Our system pays for itself by preventing security incidents that directly cause operational downtime. By stopping the theft of critical tools, vandalism of essential machinery, and disruptive break-ins, we save your business from the immense costs of lost revenue, idle staff wages, and emergency repairs—costs that often far exceed the annual price of our service.
When a business experiences a security breach, the most significant financial damage often isn't the value of what was stolen. It's the cascading cost of the operational downtime that follows. A vandalized machine, a shattered storefront, or stolen equipment can bring your entire operation to a grinding halt. A Secure Defence system is designed to pay for itself, often many times over, by preventing these exact scenarios. Think of it not as a defensive expense, but as a strategic investment in business continuity. Our primary goal is to ensure you can open your doors and operate on schedule, every single day. Our live video monitoring and AI-powered detection provide this business continuity protection.
A 2025 business continuity study in BC revealed that the total cost of one day of unplanned downtime is often 5 to 10 times the direct cost of the security incident itself. The damage multiplies quickly through these hidden expenses:
If your storefront can't open or your key machinery is damaged, you lose an entire day's sales or production output. This is a direct, unrecoverable hit to your top line.
Your staff arrives ready to work, but can't due to a crime scene or missing equipment. You are still responsible for their wages, paying a full crew for zero productivity.
Getting a commercial glazier, a specialized mechanic, or an electrician on-site for an emergency call-out comes at a significant premium compared to scheduled maintenance.
For logistics or service businesses, a delayed delivery or missed appointment damages your relationship with clients and can lead to contract penalties or lost business in the future.
Our system directly prevents the specific incidents that lead to these catastrophic downtime costs. The return on investment is realized every time an incident is stopped before it can impact your operations.
