Intrusion Prevention

The right answer here depends on your needs and location:

• Hardwired intrusion systems work by physically connecting sensors to a control panel, using a traditional landline to communicate with the outside world (like a monitoring station).
• With a wireless system, the sensors are connected to the control panel wirelessly and the control panel to the outside world via a cellular connection.

Keep in mind that wires can’t be run in certain locations, making a wireless, GPS, or solar security system your optimal choice.

Depending on the nature of your property (layout, the types of resources it houses, etc.), certain areas need to be protected more than others. With the right intrusion prevention system, you can identify and partition these zones with their own access control and monitoring tools. Our team is able to work with you to determine the number of zones you need.

The key question here is whether components will be located indoors or outdoors. If anything (cameras, keypads, etc.) must be located outside, you need to ensure it will be durable enough to stand up against elements like rain, wind, and snow.

If your components are located inside, make sure you consider any location-specific risks that could affect them. Industrial manufacturing facilities, for example, might need to consider fire- or explosion-proof cameras.

An intrusion prevention system can be crafted to be as simple or complex as you need it to be.

At its most basic, an intrusion prevention system includes sensors at entrances that set off when triggered to deter intruders. Adding CCTV and access control can increase your visibility and allow you to keep track of who’s coming and going.
