In this instalment of the SJUK Leaders in Security Podcast, Security Journal UK’s Deputy Editor, Millie Marshall Loughran, is joined by Ben Lea, Account Manager for the North of England, Scotland and Ireland at GJD.
In this episode, Ben breaks down the concept of layered security systems - what they are, why they matter and how multiple technologies work together to create stronger, more reliable protection.
Through a series of practical, technically grounded questions, we explore how detection, illumination and video can be integrated to reduce false alarms, enhance performance in low-light environments and support a more resilient, efficient security setup.
Listeners will gain real-world insight into how effective multi-layered systems are assessed, designed and deployed across a range of environments.
Ben brings over eight years of industry experience working closely with integrators and end users across the North of England, Scotland and Ireland. His hands-on approach - often spent on-site evaluating system performance - enables him to quickly identify a customer’s needs, recommend appropriate technologies and ensure that each installation delivers the correct level of protection.
Ben’s practical knowledge and his experience give him a unique understanding of how layered systems operate in the field and how illumination and detection can be adapted to meet complex security challenges.
