Security Cameras Come to the Rescue in a Violent Robbery

Security Cameras verses a Security System, what are the pros and cons?

Best protection of course is to have both!

Here is a link to a News 4 Jax story where the Security Cameras
lead to the arrest of 3 individuals.

A Home Security System's purpose is first of all to prevent
any burglaries from ever happening! If someone breaks into
the home, the next goal is to scare them away with a loud siren.
Third step, is to record the audio evidence (if you have a Two Way
Voice System) and or call the local police to respond.

The main thing, is to prevent the burglary, and if someone
does enter, to get them out ASAP to limit the amount damage
and loss.

Security Cameras on the other hand are more for recording
the burglary to later catch and arrest the suspects. A Security
System on the other hand is more of a deterrent, while the Cameras
are more capture the evidence.

Of course, another thing to consider is where is all the video on the
Security Camera going to be recorded? On a computer, on a DVR,
what happens if they steal the computer or DVR?
