Intrusion Detection
Systems and processes that detect unauthorised entry into a secured area. Combines physical sensors (PIR, fence vibration, thermal cameras) with AI-powered analysis to reduce false alarms.
//Related Terms
Perimeter Security
The protection of a site's outer boundary using a combination of physical barriers, sensors, cameras, patrols, and drone surveillance to detect and deter unauthorised entry.
Anomaly Detection
AI-powered identification of deviations from normal patterns in guard behaviour, patrol routes, sensor data, and system access. Flags potential security issues before they become incidents.
IoT Sensors
Internet of Things devices deployed in security environments — PIR motion detectors, audio sensors, environmental monitors, and emergency call points — feeding data into the Common Operating Picture.
Geofencing
A virtual perimeter defined by GPS coordinates that triggers automated actions when a device enters or exits the boundary. Used in security to define site boundaries, restricted zones, and alert areas.
