Caesars Palace, an iconic hotel and casino in the heart of Las Vegas, is a symbol of grandeur and entertainment . With its Roman-inspired architecture, world-class amenities, and a reputation for hosting A-list performers, Caesars Palace draws millions of visitors each year, making it one of the most bustling and vibrant spots on the Las Vegas Strip. The constant flow of guests means top tier security is essential. The use of LVT mobile security units played a crucial role in maintaining a safe and secure environment.

DOUBLING DOWN ON SAFETY

The security company responsible for safeguarding Caesars Palace, P.F.I.,  oversees security operations across 430 properties nationwide. At many of these locations, P.F.I. implemented LVT mobile security units as an additional layer of surveillance. According to Chief of Security Jonathan Alvarez, these units are a significant crime deterrent. “Any property we have placed an LVT Unit, we have seen a substantial drop in crime,” he said. Alvarez highlights that these units are not just useful for one-day large-scale events, but can play a vital role in daily use where safety and security is top priority.

HIGH STAKES SECURITY: Features that Work

Security officers have the invaluable ability to access a comprehensive database of high-quality video footage. This resource is instrumental in aiding local police, enabling them to review footage and leading to the arrests of homicide suspects and other violent criminals.

The advanced zoom capabilities on LVT cameras allow security personnel to capture the smallest details, such as license plates, make and model of a vehicle, clothing graphics, and clear images of faces. In the densely populated areas around Caesars Palace, the cameras provide vital coverage of locations that are difficult to monitor because of the large crowds. This enhanced surveillance not only improves guest and employee safety but also extends the reach of security operations.

In one incident, the security team moved the camera to follow an armed suspect. Thanks to the detailed descriptions captured by the high-resolution zoom, the suspect was apprehended in what Eric Golebiewski, VP of Security Operations at Caesars Entertainment, described as "one of the fastest apprehensions" he had ever witnessed. Providing these officers with real-time footage during such incidents ensures both officer safety and the apprehension of criminals. LVT’s extra eyes in the area ensure that these aims are consistently met.

THE HOUSE ALWAYS SEES: Mapping out your Surveillance

The LVT App is designed for simplicity and efficiency. Golebiewski loves how he can see a comprehensive map of the cameras in his network with just a few clicks. This interface allows users to access live feeds from any camera on the property, ensuring that security personnel can always stay informed and maintain real-time awareness of all activity. The ability to seamlessly switch between feeds empowers security teams to respond swiftly and effectively to any situation, enhancing overall safety and control.

A Winning Hand

Both Golebiewski and Alvarzes recommend LVT as a way to enhance security strategies. For their teams, the benefits have been undeniable. The successes range from effective deterrence, to the invaluable live view, to advanced zoom capabilities of the cameras. The LVT Units have consistently delivered, playing a pivotal role in making properties safer and more secure. Adding LVT to any security plan is a move that significantly elevates protection and peace of mind.
