Comcast Breaks Into Security Market

  • PDF

In USA, Comcast is the first ISP to enter the home automation and security services market.

Comcast Xfinity

Comcast's offering, Xfinity, handles video monitoring, alarms, lighting and heating. One accesses all online through either PC or smartphone. There's also an option for text and email alerts.

The company breaks the service into 2 tiers - "Preferred" and "Basic". The Basic package includes only limited access to the full mobile access service suite offered. No pricing details are mentioned as yet. But ISPs worldwide see the market to install and handle security as potentially lucrative (with security costs billed together with internet usage) and that will make ISPs direct competitors with security installers.
