Security Guards and Gaming Surveillance Officers

Most security guard and gaming surveillance officer jobs require a high school diploma. Gaming surveillance officers sometimes need experience with security and video surveillance. Most states require security guards to be registered with the state, especially if they carry a firearm. Security guards generally need a high school diploma or equivalent, although some jobs may not have any education requirements. Although most employers provide instruction for newly hired security guards, the amount of training they receive varies. 

Most security guards learn their job in a few weeks. Many states recommend that security guards receive approximately 8 hours of pre-assignment training, 8-16 hours of on-the-job training, and 8 hours of annual training. Most states require that security guards be registered with the state in which they work. Security guards and officers must communicate effectively with others, even in stressful situations. Security guards and officers must be able to quickly determine the best course of action when a dangerous situation arises. 

Security guards and officers must be alert and aware of their surroundings, and be able to quickly recognize anything out of the ordinary. Security guards and officers may need to spend long periods standing and observing their environment without distractions.

Alarms and Home Security Systems

You should select an alarm system according to your unique situation and your budget. Many security companies offer packaged systems that you can compare side by side. If you experience frequent power outages, a security system that uses battery back-up would be a practical choice. False alarms can happen frequently, and some cities impose fines for multiple false alarm calls. Monitored alarm systems: These systems connect the alarm to a monitoring company that is able to call the police or fire department if a disturbance is detected. 

Unmonitored alarm systems: These alarms create a loud noise that is audible both inside and outside the home. Alarm pros say having an unmonitored system is still better than having no security system at all. Wireless alarm systems: These systems also don't require monitoring. Electric Current alarm systems: These alarms use an electrical pulse to monitor all the windows and doors in the home. Many security systems can add on additional security features such as infrared and sound-wave sensors. 

You can also ramp up your security level with more sophisticated add-ons such as a closed-circuit camera system for full monitoring inside your home and out. Panic buttons: These buttons are ideal for bedrooms so you can signal the alarm to call for help without having to leave your room.

3 Ways to Install a Security Camera System for a House

Plug the camera into your router using an ethernet cable. Run the software that came with your camera to set a password for the camera, and to see the IP address your router has assigned it. Type this IP address into your web browser address bar, and log in to your camera settings to get it running on your WiFi network. You can now unplug the camera and move it anywhere within range of the router signal. A battery backup keeps your surveillance system functioning in case of a power outage. 

It's a good idea if you're leaving the house unoccupied, if power outages are common in your area, or if you're protecting high-value items. As for the wearable cameras, it's hard to spot them if someone is recording you. You can typically expect 150 feet indoors or 350 ft outdoors, but this varies greatly by camera model. These numbers go way down if the camera doesn't have a direct line of sight to the receiver, or if there are nearby wireless transmitters competing for the same wavelength. Intruders will be less likely to break into a place they know has security, because they don't want to risk getting caught. 

Yes, you only need an internet connection if you want to access your camera feed remotely. If your camera setup is to be used remotely, you will need to use an unused IP address in the range of your other devices.

Build a Raspberry Pi Security Camera Network

In this project I am going to make a Raspberry Pi security camera simply using the standard Pi camera such as the one I used in the time-lapse tutorial. If you want to see how to setup the Raspberry Pi security camera visually then check out the video i have prepared below. You will need the following equipment in order to complete this Raspberry Pi security camera project. Firstly before we do anything we need to have a Raspberry Pi camera. How to setup multiple network Raspberry Pi security cameras. 

This is a great way to setup a strong Raspberry Pi security camera network. Now that you have your Raspberry Pi security cameras setup it might be worth considering allowing access to the central Pi so you can monitor your cameras elsewhere. Under this menu you can specify where you would like the files stored for the Raspberry Pi Security Camera. Here you can set the Raspberry Pi security camera to take still images whenever motion is triggered, during specific intervals or all the time. In here you can activate the Raspberry Pi security camera motion detection that is included in the software. 

The Raspberry Pi security camera system is a great way to have multiple cameras hooked up both locally and over a network. I hope this tutorial has helped you in creating a fantastic Raspberry Pi security camera network.

Security company in Bellevue vandalized

BELLEVUE, Neb. (KMTV) - An Omaha home security company based out of Bellevue is using its own camera to help track down a thief who stole items from outside their building. Chris Malmberg, the owner of Omaha Security Systems Inc. says an unidentified man stole nearly $300 worth of landscaping Sunday night. "The motion sensors went off and I got a notification on my phone that he was there. We saw him take the plants, we watched him drive away and then immediately contacted police," said Malmberg. "He was real nervous, but he ended up stealing shrubbery, Hosta plants, I mean - never in my life have I ever known somebody to steal landscaping." Malmberg said the plants could be replaced, but what's frustrating is that this is one of several vandalism incidents his business has experienced since OSSI moved into the building near Jefferson and Mission Ave. "We've had vandalism, we've had items stolen, or attempted to be stolen, with the security that we...

Study: Majority of U.S. Broadband Households Concerned About Security of IoT Devices

As Internet-connected devices become more ubiquitous, security and privacy concerns of end users are also on the rise. Simply installing security systems in smart homes is no longer enough. Security integrators must also consider bolstering cybersecurity measures when installing their systems. A recently released whitepaper from IoT research firm Parks Associates, titled “Residential Security and Encryption: Setting the Standard, Protecting Consumers,” reveals that 64% of U.S. broadband households are concerned about security and privacy when using their connected devices. Parks Associates also found that the majority of homeowners assume security integrators are addressing their cybersecurity concerns. In fact, a Parks Associates survey of U.S. security owners found 63% of professionally monitored subscribers believe the wireless signals from their system are encrypted, even though encryption is currently not the industry-wide standard. While the whitepaper outlines a few ...

Ring Alarm review: A great DIY home security system with the potential to become even better

Ring builds some of our favorite video doorbells and security camera/outdoor lighting mashups. Now the company—recently acquired by Amazon—is moving inside the home with a strong and inexpensive DIY home security system: Ring Alarm. It’s a fantastic product today, and Ring says it will only get better with time. Ring Alarm is positioned as a mainstream home security system, and while you won’t find a great deal of innovation here (there’s nothing like the Nest Detect sensor that comes with the much-more-expensive Nest Secure system , for example), it’s already equipped with everything it needs to grow into a comprehensive smart home system. Ring Alarm doesn’t support smart lighting controls, door locks, thermostats, garage-door openers, or other common smart home products today, and there’s a very short list of supported third-party products. But it lacks nothing needed to support those and similar devices down the road. And in an intervi...
