Intrusion Detection System (IDS)

Categories: Tech

Just see "Ring." And buy one. It's the best deal for the buck in intrusion detection.

Why is this term even in a finance glossary? Because insurance companies love this thing. It either helps cops catch criminals, identifying them and then also putting them fully in jail. (It's hard to argue with the judge when the video clearly shows that gal stealing Amazon packages from your porch.) It also deters criminals from stealing in the first place. So the device saves insurance companies fortunes. And little by little, the world is becoming a more protected place.
