For casino operators, money (both cash and chips within the facility), customer data and network infrastructure, such as gaming networks and video surveillance systems, are the assets that require the most protection.
 
Chips are usually tracked with RFID technology to prevent theft and counterfeiting. With RFID, chips carried by guests can be detected by scanners installed at entry and exit points. Cash, on the other hand, is stored in a series of safes in the vaults monitored by surveillance cameras.
 
Surveillance cameras also play a critical role in casino security. They help to identify anyone who is not allowed by law to be in casino, like minors and banned individuals, as well as weapons, and devices used for cheating. To provide comprehensive protection, cameras should be capable of face recognition and object identification.

Surveillance cameras play a critical role in casino security, through helping to detect suspicious events in real-time or for post-event investigation. But as AI develops, advanced facial and object recognition capabilities means they will likely play a critical business intelligence role that goes beyond security in the future.

Real-time event detection is used largely for parking lots and other high-risk areas. Alerts will be issued upon detection of predefined events, such as loitering and vehicles moving in an unauthorized direction, with security staff immediately notified of suspicious events, allowing them respond in a timely manner.
