Security cameras are the vanguard of home security systems. With the advent of digital security cameras, anyone can enhance their home security system.

A home security system can easily be networked to a home computer. Many IP-based security cameras are plug and play, although the resulting drain on the computer's capacity may noticeably slow the computer down.

When selecting cameras for a home security system, consider what options are necessary. While motion sensors and infrared capability are nice, they are not required. Not even color is a necessity. Black and white security cameras may be more effective for a home security system due to their enhanced ability to distinguish objects in dim light.

What is important in a home security system is the placement of the cameras. Wide angle lenses placed in rooms can capture any movement in them, while high-resolution cameras placed at entries provide ready identification of anyone entering.

Home security systems can be viewed remotely through a cell phone, PDA or laptop. Most home security systems keep their data encrypted and password protected in order to prevent unauthorized intruders viewing and potentially altering the data feed. The software necessary to obtain the remote viewing often provides an email alert when the camera detects activity.
