VPS Detect – Risk Intelligence to Reduce Business Disruption
VPS Detect gives you real-time intelligence so you can prevent encampments, reduce damage, and keep your properties ready for sale or let.
What it does
- VPS Detect highlights where and when your buildings are most vulnerable:
- Property-specific risk identification: Uses live and historical data to pinpoint immediate threats.
Pattern and trend analysis: Tracks movement patterns, seasonal trends, and area-based risks to anticipate potential issues.
How it helps
- Smarter prioritisation: Allocate security resources where they’re needed most.
- Early intervention: Act before incidents occur, rather than reacting afterwards.
- Reduced disruption: Minimise incursions, property damage, and costly emergency call-outs.
By understanding the risks with VPS Detect, we can then recommend the right security solution to mitigate each identified threat.

Case Study:
Intelligence-Led Response To illegal Encampment.
Our customer contacted us after an unauthorised group (10 caravans and 6 vehicles) had gained access to their multimillion-pound development. They quickly took control of the site, jeopardising the pending sale and putting the broader development at considerable risk. VPS were challenged with addressing the breach, facilitating a rapid eviction and mitigating the risk of future incidents.
