I have yet to implement an open source security system, but I've been looking into it so I'll share some notes (edited)

There's Zoneminder (GPL license), that seems to work if you're not tryna do anything fancy and is sometimes criticized as clunky and cpu intensive https://zoneminder.com/ For fancier stuff (MIT license) this Frigate NVR works with Home Assistant https://frigate.video/ People do build security systems using raspberry pis, such as described here: https://www.nabto.com/build-raspberry-pi-security-camera/ Wanna share more details about what you want for your system?
A full-featured, open source, state-of-the-art video surveillance software system.
NVR with realtime local object detection for IP cameras
Discover how you can build and configure a Raspberry Pi security camera to practice your programming skills or enhance your home security system in four steps.

other than video surveillance, a little Lo-Ra sensor motion sensor mesh network could be useful, also for smart outdoor lightning 🙂 (edited)
