Arlo Secure 7 Adds AI Threat Detection and Daily Video Recaps
Carlsbad – September 18, 2026 -- Arlo Technologies has launched Arlo Secure 7, a software update that adds AI-driven threat detection and automatic video summaries to its home security cameras, rolling out to subscribers over the next month.
Threat Assessment flags break-ins and fires within seconds
The new Threat Assessment feature scans camera footage to distinguish real emergencies -- break-ins, fire, armed threats, or theft -- from routine activity. When it detects a high-risk event, the system automatically responds, turning on a camera's siren or spotlight, sending urgent alerts that override Mute and do-not-disturb settings, or escalating the situation to a live Safety Agent for possible emergency dispatch. Arlo says the feature is designed to trigger action within seconds of an event being detected.
