than a key to protect your small business from theft and other breaches that can

Many small business owners turn to business alarm systems, which can be helpful in securing valuable assets, including people, equipment, customer records and intellectual property.
For business owners, installing a business alarm system is one way to stay a step ahead of the criminals.
"The FBI says there is a burglary every 15 seconds," said Robert Siciliano, a security consultant. The statistics do not favor businesses that have been victimized, he said. "Police only catch one out of 10 burglars. The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics show about 16 million property crimes annually.

With no security system in place, a small business owner is risking anything they have inside the business, both hard assets and soft assets, like digital information regarding employees or financials."
