Here's the professional's guide to smart home security (free scorecard and checklist)

Hey smart home pros - use this Online Tool as a checklist to remind you what you should do on every job, or use it as a thorough scoring system to determine how well you have secured a system.

Hey smart home pro’s - here’s an online tool that gives you a security scorecard for every electronic system you install so you can show your clients how secure their new system is (before I show them how secure it’s not). Need help? Find us at mtgtechnology.com. - Daniel

How to Use The Online Tool

Use the Online Tool as a checklist to remind you what you should do on every job, or use it as a thorough scoring system to determine how well you have secured a system.

To use the Online Tool:

  1. Select the products and devices to be installed or configured. PASSWORDS, NETWORKING and MODEMS/ROUTERS are required sections and make up approximately half of your score, because these are the most critical parts of securing a system.

  2. Walk through each section, which outlines what you need to do to secure those devices and subsystems.

  3. See your final score for the system.

  4. Forward the final score email to your client, reinforcing how you secured their home in accordance with security best practices.
