RANCHI: Apprehending large-scale violence during Jharkhand Bandh called by the Opposition parties on Thursday against changes in the land bill, State Police will deploy more than 5,000 security forces besides keeping a close vigil on the protesters through CCTV cameras installed on all sensitive locations. "People should carry out their day to day activities as usual and there is no need to panic during the bandh called on Thursday as adequate security arrangements have been done," said the Home Secretary SKG Rahate. In addition to that, two companies of Rapid Action Force, six companies of Rapid Action Police and 3100 Home Guards along with tear gas and Riot Control units have also been deployed to maintain law and order during the bandh, he added. "Close watch will be kept on hooligans though Drones and CCTV cameras, installed at all sensitive locations on the basis of which people creating disturbances and taking law and order in their hands could be easily identified, so that action could be taken against them," said Rahate. If required, pallet guns could also be used and action would be taken against them with electronic evidences through fast-track courts, he added. Members of Opposition parties, however, organized a torchlight procession from Ranchi University to Albert Ekka Chowk in Ranchi on Wednesday and appealed to the people to support the bandh called by them.

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.

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...
