theft prevention technologies

Theft prevention technologies are tools and methods used to deter or detect theft. Common examples include alarm systems that sound when unauthorized access occurs, surveillance cameras that monitor activities, and security tags on merchandise that trigger alarms if not removed at checkout. Electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems use magnetic or radio frequency tags that alert staff when stolen items pass through exit points. Additionally, access control systems manage entry to secure areas using keycards or biometric scanners. Together, these technologies help protect property and enhance security in various environments, from stores to homes.
