Home security alarms have come a long way over the past decade thanks to WiFi, Bluetooth and smartphone technology.
These security systems allow you to monitor your home remotely and receive messages if a sensor detects motion or it hears glass breaking. Many of the systems are also hooked up to cameras that you can place inside and outside your home to check in and monitor anytime you are away.
Also, some security systems function in conjunction with home automation systems that can perform a myriad of tasks, like dimming lights and reminding you if you left the garage door open.
