    a first file embodied in memory of the surveillance system that defines a plurality of use scenarios of the secured area, one of the plurality of use scenarios being selected as applicable to the secured area;

    a second file corresponding to the one of the plurality of use scenarios embodied in the memory of the surveillance system that defines critical surveillance areas of the secured area based at least upon the one of the plurality of use scenarios and a respective triggering condition for each of the critical surveillance areas, wherein the second file corresponding to the one of the plurality of use scenarios includes a respective identifier of respective ones of the plurality of cameras that correspond to each of the critical surveillance areas;

    a user interface of the surveillance system; and

    a processor of the surveillance system that preferentially displays a respective video stream from each of the respective ones of the plurality of cameras that correspond to a respective one of the critical surveillance areas when the processor determines that the respective triggering condition for the respective one of the critical surveillance areas has been met,wherein the processor automatically displays the respective video stream from each of the respective ones of the plurality of cameras that correspond to the respective one of the critical surveillance areas in a respective window of the user interface at a preferential location of the user interface, andwherein the processor determines that the respective triggering condition for the respective one of the critical surveillance areas has been met independently of respective content of the respective video stream from each of the respective ones of the plurality of cameras.
