A cutting-edge smart security system designed to detect unusual activity inside homes has been launched in Dubai. Unveiled during GITEX GLOBAL 2024, the system was introduced by Dubai Police in partnership with e& UAE to improve the safety of both homes and properties.

According to the Dubai Police website, the advanced system utilizes motion detectors capable of distinguishing between everyday activities and potential threats. Discreet door and window sensors are strategically placed at entry points, detecting unauthorized access and immediately triggering an alert to a 24/7 monitoring center. A touchscreen hub serves as the control panel, enabling users to manage all connected devices.

Masood M Sharif Mahmood, CEO of e& UAE, stated, “For the first time in the UAE, we are integrating IoT-based home security systems with immediate police response to detected movements. This is a significant step towards transforming residential areas into smart, secure environments”.

The system uses state-of-the-art IoT sensors that detect irregular activities, paired with surveillance cameras that are monitored around the clock by e& UAE security centers. This setup ensures that any suspicious movement triggers an immediate response. The system can also be linked directly to a specialized operations room, allowing authorities to take swift action to verify any potential threats.

Customers will receive real-time alerts through a mobile app when any unusual activity is detected. They have the option to manage the system independently or connect it to a specialized monitoring center for further support, according to a statement by Dubai Police.

As the primary technology provider, e& UAE handles the system’s entire operation, from customer registration and installation to ongoing maintenance and technical support. The Dubai Police will oversee the integration for customers who choose to link their systems to the specialized operations room.

Altegio, a digital business ecosystem featuring sophisticated online booking and management solutions, has announced its entry into the UAE market, aiming to enhance operational efficiency and accelerate digital adoption for local enterprises.

This expansion also complements the UAE’s Digital Economy Strategy, which aims to increase the digital economy’s share in the nation’s non-oil GDP to over 20% by 2031. Projections indicate the UAE’s digital sector could contribute an estimated $140 billion by 2032, highlighting the region’s commitment to fostering a modern, tech-driven economy.

Altegio’s platform offers over 30 distinct management tools that automate as much as 80% of routine business operations. Its suite of services includes online booking options, a customizable mobile app, robust financial and inventory management, analytics, SMS and email marketing, and a customer loyalty program.

Altegio’s key differentiator lies in its customer-focused approach to business automation. Unlike many platforms that redirect customers to external sites, potentially exposing them to competitor services, Altegio’s booking system is embedded directly within each company’s own ecosystem. This prevents “cannibalization” of clients and enhances customer loyalty by maintaining a consistent, secure experience.

By providing a comprehensive suite of business automation tools, we aim to not only accelerate operational efficiency but also redefine how businesses engage with customers”.

Founded in 2022, Altegio operates as a network of independent firms with offices in the UAE, Brazil, Hungary, Cyprus, Armenia, and several other nations. Each regional hub integrates local partners and technologies to enhance Altegio’s core offerings. The company’s impact includes an annual gross merchandise volume (GMV) of $1 billion, a client base of over 10,000 across 89 countries, and more than 4 million bookings each month on its platform.
