What incident Reporting System does

Incident Reporting System is one of the modules societies ask for most. In short, it lets guards and residents log a security incident with photos and notes, routed to the right person — removing a task that used to depend on a register, a phone call, or someone remembering.

Key benefits

  • Incidents documented as they happen, not from memory.
  • Routed automatically to the committee or admin.
  • Photo and note attachments supported.
  • Searchable incident history for the society.

How it works

1
Turn it on

The admin enables incident Reporting System for your society from the Secure Nest dashboard — no separate installation needed.

2
Set your rules

Configure it to match how your society actually works: who can approve, what gets logged, and who's notified.

3
It runs itself

From here, incident Reporting System works in the background — residents, guards, and the committee all see the same up-to-date record.

Why societies choose this

Societies that switch to incident Reporting System usually do it after one too many disputes or missed handoffs around this exact task. Once it's digital, the same information is visible to residents, guards, and the committee at the same time — which is usually what actually resolves the friction.

Frequently asked questions

In most cases, yes. Incident Reporting System runs on the Secure Nest app and dashboard, and where hardware is involved (like cameras or access devices), it's designed to work alongside common existing setups rather than requiring a full replacement.

Yes — it's built for residents and staff who may not be comfortable with complex apps. Most residents are up and running within their first use, and guards typically need only a short walkthrough.

Yes. Records created through this module are stored securely and access is limited by role, so residents, guards, and committee members only see what's relevant to them.
