Most CCTV systems are passive; they record footage that you might look at after a crime has occurred. scOS is a proactive intelligence system. It uses our proprietary MotionX technology to identify "important activity"—like a person walking up your drive—while ignoring "noise" like wind, rain, or animals. This means zero false alarms. Unlike traditional systems, scOS also intervenes. It uses automatic boundary detection to spot intruders and then uses escalating responses, such as smart lighting and AI voice warnings, to deter them. It’s like having a digital security guard for your Norton home that never sleeps.

Yes, scOS is designed to be brand-agnostic. It works with almost any existing wired IP camera system, including Hikvision, Dahua, and Reolink. During our professional installation process, which takes about 4-6 hours, our UK-based engineers will integrate your current cameras with our Intelligence Hub. This transforms your existing "dumb" cameras into a smart, AI-powered network. It’s a great way for residents in Norton to upgrade their security to the latest AI standards without the cost and hassle of replacing all their existing hardware.

scOS uses a three-step approach to keep your property safe. First is Presence Simulation, which uses AI to mimic your home's normal activity patterns, making it look occupied even when you're out. Second is our MotionX detection, which identifies people regardless of how they are moving or if they are trying to hide their faces. Finally, if someone enters your property, the system triggers an active intervention: automatic lighting and authoritative voice warnings from external IoT speakers. This combination of looking occupied and reacting instantly to threats makes your home a very unattractive target for criminals.

We take your privacy very seriously. scOS is a 100% UK-based company, and all your data is stored in secure UK data centres, fully compliant with GDPR. We never sell your data to third parties. The system uses a "Local + Cloud" model: the Intelligence Hub on your property handles the AI processing locally for speed and privacy, while the cloud is used for secure remote access and alerts. You have full control over your data and recordings, which are stored for up to two weeks, ensuring your privacy in Norton is always protected.

A video doorbell is a reactive tool; it tells you someone is at your door, but it doesn't protect the rest of your property. scOS provides whole-property intelligence, monitoring your driveway, side gates, and gardens. While doorbells often have a delay and can be triggered by every passing car, scOS uses MotionX for instant, accurate detection of real threats. Most importantly, scOS is proactive—it uses voice deterrents and lighting to stop a crime before it happens, whereas a doorbell usually just records the person who is already breaking in.

Norton's proximity to the A19 and A1 makes it a convenient location for commuters, but it also means that vehicles can be a target for thieves who can make a quick getaway. scOS includes DVLA vehicle recognition, which logs the registration of every vehicle that enters your driveway. You can ask the scOS Director, "What cars have been here today?" and get an instant report. This is a powerful deterrent against vehicle theft and helps provide South Yorkshire Police with high-quality evidence if a suspicious vehicle is spotted in the area.

Norton is a quiet village, and we know that residents value their peace and the look of their homes. Our professional installation team is expert at discreetly fitting scOS hardware. We use wired connections for maximum reliability and to prevent jamming, but we take great care to hide all cabling. The cameras and IoT speakers are positioned to give the best AI coverage while being as unobtrusive as possible. During the 4-6 hour installation, our engineers will work with you to ensure the system meets your security needs without affecting your home's kerb appeal.

scOS is designed to be incredibly easy to use. You don't need to be a tech expert to manage it. Our "scOS Director" is a conversational AI that you can talk to just like a person. You can ask questions like, "Was there any unusual activity last night?" or "Did the gardener come today?" and get a natural, easy-to-understand answer. This makes managing your home security in Norton simple and stress-free, giving you the information you need without having to scroll through hours of video footage.
