The 5 most common security vulnerabilities we see (and how to fix them):
1. Uncontrolled access (too many keys / shared codes)
2. Blind spots at entrances, loading areas, and parking lots
3. Poor lighting that makes cameras less effective at night
4. No audit trail (no access logs, no incident documentation)
5. Outdated or unmaintained systems (cameras offline, dead batteries, false alarms)
The good news: most of these are fixable with a few targeted upgrades—without overhauling everything.
