Security camera installation in Westborough, MA

Galaxy IT & Marketing is an authorized Lorex dealer serving Westborough, MA. Every system we install records to a recorder in your building — no monthly subscription, and it keeps recording with the internet down.

Westborough work is mostly commercial and mostly in multi-tenant buildings, which makes it as much an IT job as a camera job. That suits us — we came to cameras through IT support.

Multi-tenant offices and shared buildings

The I-495 and Route 9 interchange concentrates corporate offices and tech tenants, and a camera install in a shared building is a negotiation before it is an installation. Who owns the common areas, where the recorder can physically live, whose network it sits on, and what the landlord will allow you to penetrate.

We keep tenant systems on their own isolated network segment with the recorder inside the tenant space. It avoids the awkward situation where your footage lives on a landlord's infrastructure, and it means moving suites does not mean rebuying the system.

Cameras as part of the network, not bolted onto it

IP cameras are network devices, and installed carelessly they are a genuine security liability — default passwords, exposed ports, firmware nobody updates. We segment them off the business network, change credentials, disable the remote access features that do not need to be on, and document what was done.

That is the part most camera installers skip, and it is the part that later becomes an incident. If we already handle your IT, the camera system just becomes another managed piece of it.

Server rooms and after-hours access

The other regular request here is coverage on server rooms, wiring closets and rear entrances — specifically to know who went in and when. Paired with door contacts, that answers the after-hours question that logs alone usually cannot.

Westborough questions

Can we install cameras in a leased suite?

Yes, and it is most of our Westborough work. The recorder lives inside your suite so the footage is yours, and we work with the property manager on anything that touches common areas or requires penetrations. Most landlords are fine with it once they understand nothing lands on their infrastructure.

Are IP cameras a security risk on our network?

They can be, and frequently are. Cameras shipped with default passwords and open remote access are a well-known entry point. We put them on an isolated network segment, change every credential, turn off the remote features you do not need, and document it. If we already manage your IT, it is handled as part of that.

Can we tie cameras to door access?

Yes. Pairing camera coverage with door contacts on server rooms, wiring closets and rear entrances gives you both the event and the picture, which is what you actually need when you are reconstructing an after-hours access question.
