Protecting Your Property in Feltwell

With Feltwell's exceptionally low property crime rate of 5.4 per 1,000, significantly below the UK average, residents enjoy a highly secure environment. The overall decreasing crime trend further adds to community reassurance. Nevertheless, even in the safest areas, proactive security measures are paramount.

This system offers proactive protection by detecting threats at your property's boundary, stopping them before a break-in. With multi-camera intelligence, scOS watches all cameras simultaneously, learning your routines to identify real threats and avoid false alarms.
