Proactive Protection for Your Adderbury and Twyford Home

Adderbury and Twyford benefits from a property crime rate of 12.9 per 1,000, which is considerably below the UK average. However, maintaining vigilance and implementing effective security measures remains crucial. While traditional security cameras simply record incidents, offering retrospective evidence, they do not prevent a crime from occurring. If you are seeking to actively deter and prevent crime, a more advanced solution is available. AI-powered home security operating systems like scOS provide proactive protection by detecting threats at the property boundary, before an intrusion can happen. Unlike reactive systems, scOS uses multi-camera intelligence to monitor your entire property simultaneously, enhancing deterrence. Features such as DVLA vehicle verification and pattern learning ensure that only genuine threats trigger an autonomous response, engaging lights and speakers to disorient potential intruders. This professional-grade approach ensures that most burglars, who often make a decision within 60 seconds, are deterred and move on, offering a superior level of security compared to systems that merely record events.
