However, they connect to a secure cloud server. This allows you to control and monitor your system via your mobile phone, tablet or PC - from anywhere in the world.
If you're wondering how 'secure' this mysterious cloud server is, you'll be pleased to know it's managed by the alarm manufacturer - and Blake's only supply intruder alarms from the best manufacturers around, like Texecom, who use the latest, most reliable software.
If you have a monitored alarm that qualifies for Police response, the alarm receiving centre (ARC) can determine the situation for you. Otherwise, you can contact the Police yourself after receiving the mobile notification.

In the event of a power cut or router failure, your Smart Alarm will continue to function normally on back-up batteries. However, without an internet connection, you cannot remotely control your alarm or IP cameras from your mobile app.
Once your internet or mains power is back up and running, the secure cloud and mobile app will continue to work normally.
