1. A system comprises:
- a plurality of sensor devices including a first sensor device and a second sensor device, with each of the first sensor device and the second sensor device, comprising;
at least one event sensor element;
a processor device;
a memory in communication with the processor device; and
a storage device that stores a program of computing instructions to configure the processor device to;
receive sensor data from that sensor device'"'"'s at least one event sensor element;
analyze the received sensor data to detect the presence of an alarm condition;
the first sensor device further configured upon detecting the alarm condition, to;
broadcast by the first sensor device, the detected alarm condition to at least the second sensor device along with the sensor data received by the first sensor device, with the broadcast occurring over a peer to peer network;
receive by the processor device of the first sensor device from the second sensor device, results of an analysis by the second sensor device;
analyze by the processor device of the first sensor device, at least the detected alarm condition and the results from the second sensor device to validate whether the detected alarm condition is a valid alarm or a false alarm; and
raise an alarm when the results from the second sensor device confirm the presence of the detected alarm condition broadcasted from the first sensor device.

Abstract
Embodiments of intrusion detection systems are described and which include an intrusion detection panel that receives binary and metadata sensor data from which the presence of an alarm condition is detected. In addition sensor devices analyze sensor data received from other sensor devices that are in a peer to peer relationship with the corresponding sensor device to validate whether the indicated alarm condition is a valid alarm or a false alarm.
