How could an intruder avoid being assessed in a system? How could this be minimized, and how much more will it cost?
Garcia (2008) explains the use of CCTV systems uses two type of program there is the primary assessment which uses fixed cameras to provide supplementary information and the uses of secondary assessment or surveillance pan-tilt-zoom (PAZ) PTZ cameras. The uses of PLZ camera provide flexibility to gather more information. There is some drawback in the uses of PLZ camera. First, night lighting prevents useful recording of activity. Second, the camera may not always aim in the right direction, and this creates a blind spot of any intruder and affords them the ability to hide and avoid detection.

To minimized any intruder attempting to gain unauthorized access the use fixed-focal- length assessments camera should be placed in the particular area to provide maximum coverage.The changing of patrol pattern to cover vulnerability area that PAZ cameras are not covering. Be sure of one thing to update any old CCTV systems or add additional cameras and hardware will cost any company more money. But in the end cost factor of upgrading the security systems is out weight by the reducing the losses of goods and services.

Response from Shannon
Garcia defines in her text, assessment as referring to ?immediate image capture of a sensor detection zone at the time of an intrusion alarm? (Garcia 128). There are several factors in which an intruder can use to his or her benefit in order to avoid being assessed in a system. Factors that could lead to an intruder not being assessed are, ?through positional errors in camera placement, mismatches in expected and actual resolution, overt or covert tampering, environmental conditions, and overall system response time? (Garcia 135). In order to minimize an intruder not being assessed by a security system, there are many steps in which a company would have to take, and depending on the type of equipment they utilize it could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The first step in minimizing the lack of assessment is to ensure that you camera plan does not leave blank patches of area in which there is no surveillance. It is important that fields of views cross, so that everything is captured. Additionally, ensuring that your company purchased the correct camera, with the proper resolution is key to ensuring that they are functioning to their fullest potential. In a way to combat against the natural elements, I would recommend as a PPS designer (especially for high asset clients) that they have multiple cameras with multiple detection systems. I would recommend that not only video surveillance be installed, but thermal detection as well for when the environmental factors block or alter the view of the regular camera. Also, in order to prevent video feed from being tampered with, PPS designers (Garcia 136) recommend that surveillance be placed on the video feed as well. All of these items added together, in addition to the man hours spent ensuring they are properly working are extremely costly, and not recommended for small businesses, as it would most likely bankrupt their businesses. These protective measures are recommended for large corporations, which can properly allocate and spend funding on security.
