An anti-theft device for securing an article of merchandise against unauthorized removal from a display counter. A clip securely holds the article of merchandise. The clip has a hook on a bottom surface thereof. A base has an aperture configured to receive the hook. When the hook is inserted into the base through the opening, the clip is shifted relative to the base such that the point of the hook resides underneath a top plate of the base. A locking member immobilizes the clip within the base preventing the hook from becoming realigned with the base. A key is used to retract the locking member to release the clip from the base.

A security tag holder and a security tag assembly is provided. The security tag holder may have a holder body that defines a security tag holding cavity. First and second band retaining fingers may attached to the holder body on an opposite sides of the security tag holding cavity. The fingers are used to secure the holder to a retention band. The security tag holder may have a contact lever that cooperates with an alarm button of a security tag when the security tag assembly is mounted to a product.

A first device may be implemented within a package that is for transporting a second device requiring activation. The first device may determine whether the package has been opened based on whether a trigger condition has been satisfied. The trigger condition may be satisfied when a value identifying an amount of an electrical property of a conductive structure sealing the package satisfies a first threshold value or when a value identifying an amount of a measurable property associated with the package satisfies a second threshold value. The first device may provide, to a server, a request to activate the second device based on determining that the package has been opened. The request may cause the server to initiate an activation procedure and to activate the second device if the activation procedure succeeds.

A merchandise security device configured for use with an electronic key for locking and/or unlocking a lock mechanism is provided. The merchandise security device may include a housing operably coupled with a cable, wherein the cable is configured to be extended and retracted relative to the housing and to at least partially surround an item of merchandise. The security device may also include a lock mechanism configured to releasably secure the cable relative to the housing for locking the cable about the item of merchandise. In addition, the lock mechanism is configured to receive electrical power for unlocking the lock mechanism so that the housing and the cable may be removed from the item of merchandise.

A keyed or combination cable lock for securing one or more cables or a lock shackle is presented. The lock secures one or both ends of a single cable or one end each of two separate cables when locked. Alternatively, the lock can secure one or both ends of a lock shackle. When the lock is unlocked, the secured ends can be removed from the lock by activation of a control knob. The lock is also able to a secure a section of a single slidable cable or two sections of a single slidable cable so that the lock can be slid down the slidable cable[s] in first direction when the lock is locked or unlocked, but the lock can be slid down the slidable cable[s] in the opposite direction only when the lock is unlocked and a control knob is activated.

A reusable system for securing packaging and providing tamper evidence is disclosed. The system may comprise a housing for securing an opening of the packaging, an access controller operably engaged to the housing and a security member. The housing may comprise a lock, wherein release of the lock may enable opening of the packaging. The access controller may be configured to operably move relative to the housing to assume positions comprising an active position and an inactive position. In the active position, the lock is prevented from being released thereby preventing the opening of the packaging. In the inactive position, the lock is releasable thereby enabling the opening of the packaging. The movement of the access controller from the active position to the inactive position causes change in the security member, wherein the change is capable of detecting tampering.

A security device and its associate base are provided. The base includes a cable having a free end which is routed through the base and around an item of retail merchandise. When tension is applied to the cable, the base actuates a depressible button of an anti-theft component of the security device mounted to the base.

A security tag holder and a security tag assembly is provided. The security tag holder may have a holder body that defines a security tag holding cavity. First and second band retaining fingers may attached to the holder body on an opposite sides of the security tag holding cavity. The fingers are used to secure the holder to a retention band. The security tag holder may have a contact lever that cooperates with an alarm button of a security tag when the security tag assembly is mounted to a product.

A box edge security device, for a merchandise box that includes having adjacent structural portions connected together along an edge, includes an edge seal and a tag assembly. The edge seal is adapted to be attached around an edge of a merchandise box, the merchandise box having a first structural portion and a second structural portion that are connected to one another along the edge, such that a first portion of the edge seal is disposed against the first structural portion of the merchandise box and a second portion of the edge seal is disposed against the second structural portion of the merchandise box. The tag assembly interlocks with the edge seal and includes an electronics assembly, contained within a housing, that forms at least part of an alarm system. The electronics assembly may include an electronic article surveillance (EAS) tag.
