Abstract
A server accesses a security system profile of a first security system. The security system profile identifies a plurality of sensors connected to the first security system. The server identifies a second security system based on at least a first sensor of the plurality of sensors coupled to the first security system. The server then generates a notification sharing profile for the first security system based on the security system profile. The notification sharing profile indicates that the second security system corresponds to the first sensor. A first event triggered by the first sensor causes a first notification to the second security system.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- detecting, at a server, an event generated by a first sensor that is externally coupled to a first security system;
- in response to detecting the event, identifying a second security system that is mapped to the first sensor;
- and
- generating, at the server, a message indicating the event
- wherein the first sensor is a water sensor, wherein the event indicates a water leak, wherein the first security system and the first sensor are located in a first geographical location, wherein the second security system is located in a second geographical location that is below the first geographical location.
A server comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the server to perform operations comprising:
- detecting an event generated by a first sensor that is externally coupled to a first security system;
- in response to detecting the event, identifying a second security system that is mapped to the first sensor;
- and
- generating a message indicating the event,
- wherein the first sensor is a water sensor, wherein the event indicates a water leak, wherein the first security system and the first sensor are located in a first geographical location, wherein the second security system is located in a second geographical location that is below the first geographical location.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer- readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:
- detecting, at a server, an event generated by a first sensor that is externally coupled to a first security system;
- in response to detecting the event, identifying a second security system that is mapped to the first sensor;
- and
- generating, at the server, a message indicating the event
- wherein the first sensor is a water sensor, wherein the event indicates a water leak, wherein the first security system and the first sensor are located in a first geographical location, wherein the second security system is located in a second geographical location that is below the first geographical location.
