Protecting Your Home in Addlestone

Given Addlestone's property crime rate of 33.1 per 1,000 people, which is consistent with the UK average, residents should consider robust home security measures. Relying solely on traditional security cameras that merely record incidents means you often only have footage of a crime after it has occurred. For truly effective protection, a proactive approach is vital. Systems like scOS, an AI-powered home security operating system, are designed to prevent crime before it happens. By detecting threats at your property boundary using multi-camera intelligence, scOS ensures constant vigilance without false alarms, thanks to its pattern learning capabilities. When a genuine threat is identified, it can trigger an autonomous response, activating lights and speakers to deter intruders and remove their element of surprise. This professional-grade deterrence is a powerful tool, as most burglars make a rapid decision to target a property. A visible and active system like scOS can make them move on, preventing the crime and safeguarding your Addlestone home.
