Each time I hear about a break-in, theft, or other physical security incidents at a facility these days, I think of one of my dad’s most-loved analogies. “The time to discover you need a plunger isn’t when the toilet’s overflowing.” Crass, yes. But so true, isn’t it? As one of nine kids, remembering this colourful adage saved me a lot of grief throughout my childhood. It still does. And now I can’t help wondering, with all that’s on the line, why...

Even the most reliable security equipment is never fully protected from false alarms. Most of the time, they occur due to simple oversights, hyperactive pets, or incorrect installation. But when the security companies react to false alarms, they risk getting late in case of a real emergency. Some send security patrols to check the unverified alarms right away. The others count the detector triggerings before responding and lose precious minutes in the result. In any case, false alarms bring str...
