Using hard drive on panels for data storage
Methods and systems are described for controlling an automation and security system. According to at least one embodiment, an apparatus for data storage in an automation and security system includes a processor, a memory in electronic communication with the processor, and instructions stored in the memory. The instructions are executable by a processor to receive data at a first device, store a copy of the data on the first device, fragment the data into a plurality of data fragments, transmit the plurality of data fragments to a plurality of remote devices, and store some of the plurality of data fragments on each of the plurality of remote devices.
1. An apparatus for backup data storage, comprising:
a processor;
a memory in electronic communication with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive data at a first wireless device;
store a copy of the data on the first wireless device;
fragment the data into a plurality of data fragments;
encrypt at least one data fragment of the plurality of data fragments; and
transmit the plurality of data fragments to at least one remote control panel, wherein the plurality of data fragments are at least stored by the at least one remote control panel.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
initiate a retrieval of the stored copy of the data on the first wireless device; and
determine the retrieval failed for the stored copy of the data.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
request the plurality of data fragments from the at least one remote control panel based on the determination; and
reassemble the plurality of data fragments based at least in part on requesting the plurality of the data fragments.
4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
store the reassembled plurality of data fragments at the first wireless device.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the instructions for fragmenting the data into a plurality of data fragments are further executable by the processor to:
code the plurality of data fragments with origination data.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the instructions to receive the data at the first wireless device are executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive the data from a mobile device associated with a user authorized to interact with the apparatus.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first wireless device is a television or a control panel.
8. A computer-program product for backup data storage in an automation and security system, the computer-program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by a processor to:
receive data at a first wireless device;
store a copy of the data on the first wireless device;
fragment the data into a plurality of data fragments;
encrypt at least one data fragment of the plurality of data fragments; and
transmit the plurality of data fragments to at least one remote control panel, wherein the plurality of data fragments are at least stored by the at least one remote control panel.
9. The computer-program product of claim 8 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
initiate a retrieval of the stored copy of the data on the first wireless device; and
determine the retrieval failed for the stored copy of the data.
10. The computer-program product of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
request the plurality of data fragments from the at least one remote control panel based on the determination; and
reassemble the plurality of data fragments based at least in part on requesting the plurality of the data fragments.
11. The computer-program product of claim 10 , wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to:
store the reassembled plurality of data fragments at the first wireless device.
12. The computer-program product of claim 8 , wherein the instructions for fragmenting the data into a plurality of data fragments are further executable by the processor to:
code the plurality of data fragments with origination data.
13. The computer-program product of claim 8 , wherein the instructions to receive the data at the first wireless device are executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive the data from a mobile device associated with a user authorized to interact with the automation and security system.
14. The computer-program product of claim 8 , wherein the first wireless device is a television or a control panel.
15. A computer-implemented method for backup data storage in an automation and security system, comprising:
receiving data at a first wireless device;
storing a copy of the data on the first wireless device;
fragmenting the data into a plurality of data fragments;
encrypting at least one data fragment of the plurality of data fragments; and
transmitting the plurality of data fragments to at least one remote control panel, wherein the plurality of data fragments are at least stored by the at least one remote control panel.
16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
initiating a retrieval of the stored copy of the data on the first wireless device; and
determining the retrieval failed for the stored copy of the data.
17. The method of claim 16 , further comprising:
requesting the plurality of data fragments from the at least one remote control panel based on the determination; and
reassembling the plurality of data fragments based at least in part on requesting the plurality of the data fragments.
18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:
storing the reassembled plurality of data fragments at the first wireless device.
19. The method of claim 15 , wherein fragmenting the data into a plurality of data fragments further comprises:
coding the plurality of data fragments with origination data.
20. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
receiving the data from a mobile device associated with a user authorized to interact with the automation and security system.
