A Trusted Partner in Public Sector Security

When Oxford City Council needed a new CCTV system, they chose CDS. The result? A high-definition system that improved safety for vulnerable people at night while being "very easy to use" for operators.

Public sector organisations across the UK face growing pressures: budget constraints, ageing systems, and the urgent need to modernise CCTV and integrated security infrastructure. In this climate, choosing the right specialist partner is critical.

At CDS Security Services, we understand these challenges because we've solved them. With a proven track record designing, delivering, and evolving security systems for councils and police authorities across England and Wales, we don't just provide technology—we build long-term partnerships that deliver results.

"CDS were successful contractor to provide a new CCTV system for Oxford. Engineers provided support throughout the contract and were able to respond to any changes that came about quickly and succinctly. The new and improved system along with a number of new cameras has improved the safety of vulnerable people at night along with general monitoring of the city. The operators find the system very easy to use and imagery is of a high definition. Oxford City Council has worked with CDS for a number of years providing a professional response to all our needs."
