ESL Federal Credit Union benefits from the security surveillance solution provided by March Networks

March Networks, a global provider of intelligent IP video solutions, announced that Rochester, NY-based ESL Federal Credit Union has standardised on the company's Financial Solution to secure its corporate headquarters, retail banking branches and standalone ATMs. The solution includes March Networks VideoSphere VMS software, 4000 C Series hybrid recorders and MegaPX 720p and PTZ IP cameras deployed by NAVCO, a March Networks Platinum Certified Solution Provider.

ESL Federal Credit Union selected the Financial Solution based on its proven performance in more than 400 banks and credit unions worldwide. It also wanted centralised management and the flexibility to deploy advanced applications available in the March Networks portfolio, such as intelligent video analytics and Financial Transaction Investigation software for fraud detection.

"The March Networks' solution allows us to monitor and manage all sites from our communications centre, which saves us considerable time and helps us ensure the security of our members and staff," said Bob Lukasiewicz, Physical Security Manager, ESL Federal Credit Union. "In addition, it supports analytics and other applications that we can use strategically to evolve our security efforts."

The enterprise-class Financial Solution enabled ESL to outfit its new, six-story corporate headquarters with the latest IP video technology, and support a combination of existing analogue cameras and new IP cameras at its banking branches and ATMs. In addition, the solution is integrated with ESL's Guardall access control system to streamline security monitoring.

"Our Financial Solutions provide banks with centralised management and complete surveillance coverage across their organisation," said Net Payne, Chief Marketing Officer, March Networks. "They combine open-platform VMS solutions for corporate facilities with industry-leading recording systems ideal for multiple branch locations. They also improve operational efficiency and return on investment through a range of integrated applications designed specifically for banking environments."
