Intrusion Detection Systems

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are electronic security solutions designed to detect unauthorized access, movement or attempts to breach protected areas. IDS uses a combination of sensors, detectors, control panels and alert mechanisms to monitor perimeters and internal spaces, generating real-time alarms when suspicious activity is detected.

Intrusion Detection Systems provide early warning and active threat detection, helping prevent theft, vandalism and security breaches. While enhancing the protection of people, assets, and critical infrastructure through continuous monitoring and rapid response integration with CCTV and access control systems.

Intrusion Detection Systems are implemented through a structured, risk-based approach that includes security assessment, selection of appropriate detection technologies such as PIR, microwave, glass-break and perimeter sensors, zoning and alarm logic design, system integration, installation, testing, commissioning and ongoing maintenance.

To ensure effectiveness and legality, Intrusion Detection Systems must comply with applicable security and electrical standards, local authority guidelines, the National Building Code where required, relevant ISO and UL/EN/IEC standards and data protection regulations, supported by regular testing, audits and documentation.

Key value additions include early threat detection, deterrence of unauthorized access, reduced reliance on manual guarding, enhanced situational awareness and improved response times. Perimeter Intrusion Detection Systems are widely deployed in industrial plants, airports, ports, data centers, power plants, warehouses, campuses, defense installations and critical infrastructure, where strong boundary security and compliance with statutory and insurance requirements are essential.

Perimeter Intrusion Detection Systems (PIDS) provide the first line of defense by detecting, deterring and alerting against unauthorized access at a facility’s outer boundary before intruders reach buildings or critical assets. These systems continuously monitor fences, walls, gates, open areas and restricted zones, enabling early detection and proactive response.

PIDS employ advanced detection technologies such as fence-mounted vibration sensors, buried cables, taut wire systems, infrared and microwave beams, radar sensors and video analytics. Technology selection is based on perimeter type, terrain, environmental conditions and threat levels, with intelligent filtering and zoning to reduce false alarms.

Integrated with CCTV, access control, intrusion panels and command centers, PIDS enable alarm verification and rapid response through real-time alerts, camera activation, sirens and automated security actions, while ensuring safety and continuity through fail-safe design, redundancy and power backup.

Interior Intrusion Detection Systems are designed to detect unauthorized movement within protected indoor areas. Achieved through continuously monitoring rooms, corridors, halls and enclosed spaces, ensuring early detection of intruders inside the facility.

Interior intrusion detection systems use technologies such as PIR motion detectors, dual-technology sensors (PIR + microwave), ultrasonic sensors and 3D radar sensors to accurately sense movement while minimizing false alarms.

Key value additions include enhanced internal security, improved situational awareness, faster response times and comprehensive audit logs, making interior intrusion detection systems ideal for offices, data centers, warehouses, retail spaces, and critical infrastructure facilities.

Point Intrusion Detection Systems are designed to detect unauthorized access at specific entry points such as doors, windows, shutters, skylights and hatches, providing focused protection at vulnerable locations.

Point intrusion detection systems use technologies such as magnetic door and window contacts, glass-break detectors, vibration and shock sensors and roller shutter sensors to detect forced entry, tampering or breakage.

Integrated with intrusion alarm panels, CCTV, access control systems and central monitoring platforms, these systems enable real-time alerts, alarm activation, and visual verification. Key value additions include precise intrusion detection, reduced false alarms, improved response time and enhanced protection of critical areas, making point intrusion detection ideal for offices, data centers, banks, retail outlets, warehouses and high-security facilities.
