“With Avigilon Alta technology, we no longer need to invest in a separate security system at each shopping center, saving us a substantial amount of money.”
Ola Stavnsborg, Group Security Manager

Building a strong foundation of security
The Olav Thon Group deployed the future-proof Avigilon Alta solution, formerly Ava Security, to improve security across their shopping centers, parking lots and hotels.
Challenge: Expand security operation
The Olav Thon Group’s operations are fast-growing, and as their business expands in Norway and Europe, the need to quickly and efficiently scale up its security operations becomes a necessity. With siloed, fixed security tech and video security setup incapable of integrating, the Group realized they needed to implement a new solution — a unified platform that would allow them to proactively detect and respond to security threats while enabling them to scale up rapidly as the business grows.


Solution: Cloud-native video security
The Olav Thon Group used Avigilon Alta tech to manage security challenges across their shopping centers, parking lots and hotels.
Unified security operations
By integrating other security systems with Alta Video, operators can manage and perform their duties on this powerful yet simple interface.
Secure spaces for customers
With the AI-powered Avigilon Alta cameras, the Group’s parking lot security teams can now effectively monitor their sites for safety and security.
Result: A future-proof solution that delivers
Olav Thon Group’s security teams can now perform tasks without having to switch between different software, saving time and money. The Alta cameras have assisted the parking lot security teams in verifying incident reports on their sites before response efforts are made. Alta Video supports post-event analysis by quickly searching hours of footage within seconds. The data from Alta Video has also helped to drive business decisions that help improve customer satisfaction and drive store revenues.
