre. There that image is analysed andthe number plate automatically run against several nat-ional law enforcement databases, flagging suspicious vehicles. Number plates that match earn an immediate reaction - an armed unit is dispatched to the last known location of the car (and the SAPS are notified). The truly remarkable part is the length of time this whole process takes. Seconds.

    According to Grant Hancock, director at SNIPR™, the technology is aiding law enforcement services and the communities they serve to gain the upper hand on criminals. He adds, “this is an advancement that can be measured in a real and quantifiable way, when you consider the increasing arrest rate and the number of vehicles that are being stopped.”

    So there you are… you’ve finally figured out what you’re having for dinner. Leftovers, obviously… and suddenly there are flashing lights, sirens, and the swift arrest of the guy behind you. Stopped in his tracks, all thanks to some incredible technology and the team that runs with it on the ground. The robot turns green. You head home. Safe as houses.

  • Hey Good Looking!(We’re talking about our ANPR cameras;))

    Our state-of-the-art ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras, powerfully backed by SNIPR™ are in point of fact quite ‘good looking’, because, well, that’s exactly what they do. Giving us the opportunity to stop criminals before they do bad things.

    Here’s how:1. Marshall Security (the most proactive* security company in northern Durban) and SNIPR™ (with the most effective ANPR technology system in KZN) have combined forces to be on the ‘look out’ for bad guys.

    2. Cameras are erected in area/community hotspots and the number plate of every vehicle that passes it is captured and relayed to the Marshall Security Emergency Contact Centre, in real time.

    3. At the Emergency Contact Centre, the registration numbers are live linked and automatically checked against several of the national law enforcement databases. Suspicious vehicles are immediately flagged.

    4. Armed Response vehicles are immediately dispatched to the last known location of the suspicious vehicle in an effort to proactively prevent crime in the area.

    5. Marshall Security has 15 Armed Reaction vehicles on patrol, with an additional 6 Special Operations Team vehicles on call. This ensures a powerful, technologically advanced,multi-faceted network is in play to shorten reaction times and keep our communities safe.

    6. The entire process, from image capture to team dispatch takes seconds and gets proactive results.

    “Criminals are always changing their approach, so we do as well. One such example is combining ‘forces’ with SNIPR™, introduc-ing their ANPR technology into our portfolio. Their powerful tech, coupled with our effective and efficient network on the ground has offered incredible results. We believe that by building strong partner-ships, like the ones we have with SNIPR™ and with local police sta-tions that we can better serve our communities. The arrest figures speak for themselves.”

    - Tyron Powell, Marshall Security

We believe bringing technology and operational resources together to present a united front, ensures we are better able to change the way we fight crime in our cities, neighbourhoods and homes.”

  • NEWSFEEDDATE: 15 JANUARY 2019SUBURB: UMHLANGA

    Whilst conducting a general foot patrol along the beach, one of our guards spotted a green net just floating in the ocean in the area just before Peace Cottage. He tried to remove it on his own, but however the sea was heavy and the force of the wave too powerful. Fortunately, an Umhlanga lifeguard who had just arrived for his shift saw what our guard was trying to do and joined in the effort. Their combined work resulted in the removal of the net. Our thanks to our guard for his initiative and going above and beyond the call of duty to keep our community safe in every way (for fish as well ;)) and our thanks to the lifeguard, Kabuto, who offered his assistance as well.
