Protecting Your Home and Family with a Security Camera System

Discover the Benefits of Smart Security and Home Automation for the Ultimate Protection

Smart security cameras have been making headlines with their ability to learn as they watch, coming to know normal from suspicious behavior and alerting homeowners to potential trouble before it occurs. While integrating this level of security offers greater home protection, there is even more you can do to protect your home, assets, and family. 

When you integrate your intelligent security camera system with home automation and alarm systems, you achieve advanced, interactive security measures. Surveillance cameras, motion sensors, automated lights, and door locks work together to protect what matters most. 

Here, we’ll explore how these systems work and the benefits and peace of mind they bring to homeowners in Virginia Beach, VA.

A Smart Security System

An intelligent security system knows when something’s not quite right, whether the unusual event is a strange car pulling into the driveway or someone lingering along the edge of your property. You’ll receive an immediate alert and, no matter where you are, can look at the live video camera feed to determine if a call to law enforcement is warranted. 

Under the power of Control4 automation, these systems also integrate with door locks and security lighting, locking all the doors when potential trouble is brewing and flashing the security lights to scare away potential burglars. This type of security lighting also lets neighbors know something isn’t right. 

If someone attempts an intrusion, the alarm immediately sounds, the lights begin flashing, and the live security video feed appears on every TV.

Security Features and Home Automation

When your security system is tied into your home automation platform, you can see the status of your entire home at a glance. Know what doors are locked, if the side gate or garage doors are open, and view triggered sensors. In addition to motion, glass breaking, and doors and windows opening, these sensors also detect excessive heat or moisture that may occur with potential environmental damage, water leaks, or furnace failure.

Thanks to the remote access feature, you can manage your security system from anywhere, locking doors, turning lights on and off, and setting the security alarm no matter where you are in the world. 

Presence Simulation for Proactive Protection

When leaving for the day or a long weekend, you can also set up the Mockupancy system. This system turns lights on and off randomly, similar to what would occur when you’re home. When integrated with automated shades, your window coverings raise and lower throughout the day, further creating the illusion that someone is home. Called presence simulation, law enforcement agencies highly recommend this form of security as one of the best intrusion protections, and smart home security and automation make this a possibility for you.
