Remote Access

Connect when you’re away

Now you can connect to your home even if you’re away with remote access from Cox Home Security. Not sure if you armed the system when you left for work? Check it and arm it with your smart phone. Want to make sure your kids got home from school? Set a security alert to let you know when the front door opens or take a peek at your security video online. It’s like you’re there… no matter where you are.

  • Convenient connections

    Convenient connections. Choose the remote connection that works for you. Sign in to the Cox Home Security portal to check in and manage your system if you’re near a computer with Internet access. On the go? No worries – use the smart phone app to gain remote access.

  • Remote access

    Remote access doesn’t mean limited access. When you connect with your smart phone app or the web portal, you have almost as much control over your system as you would at home. You can arm or disarm your system, watch videos, check equipment history, control lighting and much more.

  • Your House

    Your House, Your Rules. Customize your system by setting schedules and rules. Have your AC turn on 30 minutes before you get home every day or tell your system to turn on a light if motion is detected. It’s all up to you!

  • Instant alerts

    Instant alerts. What if your system could send a message to let you know that your children got home safe and sound? What if it could let you know that they didn’t? Cox Home Security can send text or email messages when you want them – just tell the system the alerts you want to receive and you’re done.
