Protect Your Property and Family with A Home Security Installation

No matter the neighborhood, trouble and the threat of robbery are always a possibility. Law enforcement studies show that houses with advanced home security installations are less likely to be targeted. In cases where thieves gain entry, they are caught an average of five to eight times more readily when a surveillance system is used.

You have a lot of options when it comes to security, and you might even be considering one of the aggressively promoted over-the-counter systems. The cheap DIY-centric packages make lots of promise about feature sets and simple installation. Regrettably, while some products have their merits, these devices are often lacking in many critical areas. What does not come standard is robust network security, reliability, or image clarity. Video surveillance is like many things: you get what you pay for.

Are you looking for a better way to protect your family and Brunswick, GA, smart home? Read below to learn how a professional install serves you best.

SEE CLEARLY

One of the most determining factors when comparing professional packages with IoT is video quality. Smart doorbells and mini camera devices have made great strides, but they have a long way to go.

Ultra-high-definition cameras and recorders are capable of 4K resolution video. Unfortunately, many wireless IoT devices barely generate highly compressed 720p, 1080p, or worse. The result is a loss of essential details. Police and insurance require a superior image quality to process claims; it is the difference between capturing accurate facial details or a blur.

Would you settle for lesser video quality in your media room? Why accept it from the system installed to protect your family?

HOW SECURE IS YOUR SECURITY?

Despite their conveniences, low-cost solutions are designed to be cheap and disposable. To minimize costs, manufacturers often use lower-grade lenses, questionable all-weather housings, and insufficient network safeguards.

Consumer-grade cameras communicate over Wi-Fi to transmit video, sound, and connection credentials with the bare minimum of encryption. More challenging passkey systems take up more bandwidth, more processing, and require more expensive chipsets.

The remarkable truth is that nearly all name-brand IoT devices are crackable with tools easily found on the internet. In addition, a brand-name maker of smart doorbells and cameras announced that its products now automatically search out and connect your home cameras to your neighbor's network by default! Of course, it would be unacceptable if your internet service provider said this; why would you allow it from the security cameras inside your home?

RELATIONSHIPS MATTER

A professional smart home security system can act and react with other control platforms as part of your smart home ecosystem.

With an automation system monitoring your temperature and humidity sensors, you can be advised if the levels in your wine cellar drop below a safe range. In addition, damage from a leaky HVAC or frozen pipes can destroy your valuable artwork, fine furniture, and electronics. An integrated surveillance and security system alerts you to these issues before they become devastating.
