Intelligent Monitoring Group Launches Cloud AI Video Monitoring In Partnership With CHeKT.
Intelligent Monitoring Group Launches Cloud AI Video Monitoring – Intelligent Monitoring Group (IMG) has launched a dedicated in-house cloud video monitoring offering across Australia and New Zealand, marking a significant shift in its CCTV monitoring strategy.
IMG said the development is a move beyond traditional CCTV monitoring into active, cloud-based threat detection, underpinned by artificial intelligence, analytics, and alarm integration. The offering enables passive camera networks to become intelligent, actively monitored systems capable of delivering verified alerts in real time.
The move comes via a strategic partnership with remote video monitoring specialist CHeKT, and IMG said it positions the company to deliver fully integrated, next-generation video guarding as part of its broader managed services portfolio. IMG’s new video verification platform will be made available through its subsidiary, Signature Security Group (SSG), and rolled out nationally under the SSG partner program.
“This partnership with CHeKT is a strategic step forward for IMG and the wider security ecosystem across ANZ,” said Dennison Hambling, managing director at IMG.
“CHeKT’s technology is purpose-built for the kind of proactive video security that customers want, as it’s fast, accurate, and easy to integrate. Combining CHeKT’s advanced solutions with IMG’s trusted distribution network and technical expertise unlocks new opportunities for integrators to deliver better client outcomes.”
The partnership gives IMG access to CHeKT’s interoperable video guarding technology, which supports a wide range of surveillance systems, making it suitable for both new deployments and legacy upgrades. By integrating real-time video verification with existing infrastructure, the platform aims to reduce false positives, accelerate response times, and enhance situational awareness for monitoring teams and end users.
“At Signature Security Group, we’re all about building strong partnerships and giving the industry smarter, scalable solutions that tackle real security challenges, keep customers protected, and win more opportunities,” said Amanda Wigley, general manager at SSG.
“Making CHeKT’s solutions available through SSG’s partner program opens the door to more security providers across ANZ who are looking to enhance their service offerings.”
The announcement follows growing demand in the ANZ region for cloud-first video monitoring that can keep pace with more complex threats, from coordinated theft to safety risks on commercial and industrial sites. CHeKT’s platform provides a single interface that integrates analytics, alarms, and CCTV for efficient deployment and improved operator effectiveness.
“This partnership represents a major milestone in CHeKT’s international growth strategy and the opportunity to collaborate with one of the most established players in the ANZ security market,” said Wes Usie, president of CHeKT.
“CHeKT is excited to join forces with IMG as its strategic partner in the ANZ region. IMG’s reach, relationships, and commitment to quality make it the ideal partner. Together, CHeKT and IMG are making it easier for security providers to adopt real-time video guarding and raise the standard of service they can offer.”
The alliance also improves accessibility to scalable video verification capabilities that have traditionally been difficult to implement in the local market. IMG’s national footprint and customer base, combined with CHeKT’s deployment tools and technical support, are expected to drive faster rollouts and increase capability at the monitoring centre level.
“IMG and CHeKT both believe in building security solutions that are easy to use, seamlessly integrated, and truly effective in preventing incidents,” said Hambling.
“This partnership isn’t just about expanding market reach; it’s about transforming how video security is delivered and perceived.”
The partnership is already in effect, with collaborative work underway on local projects, technical training, and go-to-market support for integrators across Australia and New Zealand.
