B. Verification shall be by real-time audio or video surveillance provided by the alarm system and reviewed by the alarm system monitoring company, or by a third-party report from the alarm site sent to the alarm system monitoring company, that positively verifies evidence of a crime or an attempted crime at the alarm site.

C. The alarm system monitoring company shall retain evidence of the verification for one year from the alarm and shall provide copies of such evidence to the alarm administrator upon request.
