Protecting Your Property in Minera

With Minera's property crime rate at 10.8 per 1,000 people per year, which is substantially lower than the UK average, proactive home security remains important.

Unlike reactive DIY setups, scOS intervenes in real-time, utilising multi-camera intelligence to monitor all areas simultaneously.
