**Verified Alarm Response Program (VARP)** is a critical initiative implemented by several police departments across the country. The program aims to address the high percentage of false alarms generated by alarm security systems. While false alarms are often caused by user error or improper installation of detection devices, they consume valuable police resources and can lead to delays in responding to genuine emergencies.
Under VARP, alarm companies, monitoring centers, and citizens must verify an alarm before police are dispatched. Verification can occur through various means:
1. **Two-way voice communication**: Confirming a security breach through direct communication.
2. **Video confirmation**: Providing visual evidence of criminal activity.
3. **Key-holder communication**: Verifying unauthorized activation or a breach.
4. **Cross-zone activation**: When two or more independent alarm devices are activated.
Importantly, VARP allows police to focus on verified emergencies, ensuring faster response times and reducing unnecessary dispatches for false alarms. While panic, hold-up, or duress alarms remain exempt from verification requirements, the overall goal is to enhance public safety through efficient and effective alarm response.
