Abstract
A computing system may cause transmission of a short message service (SMS) message to an endpoint device, the SMS message being indicative of a signal for an alarm condition present at a monitored location. The computing system may determine that a reply to the SMS message from the endpoint device includes a command to take an action with respect to the alarm condition. The computing system may retrieve, from one or more data stores, context about an incident at the monitored location. The computing system may send, based at least in part on the command and the context, at least one instruction to take an action with respect to the alarm condition.
