Joint development will enable Arlo's first U.S. SmartCloud™
SaaS customer to seamlessly add Arlo cameras to the Securitas
private LTE network for remote monitoring of commercial
assets
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Arlo Technologies,
Inc. (NYSE: ARLO), one of the leading internet-connected
camera brands, today announced an agreement with Securitas
Security Services USA, the
global leader in protective security services, to integrate Arlo
SmartCloud™ into the Securitas USA monitoring platform. Arlo SmartCloud, the
SaaS version of Arlo Smart that is
currently deployed as part of Arlo's award-winning security camera
solutions, will enable Securitas to bolster its protective guarding
services by adding Arlo cameras for centralized remote guarding of
its high volume of assets. Securitas' commercial clients can also
rely on Arlo SmartCloud AI-enabled security cameras including
Arlo Pro 3 or Arlo Go to efficiently
provide Remote Guarding services to sites that should have little
to no unknown traffic, with advanced push notifications that allow
users to quickly know whether people, vehicles, packages or even
animals may be trespassing.
"Arlo SmartCloud enables security partner ecosystems with the
power of the most advanced computer vision technology and a secure,
scalable and fully managed video cloud," said Tejas Shah,
Arlo's SVP product and chief information officer. "Securitas
brings extraordinary assets in terms of people, knowledge and
technology, as well as its best-in-class integrated guarding
capabilities. We are truly excited to be working with them. Through
this partnership, Securitas is able to further scale its services,
which ultimately delivers peace of mind to customers by keeping a
watchful eye on the people and places that matter most."
Securitas' Remote Guarding service uses specially-trained
officers, working at the national Securitas Operation Center in
Charlotte NC, and advanced
analytics which alert these officers to unwanted site activity.
Using a live stream through Arlo's cloud platform, the officers can
then investigate the situation and determine whether to dispatch
Securitas mobile officers or a public safety agency to the client
location. By using Arlo Pro 3
security cameras, Securitas will now be able to leverage the
response platform to initiate live streams of guards.
Securitas intends to use Arlo's SmartCloud capabilities to
deploy its new Remote Guarding Go (RGGo) service. Securitas RGGo
offers an easy to set-up, fully-contained security solution via
Securitas Remote Guarding and Mobile Guarding, which taps the
largest mobile footprint in North
America, to investigate any activity and determine the
appropriate level of response. One major RGGo application
is being driven by COVID-19, in which a high number of buildings
and assets are being left unmonitored. Securitas is using RGGo and
Arlo SmartCloud to ensure incidents are observed and acted
upon.
Using Arlo Go cameras, Securitas' RGGo service will benefit
customers across a broad spectrum of industries including
transportation, restaurants and hospitality, government, real
estate and property management, retail and finance /
banking.
"RGGo is a natural extension of our industry-leading Remote
Guarding capabilities," said Koldo
Eceiza, Corporate Vice President, Technology Solutions at
Securitas. "RGGo has an incredibly easy install, highly competitive
pricing, strong analytics and a direct connection to our Securitas
Operation Center. This packaged solution, combining technology with
our monitoring and response services, is in high demand. In just 60
days we've already had over 200 client installs – our fastest
service launch ever. Teaming with Arlo brings together our 160+
years of industry leadership with a company that is transforming
the smart device industry. This is extending our reach in select
markets."

innovative capabilities built for security, scalability and
reliability that can be easily deployed as part of advanced
subscription services for hardware companies, automotive companies,
service providers, insurance companies, home builders, smart
