Built Around New York's Dispensary Security Requirements

Under NY Cannabis Law, your security plan and security system must, at minimum, address the following. Here's how a CWC-designed system supports each one.

Intrusion alarms that communicate with an internal designee and a third-party monitoring station.

Cameras on all storage, handling, and sales areas, plus entries, exits, and parking lots.

Operates through power outages, with remote access for you and, on request, the Office.

Audible, text, or visual alert to your representative(s) within five minutes of a failure.

Locked surveillance areas with a current access list available on request.

Locks, alarms, and equipment tested every 30 days max, with 5 years of records retained.

Locked doors/windows and site conditions that prevent concealment and loitering.

Safe storage and controlled transport of cash to financial institutions.

Cannabis storage, incident reporting (breaches must be reported to the Office within 24 hours), and staff training remain the licensee's responsibility — CWC Security's system design, monitoring, and documentation are built to make those obligations easy to meet.
