Smart Home Security: Tips and Components
We all want a home that protects us not only from the cold and rain but also from technical failures, thieves, or computer hackers. This is all handled by smart home security, which stays under your control constantly. How does a smart home look after your safety?
What is your home capable of?
Multi-level alarm
The system uses several alarm levels to warn off uninvited guests – from flashing lights to audible warnings to high-frequency sirens. In every case, you receive a message on your mobile phone and via email.
Various security zones
Some parts of the house will be guarded constantly – for example, the garage or entrance gate, while other parts only when you are not at home.
Window security
Besides alarms on doors, the smart home allows you to monitor windows and triggers an alarm if they are opened from the outside.
Easy control
Complicated PIN codes to arm the household before leaving? Not needed! You can control the smart home simply using a chip, smart sticker, or fingerprint. Forgetting number combinations is no longer a threat.
Remote control
You can monitor and control smart security remotely – from the office or while on vacation. You have a perfect overview of when the front door was opened, if someone is inside, or if all windows are closed.
Fire detection
The smart home can handle other dangerous situations too. With the help of temperature sensors, it can detect a fire and let you know – even if you are out of the house or fast asleep. Plus, it automatically raises blinds and opens windows to facilitate escape and property protection.
Water leak
We can also prevent damage caused by water leaks – thanks to flood sensors and detection of unusually high water consumption, the smart home alerts you or shuts off the water supply immediately to prevent flooding the neighbors or the ground floor.
Miniserver
Your data will be stored on your own local storage – the Miniserver from the Austrian company Loxone. Unlike many other "smart homes" that send sensitive information to external servers (the so-called "cloud"), clients have full control over their data here.
