Not all security cameras are created equal. Although many people believe that security cameras are made to solve crimes when they happen, Flock Safety cameras take a proactive approach and work to prevent crimes before they occur. 

The difference lies in Flock Safety’s Hot List alerts, which notify law enforcement when a known suspect’s vehicle is in the area. These real-time notifications work by connecting Flock cameras with data from the National Crime Information Center and local law enforcement agencies. 

When a vehicle with a warrant or a stolen vehicle passes a camera, officers receive a notification enabling them to respond accordingly, and prevent the suspect from committing any further crimes. 

To see these how the Hot List can deter crime in your community, schedule a free demo today.
