The Takeaway: Package thieves are looking for the path of least resistance. Cellular security cameras like those from DEFEND offer simple security anywhere and are a visible theft deterrent.
Package theft is significant and on the rise. Across the country, thousands of packages are stolen every day, and tens of millions have felt the impact of this theft. With online shopping also increasing, this is a problem that’s not going away anytime soon.
For many, this is a tough battle to fight. Remote properties, long driveways, and spotty Wi-Fi can make traditional theft prevention measures impossible to implement. That’s where Tactacam DEFEND cellular security cameras come into play.
Wi-Fi Jamming Can Disable Your Wi-Fi Security Camera
Signal jamming is becoming a popular tactic used by porch thieves. With many older security systems relying on your home’s Wi-Fi, small and inexpensive Wi-Fi jammers can provide an easy way for thieves to grab your packages undetected. These devices create noise that jams Wi-Fi signals temporarily, and are increasingly popular in Texas, Colorado, and Illinois, especially in suburban areas with visible Wi-Fi-dependent security systems.
The solution: A DEFEND Cam mounted facing your porch will not be impacted by a Wi-Fi jamming device and record any unauthorized access in ultra-high resolution.
Wi-Fi Has a Limited Outdoors Range
Even strong Wi-Fi signals may only reach 50 feet from the router–making Wi-Fi cameras ineffective if your packages are placed at the end of a long driveway or sidewalk. Same goes if your packages are typically left not at the door but at the edge of a detached garage.
The solution: DEFEND cameras operate solely on 4G networks, meaning you can place one as far from your main house as you want–all you need is a cell signal and you have full coverage.
Nighttime Delivery? You Need 4K For That
Late-night and early-morning deliveries are becoming increasingly popular, especially with same-day delivery services and food deliveries. This creates a problem for those using doorbell cameras, which often have poor IR flash and limited range.
The solution: Cameras like DEFEND 360 have a low-glow IR flash and 75-foot detection range, making nighttime imagery crystal clear.
Never Worry About Dead Batteries Again
Of course, a camera with a dead battery is basically lawn decoration. If your security camera is mounted in a location that is difficult to reach, or if it relies on old AA batteries, you may be missing thieves without even knowing it.
The solution: Dead batteries are a thing of the past with the DEFEND 360. This camera, with pan/tilt/zoom functionality, has an included rechargeable lithium battery and solar panel, so it will continue to work without you needing to worry about it–even overnight or on cloudy days. The DEFEND Cam has a wealth of power accessories to choose from, including a wall adapter, solar panel, and rechargeable battery.

From complicated setup to network interruptions, most home security systems fail to stop porch thieves. DEFEND offers a solution that is simple, affordable, and effective.
