SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INCREASING SECURITY IN SYSTEMS USING MESH NETWORKS

摘要

Systems and methods for increasing security in security systems and alarm systems that use mesh networks are provided. In some embodiments, such systems and methods can include a mesh controller activating diagnostic, configuration, and control functions of a service device in response to physical activation of the a verification device, the service device using the diagnostic, configuration, and control functions of the service device to add a new mesh element to a plurality of mesh elements, and one of the plurality of mesh elements detecting a signal transmitted during an assigned time slot of the one of the plurality of mesh elements from a device other than the one of the plurality of mesh elements and, responsive thereto, disrupting transmission of the signal.
