Service Providers can leverage the Alarm.com platform to quickly configure and support systems with remote diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities. The recently launched iotega system, from DSC, is an intuitive, completely wireless and fully secure system, using encrypted, long-range wireless PowerG sensors, which provides homeowners and small businesses the ultimate in reliable security and home control.
