Security

Beyond theft protection, people and businesses are installing security systems as a second set of eyes and ears to detect a variety of situations that need immediate attention. Modern M2M-enabled smart home security systems, a growing segment of the Internet of Things, are significantly improving security, visibility and transparency as well as propelling innovation in the security sector.

M2M technology enables secure connectivity and a wide range of advanced capabilities including NFC-enabled locks controlled by smartphones, videos streaming, listen-in capabilities on voice channels and high-performance battery management systems with long standby times. Since the modules are extremely compact, they can be easily built into small devices and are less likely to be spotted by thieves.​

Twofold security net
Cellular M2M technology can make existing systems more secure by quickly integrating new sensors to extend security capabilities and sending data over secure mobile wireless networks and cloud-based platforms.

Flexibility
M2M-enabled wireless alarm systems can be installed anywhere quickly and easily, even by the users themselves. Lacking fixed-line networks, they can be easily reinstalled in the case of a move.
