Protection One offers e-Secure system

Lawrence-based Protection One Inc. on Thursday launched e-Secure, a Web-based and text message-based security service for homes and businesses.

The service gives customers access to their own home or business security systems, using an Internet-connected computer, PDA or text-enabled cell phone. The system delivers real-time notifications of important events – such as break-ins or the presence of smoke – through e-mails or text messages.
