Parking lot facilities are particularly vulnerable to criminal activities for a range of reasons. They contain high-value items, including vehicles and their contents, which attract thieves. The layout of parking lots and garages, with their remote corners, natural hiding spots, and sometimes weak parking lot security measures, provides a low-risk, high-reward opportunity for criminals.

Criminal activity can run the gamut from opportunistic thefts, where valuables left in plain sight or unlocked cars are stolen, to more organized crimes like carjackings and vandalism. The high volume of foot and vehicle traffic also offers thieves the chance to strike without immediate detection​.

Smart Sight System’s proactive parking lot security monitoring solutions provide the ability to actively watch site activities in real time and use voice-down communication to inform trespassers or undesirables they have been spotted, and authorities are on the way.
