IP
IP video backbone
PoE switching, VLAN segmentation and resilient recording tiers sized for retention policy.
Protection platform
IP CCTV & smart premises surveillance
Design surveillance as an evidence and response system — not a camera count. Hello Trading integrates IP video, analytics and incident workflows for estates that cannot tolerate blind spots.
The challenge
What operators struggle with today
Many organisations inherit fragmented CCTV: mixed vendors, unclear retention, no standard escalation and operators juggling multiple clients. Incidents take longer to resolve because video is hard to find and share.
Upgrades often add cameras without fixing architecture — increasing storage costs while leaving coverage gaps at transitions, loading bays and perimeter zones.
Architecture before procurement
We map interfaces, retention policies and escalation paths before specifying devices — so systems stay coherent after handover.
Overview
Platform scope
Hello Trading designs smart-premises surveillance: IP CCTV, VMS selection, visitor tracking hooks, emergency alert paths and analytics such as intrusion, face recognition, PPE and behaviour cues — tuned for operations.
Capabilities
Core features
AN
Edge analytics
Line crossing, loitering, PPE and crowd detection tuned to reduce false alarms.
EV
Evidence workflows
Export, watermarking and audit trails aligned to legal and internal review needs.
CM
Command integration
Video pops on access alarms, fire events and help-point activations.
DR
Failover recording
Edge buffering and redundant paths so gaps do not appear during link loss.
CY
Cyber hardening
Firmware governance, credential rotation and isolated camera VLANs.
