Smart Home Security Is Only Half the Job: Physical Weak Spots Homeowners Often Miss
Smart locks, video doorbells, motion sensors, and connected cameras have changed what home security looks like. You can check the front porch from another state, lock a door from your phone, or get an alert when someone walks into the backyard. Useful? Absolutely. Complete protection? Not quite. A smart home still depends on ordinary doors, windows, garages, exterior walls, and a network of devices that need attention. Some weak spots are digital. Others are surprisingly low-tech. A better approach is to look at the house as a series of security layers and check what could fail in each one.
