How a Squid.link gateway can boost your smart security solution

A growing business opportunity within the security industry are smart security systems, as wireless technologies enable users to monitor and control buildings and homes anywhere, at any time. With the help of a smart security solution, customers are able to monitor the status of doors and windows, control access, and get notifications while away from home in cases of intruders, fires, or floods.

Because of this, having a reliable and protected smart security system is more important than ever, and having a highly secure gateway is a crucial part of this. The Squid.link gateways are perfect for this purpose, as the gateways have been designed with a high level of security. The data transferred within the system is protected, tampering can be prevented to ensure you have a secure system, and the maturity of the platform guarantees you will have a reliable system. This way, as a solution provider, you can offer your customers the highest standard of security.

More than an alarm system

In addition to occupancy sensors, keypads, and sirens, integrating other products can help maximize protection and avoid break-ins. With the Squid.link gateways, your customers can apply time rules to devices such as Smart Plugs and Smart Cables, to turn lights on and off at a given time to simulate occupancy at home.

The gateways’ high processor power also enables your solution to run highly complex smart security systems, including artificial intelligence-based applications such as facial recognition or pattern-based threat detection.
