    A Few of the Most Significant Ways in Which Intrusion Security Has Evolved

    intrusion securityApproximately 10-25% of all calls to the police are for alarm activations, but it wasn’t always that way. Intrusion security has come a long way since the invention of the lock and key. We live in a truly technological age, which has provided countless innovations in countless industries, including residential and commercial security.

    If you’re wondering just how reliable and effective security systems have become, here are some of the most significant innovations in the field.

    Video Surveillance Cameras

    Surveillance video has been around for a while, but there have been tons of improvements over the years. While the early days of surveillance footage only offered blurry pictures of intruders, cameras can now be equipped with facial recognition technology and provide higher resolution videos. This makes identifying criminals much easier than it was in the past. These innovations are all the more reason for business owners to invest in video security.

    Perimeter Security

    Walls and fences, while still used to ensure security, aren’t the only ways to protect property anymore. Perimeter security systems can alert you to movement outside of a building and give you ample time to contact the appropriate authorities before a crime even occurs on your property.

    Security Badges and Access Systems

    Sometimes the best way to fix something is to leave it alone. Although security badges can now contain chips or magnetic strips that will grant access to certain spaces, a photo ID is still just as effective as it was 30 years ago. Facial recognition technology is great, but you can manipulate technology. You can’t manipulate human eyes. Modern access control combined with security badges can be extremely effective.

    Smart Security

    One of the biggest innovations in intrusion security is convenience. Smart technology, like those security programs linked to mobile devices, are simple and effective for homeowners and business owners alike. You can now check up on your building from the other side of the planet. Forgot to activate your alarm before you left the house? Just open the app and activate it from your phone.

    From security cameras to perimeter alarms, there are countless innovations that have made the world a safer place to be. These are simply a few of the many commercial security system innovations that have helped protect people and property.
