Written by When we think of multi-tier security we are mostly picturing locks on windows and doors some form of CCTV System and an alarm.
Well hating all those in place is certainly a good base to start from, there are a few more steps that can be implemented to strengthen your security posture.
Having a strong and reliable security system through the multi-tier method means for every aspect of the process you use more than one method.
For example.
Doors and windows will have 2 different locks on them.
Preferably from different manufacturers and key types. This will reduce the chance of being copied, picked, or bypassed.
Your CCTV Systems are both wired and WiFi-based with a hard drive and cloud storage again try to use more than one company when setting up your system. This will dramatically reduce the risk of failure as if one goes down the other takes over.
And your alarm system is both visual and sound from the premises as well as informing you and a professional security response center with a rapid response time local to your area.
Keynotes to take from this method of security.
1. Always think redundancy more is stronger than one.
2. Use multiple manufacturers for your security system to reduce the risk of product failure.
3. Apply the use of wired and wireless technology for CCTV and alarms increasing your ability to backup in case one goes down.
