A computer-implemented method includes detecting, by operation of video analytics, an object within a portion of initial video captured by a security camera. The security camera is within and forms a part of a security system site. The computer-implemented method also includes transmitting, to at least one computing device that is remote from the security system site, a request that includes video data. The request relates to the object and the initial video. A response is received from the at least one computing device. The response includes computer readable instructions, retrieved from storage remote from the security system site, for at least one temporary analytic. The at least one temporary analytic is initiated to act upon the initial video or subsequent video captured by the security camera.
