receive an alarm signal from a premises monitoring system that is configured to monitor a premises, the alarm signal being associated with an alarm event at the premises;
in response to the alarm signal, obtain, from a content storage computing system, metadata corresponding to media provided by a device at the premises;
in response to the metadata, store the media in a data store of the remote monitoring computing system;
generate at least one user portal that is configured to render for display information associated with the alarm event; and
enforce an access control policy on the media in the data store, the access control policy prohibiting a first type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a first period of time, the access control policy further prohibiting a second type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a second period of time, the second period of time encompassing the first period of time and being longer than the first period of time.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first type of user is a monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event.
3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the second type of user is a supervisor of the monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event.
4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the access control policy further prohibits a third type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a third period of time, the third period of time encompassing the second period of time and being longer than the second period of time.
5 . The system of claim 4 , wherein:
the first type of user is a monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event;
the second type of user is a supervisor of the monitoring agent; and
the third type of user is a designated administrator for the remote monitoring computing system.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one processor to:
determine that the metadata corresponding to the media indicates that an object was detected in the media; and
store the media in the data store of the remote monitoring computing system further in response to determining that the metadata indicates that the object was detected in the media.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one processor to:
determine that the metadata corresponding to the media indicates that a person was detected in the media; and
store the media in the data store of the remote monitoring computing further in response to determining that the metadata indicates that the person was detected in the media.
8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one processor to:
cause transmission of a notification of the alarm event to the content storage computing system; and
receive, in response to the notification, the metadata corresponding to the media.
9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the content storage computing system further provides data storage service for a plurality of data storage service customers.
10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the media comprises at least one of video or audio.
11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the at least one processor to obtain, from the content storage computing system, an access token that facilitates obtaining content stored in the content storage computing system.
12 . A method, comprising:
receiving, by at least one computing device of a remote monitoring computing system, an alarm signal from a premises monitoring system that is configured to monitor a premises, the alarm signal being associated with an alarm event at the premises;
in response to the alarm signal, obtaining, by the at least one computing device and from a content storage computing system, metadata corresponding to media provided by a device at the premises;
in response to the metadata, storing the media in a data store of the remote monitoring computing system;
generating, by the at least one computing device, at least one user portal that is configured to render for display information associated with the alarm event; and
enforcing, by the at least one computing device, an access control policy on the media in the data store, the access control policy prohibiting a first type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a first period of time, the access control policy further prohibiting a second type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a second period of time, the second period of time encompassing the first period of time and being longer than the first period of time.
13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the first type of user is a monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event.
14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the second type of user is a supervisor of the monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event.
15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the access control policy further prohibits a third type of user from accessing the media in the data store via the at least one user portal after a third period of time, the third period of time encompassing the second period of time and being longer than the second period of time.
16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein:
the first type of user is a monitoring agent assigned to the alarm event;
the second type of user is a supervisor of the monitoring agent; and
the third type of user is a designated administrator for the remote monitoring computing system.
17 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
determining, by the at least one computing device, that the metadata corresponding to the media indicates that a person was detected in the media; and
storing, by the at least one computing device, the media in the data store of the remote monitoring computing system further in response to determining that the metadata indicates that the person was detected in the media.
18 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
transmitting, by the at least one computing device, a notification of the alarm event to the content storage computing system; and
receiving, by the at least one computing device and in response to the notification, the metadata corresponding to the media.
19 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the media comprises at least one of video or audio.
