Cloudastructure, a Multi-Award Winner in the 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program, has debuted statistics of their new integrated Remote Guarding software and global guard services and released Q1 and Q2 statistics for the company’s sales.

The sales statistics were encouraging: by the end of Q2 2023, Cloudastructure achieved a 101% increase in subscription services and hardware sales over the same period in 2022.

Subscription services are defined as using Cloudastructure’s AI surveillance platform, remote guarding, and access control services.

The company attributed the increase in sales to a variety of factors:

1. Escalating traction within a multibillion-dollar real estate market

2. Significant growth in the company’s new Remote Guarding software and services

3. Increase demand for new surveillance camera products

The statistic is particularly enticing because the company’s new integrated Remote Guarding capabilities and services were only available to a limited number of customers until mid-Q2 2023.

Despite the limited release of Cloudastructure’s most recent capabilities, the company nevertheless saw over a 100% increase in subscriptions in the first two quarters.

Cloudastructure noted at their annual shareholder meeting in February 2023 that their new hardware offerings, combined with Remote Guarding software and services, has the potential to increase each deal by as much as 75%.

Meanwhile, the debut statistics for the company’s Remote Guarding services are also proving to be a game changer for property management customers.

Cloudastructure’s Remote Guarding Service delivered:

• Over 119,000 alerts across all customers promoting proactive security measures

• 7,005 “Talk Downs” where remote guarding agents deterred potential incidents

• Of the 7,005 “Talk Down’s”, 1,260 were deemed “Suspicious,” requiring a more direct warning letting would-be assailants know they are being watched and recorded

In every case, the individual in question ceased what they were doing once they knew they were being monitored in real-time. In other words, Cloudastructure’s cloud video surveillance platform and remote guarding services offered 100% deterrence to their customers, reducing losses while increasing safety.

Buoyed customers, in return, delivered a 100% Net Promoter Score for Cloudastructure’s platform and services.

“We are on a path that can potentially put a serious dent in crime in this country,” explained Cloudastructure CEO Rick Bentley.

“Our AI services combined with human guards for detailed appraisal and intervention is powerful.”

“Our end-to-end security solution is delivering real ROI to customers by putting a stop to the vast majority of the losses they have historically experienced.”

The 2022 exclusive sold-out ‘ASTORS’ luncheon featured representatives of law enforcement, public safety, and industry leaders who came together to honor the selfless service of those who stand on the front lines and those who stand beside them – providing the capabilities and technologies to create a safer world for generations to come.

Last year marked the 20th anniversary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which came out in force to discuss comprehensive collaborations between private and public sectors that have led to the development of intelligence and technologies which serve to protect our nation.

The keynote address was provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Office of Field Operations (OFO) Deputy Executive Assistant Commissioner (DEAC) Diane Sabatino, who described the changes to CBP through the tragedy of 9/11 and the relentless commitment to its mission and ongoing investment in the latest technologies and innovations to protect our borders and Homeland.

The resounding theme of the DEAC’s remarks was her pride in the women and men of the CBP and their families who support them.

AST was also joined by Legendary Police Commissioner William Bratton, who spoke about his love for the City of New York, the Profession of law enforcement to which he has dedicated his life, and for which he continues to drive thought leadership and innovation.

New York City Police Department (NYPD) Chief of Department Kenneth Corey, came out to address Luncheon attendees and shared some of his experiences and the changes in policing he’s witnessed over his more than three decades of service.

FDNY Chief Joseph Jardin honored the men and women of the FDNY, not only those who currently serve but all of those who have selflessly served, with special recognition of those lost on 9/11.

Chief Jardin spoke about the continuing health battle of many following 9/11 with cancer and respiratory disease, yet now knowing the full consequences, would not have made a different decision to respond.

As Chief Jardin noted, mission-driven service is the lifeblood of every firefighter, volunteer, and sworn member, and has been so throughout the history of the Fire Service.

Former head of the FBI’s active shooter program, Katherine Schweit joined AST to sign complimentary copies of her book, ‘STOP THE KILLING: How to End the Mass Shooting Crisis, thanks to the generosity of our 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Sponsors.
