Audio Intrusion Detection
Sonitrol WNY's audio intrusion detection uses sound-based technology to verify break-ins in real time. When triggered, monitoring professionals listen to confirm intrusions before dispatching police. This system achieves 20% apprehensions prior to entry and maintains a 3% false alarm rate, the lowest in the industry.
