Secure your sites with cloud–managed intrusion detection and 24/7 professional monitoring

Built on Verkada’s cloud–based Command platform, Alarms provides organizations with tools to detect and respond to threats across their physical spaces.

Verkada Alarms leverages data captured across Verkada devices including cameras, doors, environmental sensors, and intrusion sensors to identify important events and provide visibility as incidents unfold.

Included with Alarms is 24/7 professional monitoring with optional video verification and emergency dispatch capabilities. While your site is armed, trained operators at UL–Listed central stations are standing by to assess and help respond to incidents. Organizations have the ability to provide operators with controlled access to event–based video feeds to reduce false alarms and provide essential context during emergencies.

Assess the Situation

  • Events from AC41 and AX11 controllers (including Door Held Open and Door Forced Open) can be configured as alarm triggers. While your site is armed, agents will review video footage of these events from nearby cameras in real time.
  • If the video footage reveals a threat to people or property, or if no nearby camera is available, an alarm will be raised.

Make Contact

  • When an alarm is raised, agents will call and send SMS messages to the predetermined contact list.
  • If there’s a visible emergency in progress, agents will contact local emergency services immediately.

Take Action

  • If a threat is confirmed by someone on the contact list, or if no one can be reached, agents will dispatch local first responders to the site address.
  • All events can be reviewed, archived and accessed from Command for incident investigation.
