Abstract

Smart security refers to advanced security systems, that utilize biometrics and CCTV footage, to ensure the security of a property. Biometrics are unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, and iris scans that are used for authentication purposes. These characteristics are measured and used to ensure the authenticity of the individual attempting to access the secured property. Closed-circuit television (CCTV) is a monitoring system that allows users to view live events and record them for future reference. This system comprises cameras, monitors, and recorders that are used to keep track of events happening around the property. With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), it is now possible to remotely monitor and secure properties through a network connection. In the context of home security, the idea of incorporating smart security systems is gaining popularity. This idea focuses on physical perimeter security and a smart wireless database that keeps track of information processed, accessed, modified, and broadcasted through home security systems. In the event of an intrusion, the system can activate security measures such as the use of honeypots and sandboxing mechanisms using intrusion detection systems (IDS) and intrusion prevention systems (IPS). The system also keeps records of all events for future reference. Moreover, the methodology discussed here can also be utilized for security automation by using code binaries. The advantage of this system over others is that the alerts and logs can be managed and operated by the user through a mobile application, even when not connected to the internet, using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology. This makes the system more accessible and convenient for the user. the proposed idea of smart security provides a fool proof shield that protects all resources within the perimeter of a home. With the use of biometrics and CCTV footage, this system ensures the security and safety of the property and its resources.
