Video surveillance to gain insights into store security: A Cisco case study

Delhi Duty Free Services PVT Ltd. (DDFS), shops operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and employ more than 400 retail staff.

The shops also stock more than 6000 stock-keeping units (SKUs) of liquor, tobacco, fragrance, cosmetics, and confectionery products. While planning these shops, DDFS sought a physical security and theft control solution that provided detailed reporting and the ability to see every item in the stores.

The solution had to operate without downtime and provide high scalability, so that DDFS could add IP security cameras for future expansions.
