Monitoring & Response Center
American Security Force provides security monitoring services through a centralized Monitoring & Response Center that operates 24/7 from our headquarters in Los Angeles. This service is designed for businesses that need continuous oversight, real-time threat verification, and immediate coordination of response, whether they already have surveillance systems in place or require a complete monitoring solution.
As part of our integrated security approach, the monitoring center supports all surveillance services we deploy. It can also be contracted as a standalone service, allowing clients with existing camera systems to leverage our trained personnel for live monitoring, incident verification, and response coordination.
What Our Security Monitoring Services Deliver
We’re not just offering passive monitoring. Every alert is reviewed by our in-house-trained operators, who assess the situation and initiate the appropriate response, whether that’s dispatching the American Security Force teams, contacting emergency services, or escalating to the appropriate authority.
Real-Time Threat
Verification
Every alert is reviewed by trained personnel to confirm whether it’s a real threat, reducing false alarms and ensuring the right response every time.
Immediate Dispatch &
Coordination
When incidents are confirmed, our team coordinates a response instantly. If our guards are at your site, they will be among the first to be dispatched and directed.
Authority Notification &
Escalation
Depending on the situation, our operators contact the appropriate authorities, including 911 emergency services, local law enforcement, fire departments, or site-specific contacts such as property managers or internal security teams.
Continuous Site Awareness
With 24/7 security monitoring, your site remains actively supervised at all times, even when no personnel are physically present.
The Advantage of 24/7 Video Monitoring
Security cameras alone record incidents. A security monitoring center ensures those incidents are seen, understood, and acted on in real time.
Faster Response to Incidents
Threats are identified and addressed as they happen, reducing damage, loss, and liability.
Reduced False Alarms
Trained operators verify alerts before escalation, avoiding unnecessary dispatches and disruptions.
Coverage Beyond Guard Hours
Monitoring continues overnight, during off-hours, and across multiple sites simultaneously.
Centralized Control Across Locations
Manage multiple properties through a single monitoring hub with consistent protocols and reporting.
Integrated With Security Personnel
Guard shacks and control barriers are most effective when operated by trained security personnel managing access in real time. They create a controlled checkpoint where decisions are made, access is verified, and activity is actively monitored.
While these systems are primarily operated by on-site personnel, they can also be upgraded with more advanced technologies such as license plate recognition and monitoring systems to enhance visibility and support decision-making when needed.
