Whether for a single location or a commercial enterprise with sites scattered
across several states, Anderson Security Integration has a solution for you to take
control of your video-based security needs. When the CamCloud Surveillance
system is installed at your business, there is no longer a need to purchase new
recording equipment, backup systems, or do you have critical floorspace absorbed
by massive storage cabinets for maintaining recorded footage.

Designed to work with most of the leading brands of cameras on the market
today, you can have full confidence that you have the largest support available in
the market today. The CamCloud platform is entirely PLUG & PLAY with no
elaborate configuration required or the need for extensive service expertise to get
set up. The CamCloud system is a hardware-free platform, allowing access and
control of an infinite number of cameras or physical locations, all while fully
integrating into your local systems, storage devices, and video encoders.

When there is an issue with any of the cameras in your account, you will be
notified via text or e-mail. The CamCloud system also sends an alert if
unauthorized motion has been detected. While you also have an unlimited number
of users on your account, you can restrict the account privileges or which users
have access to view specific cameras. You can maintain and store essential video
surveillance safely off-site, where it cannot be compromised, in duration intervals
of 7, 14, 30, 60, or 90 days.

Through the streamlined TIMELINE feature of the mobile app, your own
private cloud archive is just a click away. Better yet, it can integrate with most
solutions you may already own in the event your internet service provider goes
down and is viewable through the cloud app. Without the CamCloud Surveillance
system installed at your business, your security remains vulnerable to a hardware
failure, damage by fire or water, and remains susceptible to burglary or employee
theft.

You are already miles away from home. After a quick u-turn, you race back toward home and hope everything is still safe. What if you forget to set the thermostat or take proper measures for a sudden overnight freeze and are already gone for vacation? Forgetting to set your security alarm or environmental controls can result in loss; due to theft or damage which, can cost you thousands. But what if these types of common mistakes are entirely preventable? A Geo-Services system is the answer you need to remain connected to your home, even when miles away. Not only does the system alert you when you leave, based on your geographic location, but a Geo-Services system from Anderson Integration (ASI) can automate these systems; to automatically arm or set the temperature inside the home. It also allows for constant monitoring from either an iPhone or Android at no additional cost. Best of all, it’s easy to set up! Just install the ASI app on your mobile device, log in using your unique identification and password, enable Geo-Services under the SETTINGS menu, then view and set up Geo-Fences, which by default is a set perimeter around the home. You can tailor your system to your own needs by creating rules and notifications. For example, you can have video recording be disabled when your system gets disarmed, or you are at home with no additional effort on your part.

Are you tired of walking into a cold home then having to wait for the temperature to rise to your comfort level? Just widen the geofence radius around your home and set up climate control rules so that your home begins adjusting the temperature inside the home automatically before you have even made it to the neighborhood. Let Ron Anderson and the team at ASI demonstrate the ease of the Geo-Services package and why it is right for your home.

Package_Theft_Prevntion

According to Gallup, the average American family will have spent almost $1,000[1] on Christmas gifts this year, at least half of which will consist of online purchases.[2] Just a year ago, more than two billion online shoppers contributed to exponential growth in online transactions – a figure which is expected to top six-trillion dollars by 2023.[3] That means a lot of holiday packages left at the doorstep! Unfortunately, up to one third of those gifts for our kids, friends, or other relatives will never get to be opened on Christmas morning and financial losses more than five-billion dollars4.

With fewer holiday shoppers venturing out to brick-and-mortar stores, a growth in online purchases also results in an increased opportunity for “package piracy”. According to one 2019 survey, at least 30% of Americans have experienced some level of package theft. Because of this trend, some states have enacted Porch Piracy laws to increase punishment and deter theft[4] However, in most states law enforcement has their hands tied to proactive measures that would prevent theft and led innovators such as former NASA engineer, Mark Rober, to partner find a solution on their own.[5] While most people do not have the determination or resources to develop our own deterrent7, many companies are responding in their own way.

Although there are some proactive suggestions for not leaving packages unattended, such as ship to store[6] or alternative delivery locations such as delivery to a neighbor9, getting tracking and text alerts, adding signature requirements, or even opting for the installation of a porch lockbox[7], most are ineffective or just not at all practical. Among the solutions[8] recommended, one retailer has developed a plan to encourage their patrons to allow access by their delivery drivers to the garage. Providing access to your garage or other areas of your home to un-vetted persons is not at all maintaining security for your family.

The experts at Anderson Security Integration (ASI) should be your go-to source that offer solutions which are the best options for deterrents to package theft and prevention[9]. Security experts will agree, the installation of security cameras and video doorbell systems should be considered to stop it from happening in the first place. With ASI fully integrated security systems, the motion cameras will send automatic alerts to your mobile device the moment a package is delivered as well as if anyone even approaches it. The moment someone steps near your door, you are able to interact with them directly through Skybel, a two-way audio camera system. This way you can instruct a delivery driver to better conceal your package or deter any would-be thieves from running off with your packages. When the undeterred package pirate does manage to take off with any item that has just been delivered, the high-definition video can provide the authorities with the best chances to identify the culprit and prevent them from stealing from your neighbors and friends. Make the call to ASI today! Tell them Harry and Marv sent you!

A shadowy figure peers through the window, taking full advantage of the crack that was inadvertently left between the blinds and the curtain to peer into your living room, his eyes shifting left to right to detect any movement on the other side of the glass. He quickly surmises that no one is at home and makes his way over your fence and to the seemingly unguarded backdoor. He pulls a prybar from beneath his coat and inches closer to the door. Suddenly an alarm is triggered, and bright red LED lights pierce the darkness and begin to flash, as a camera with IR‐ equipped night vision captures the look of panic forming across his face. He hears a voice stating boldly, “You need to leave! The cops are on the way!” Still stunned by how he triggered an alarm, he drops his tool and flees from the scene.

You smile, as you have not only deterred a break‐in at your home, but now you know you can give the authorities an excellent description of the perpetrator. All captured in 1080p over your Wi‐Fi outdoor video camera with two‐way audio! With Perimeter Guard™s proactive defense, you get a 117‐degree field of view to any potential intruders. Video Analytics sound an alert and flash a camera's LED when unwanted visitors are detected. Customers can choose the option of a loud whistle, a beep, and flashing red lights to drive away thieves. The best part, you don’t even need a doorbell to get alerts and utilize the two-way audio features. With the built‐in microphone and speaker, you can interact with visitors even when you are away. The camera has integrated video analytics for smarter detection and more relevant alerts, so you won’t get alerted every time a bird or squirrel comes into view. The onboard recording feature with Smart View technology delivers continuous, local, encrypted recordings that can be stored on a microSD card (sold separately) or view the footage from anywhere on any mobile device.  Let Ron Anderson and his team of security experts at Anderson Security Integration (ASI) turn your home's cameras into a proactive frontline defense against potential intruders with the Outdoor 1080p Wi‐Fi Camera.

When the teenagers are too hot, but grandma is freezing! You check the thermostat. Just as you expected, the temperature is a comfortable setting you usually enjoy. Rooms facing the summer sun or winter north winds typically are the hardest to maintain a comfortable temperature, but even more so when trying to keep an entire house adjusted to varying comfort levels with only one thermostat controlling the system. The typical thermostat only monitors the temperature of one room, usually in a hallway or other area that has little or no temperature loss due to traffic in and out of the house. When the home; is not occupied, it is generally a good idea to adjust temperatures to save energy costs during peak hours. But, takes a lot of extra time and additional energy usage; to bring the house to the level of comfort you hope for when you arrive home.

Regardless of the conditions outside, the Smart Thermostat system can adjust the temperature; so that the home is heated or cooled to the desired temperature before you get home. The best part – it can target specific rooms with remote temperature sensors installed throughout the home, gradually heating or cooling until the desired comfort level in each room is reached. It is time to get serious about saving energy and keeping more money in your wallet! A typical system will conserve up to 23% of your winter heating energy and up to 16% of summer cooling energy, resulting in an 8% savings off your bill with an ASI Smart Thermostat. The system can be integrated with your existing smart thermostat and is compatible with peak hours or other demand-response programs used by most utility companies nationwide. You set the preferences you want for each room, and the Smart Thermostat by ASI will deliver the savings whether you are at home or away. The Smart Thermostat, when fully integrated into the ASI app, allows temperature control and system programming at your fingertips or by voice command for adjustment of the temperature in your home from anywhere in the world.

But convenience and saving money are not the only benefits you will get! The ASI Smart Thermostat can automatically respond to your existing home security system when you leave or arrive and give you peace of mind that; your most valuable investment; will be protected from unexpected emergencies. If there is a fire or carbon monoxide leak, the ASI system pauses your thermostat automatically to slow the spread of flames or fumes. The Smart Thermostat's temperature sensors will also protect your family from mold by detecting any areas vulnerable to higher levels of humidity. In the most frigid winter months, the ASI app notifies you of low temperatures or HVAC malfunctions that could allow water pipes to freeze and burst, causing thousands of dollars in damages.

Let Ron Anderson and the team of experts at Anderson Security Integration (ASI) design a system for your specific needs. Call today!

You finally settle in to relax on that first day of the long-planned Christmas vacation, and your phone rings. A frantic voice of the neighbor you entrusted to watch your home informs you that shortly after your departure, the temperatures dropped lower than expected, and you had a pipe burst, flooding your home with water.

In almost every case, pipe ruptures occur within the walls, under sinks, or behind appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters. The threat remains virtually invisible until it is too late. Although they caught it early and the damage could have been far worse, it could have been prevented.

The ASI Water Management system offered by Anderson Security Integration monitors your water usage to detect leaks and automatically shut them down. If temperatures drop and the basement needs a boost of emergency heat, your ASI Water Management system will let you know. Water temperature monitoring and your system's remote temperature sensors will help provide that peace of mind you need to enjoy a worry-free vacation away from your most expensive investment for your family, your home. Homeowners can remotely turn the home’s water on or off with their integrated ASI security app. They can protect the most susceptible areas of their home with small, wireless water sensors that provide instantaneous alerts 24/7 adding another layer of home security. As soon as a water issue is detected, the system can automatically shut off water to the home when a sensor is triggered.

Beyond leak detection, the added feature of sump pump sensors provides constant monitoring to alert when the water level rises too high or when the pump has malfunctioned. Excessive water usage; running toilets can be discovered by using the ASI Water Management system.

The best part? The ASI Water Management system fully integrates into your current ASI security system! When you face a sudden emergency, the ASI Water Management system is always on guard. The few minutes it takes to call could be the difference between the years of recovering from a disaster and the peace of mind that comes with proactive prevention.

Let Ron Anderson and his team of security experts at Anderson Security Integration (ASI) provide your family with 24/7 support of the latest innovative solutions. Contact us today for pricing and availability!
