## Abstract

A home security system and method is provided. The method comprises detecting a motion in a monitored room, starting data collection through at least a first sensing device and a second sensing device, transmitting said collected data to a computing device comprising a data analysis unit, detecting a potentially dangerous situation through the data analysis unit by analyzing said collected data, transmitting a relevant snippet of data of said first sensing device to a first randomly selected service center server, evaluating said snippet of data through a first service center operator as being related to “definitely a dangerous situation”, “definitely no dangerous situation” or “unclear”, if “unclear” was chosen, transmitting the snippet of data to a second randomly selected service center server, and transmitting the snippet of data along with the evaluation of the first operator from the second randomly selected service center server to the computing device.
