Securing Wiri: How CrimeWatch Adds an Extra Layer to Local Business Protection

The Wiri Business Association has long prioritised the safety of our business community. With dedicated Global Security patrols operating throughout the night and a robust CCTV network in place, we’re committed to creating a secure environment for businesses to thrive. By partnering with CrimeWatch, we take our security to the next level.

CrimeWatch enhances our existing security infrastructure by providing real-time monitoring using state-of-the-art AI technology, including Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR). This smart layer of protection not only helps to deter crime but actively assists in identifying suspicious vehicles and coordinating swift responses when needed.

How It Works

ANPR cameras scan and identify number plates of all vehicles entering or leaving the Wiri area. The system instantly compares this data against a database of vehicles of interest. If a match is found, an alert is immediately sent to CrimeWatch operators, who then verify the threat and notify the appropriate patrol team or authorities.

This means that even when you’re not on site – whether it’s after-hours or during the weekend, there’s an intelligent system watching over your business, backed by trained professionals ready to act.

More Than Just Monitoring

The integration of CrimeWatch into Wiri’s security strategy is more than just surveillance. It’s a proactive crime prevention tool.

“What makes our system different is its ability to take action. It’s not just about watching – it’s about recognising threats before they become incidents. Our AI and ANPR systems give communities like Wiri the tools to stay one step ahead” says Alan, General Manager at CrimeWatch.

Why It Matters Now

As we head into the busy Christmas and New Year period, a time when security risks traditionally spike, now is the perfect time to strengthen your business’s protection.

“Traditional patrols are great for response, but they often arrive long after trouble starts. CrimeWatch’s AI tools step in early, catching issues before they grow, and work alongside your current setup for an affordable boost”
