Since 2023, Caroli Sécurité Privée has expanded its offering with an innovative video surveillance solution integrating AI. The company aims to provide a modern security system capable of remote, real-time monitoring with maximum coverage. It combines surveillance cameras, intelligent alarm systems and human supervision to deliver enhanced protection.
With the creation of its own video monitoring center, the company has reached a key milestone. It has deployed a video surveillance system based on intelligent video stream analysis. The objective: optimize alert processing, improve alarm verification and increase team responsiveness.
Interview with Frédéric Ordan, Deputy Director of Caroli Sécurité Privée.
A Complex and Demanding Technical Environment
Founded in 2001, Caroli Sécurité Privée is a Monaco-based company specializing in event security and the protection of sensitive sites. Drawing on recognized expertise, it has been supporting institutional, professional and private clients for more than 20 years.
Caroli Sécurité Privée’s monitoring center remotely monitors a large property. The site includes several areas: car parks, entrance halls, pedestrian and vehicle entrances, etc.
The site is covered by several dozen surveillance cameras distributed across different sensitive areas. The camera network combines analog and IP cameras connected to infrastructures using various protocols. This video surveillance system must remain operational continuously across a large and diverse perimeter. This technical heterogeneity makes monitoring more complex.
In addition, the alarm system is triggered excessively by environmental factors: wind in the trees, regular foot traffic, stray animals or moving vehicles.
We were overwhelmed. There were too many alarms coming in from every direction.
Frédéric Ordan, Deputy Director of Caroli Sécurité Privée
This overload directly affects operator responsiveness. Alarm verification becomes less effective. The need for an intelligent system capable of prioritizing alerts quickly became essential.
AI-Powered Monitoring to Process Alerts Upstream
To reduce this workload, Caroli Sécurité Privée chose Azursoft’s Horus remote monitoring solution, which natively integrates the video AI developed by Gaard. This intelligent surveillance system analyzes images in real time and assigns an intrusion score to each sequence. This allows the video stream to be filtered and unnecessary interventions to be avoided.
If the AI determines that an alert is irrelevant, it is automatically filtered out. Otherwise, it is presented to the operator together with the information needed to make a decision. This reduces false alarms and focuses attention on critical incidents.
Even with average-quality images or in low-light conditions, the AI works.
Frédéric Ordan, Deputy Director of Caroli Sécurité Privée
Retraining the AI based on site-specific data enables continuous improvement. Video stream analysis becomes increasingly accurate, even within a mixed technological environment. The system continuously learns, improving the relevance of alerts.
AI Integration: Tangible Results for Video Monitoring
Caroli Sécurité Privée structured its teams to support the progressive deployment of AI. The AI learns in stages through a confidence-level system. Initially, every alert is checked by operators. As the success rate increases, the filtering level is adjusted.
The surveillance system therefore becomes increasingly reliable, allowing teams to focus on genuinely critical situations. The security system becomes more responsive without creating unnecessary workload. Real-time processing becomes a major advantage for preventing and responding to incidents.
I’m impressed by how quickly it learns. Today, more than 85% of false alarms are successfully filtered out. We can clearly see what the algorithm is doing. We remain in control.
Frédéric Ordan, Deputy Director of Caroli Sécurité Privée
Tangible Benefits from the First Few Weeks
The benefits were measurable from the very beginning:
- Reduction in false positives caused by vegetation or animals
- Time savings for operators
- Greater accuracy in intrusion detection
- Reduced mental fatigue thanks to a lighter workload
Integrating AI into the video surveillance system has restored clarity to alert management. This has improved operational performance as well as operators’ day-to-day working conditions.
AI is being talked about everywhere. But here, it’s tangible. It’s not a gimmick. It’s a real professional tool designed for real-world use. We see it in action. It genuinely helps us every day.
Frédéric Ordan, Deputy Director of Caroli Sécurité Privée
A Scalable Infrastructure Adaptable to Every Type of Site
By customizing AI scenarios, detection models can be adapted to very different environments: residential properties, industrial sites, car parks, public events, etc.
This flexibility is essential for companies looking to go beyond simply viewing their surveillance cameras.
We can genuinely create detection models specific to a particular activity and fine-tune them according to the site.
Sébastien Lamy, President of Gaard
Conclusion: AI as a Powerful Tool for Video Monitoring
The project led by Caroli Sécurité Privée demonstrates that properly integrated artificial intelligence can genuinely transform remote monitoring. It is no longer simply a technological promise, but a tangible operational tool.
By combining a proven video surveillance system, motion detectors, a responsive monitoring center and embedded AI, the center has successfully filtered out irrelevant alerts and made real-time video streams more fluid.
This new approach strengthens security without making monitoring more complex. AI acts as an intelligent assistant, capable of processing data upstream and directing operators toward genuine threats. The result is a more responsive, more reliable security system that is better suited to real-world operational requirements.
Caroli Sécurité Privée does more than monitor remotely: it anticipates, prioritizes and adapts. This scalable, business-focused model paves the way for augmented security, where technology strengthens rather than replaces human expertise.
