How Video Verification Can Reduce or Eliminate False Alarms
Video Verification • Analytics • False-Alarm Reduction
Turn your existing cameras into intelligent detectors that verify real events — people, vehicles, and animals — and trigger verified alerts to reduce false alarms and speed response.
The Bigger Picture
According to the Center for Problem-Oriented Policing, false alarms account for 94% to 98% of all alarm calls across the U.S., costing emergency services roughly $1.8 billion every year.
Every time a false alarm goes off, valuable police and emergency resources are pulled away from real emergencies. That’s why nearly every city now enforces strict ordinances — and some have even adopted non-response policies unless the alarm can be verified.
