A modular security apparatus may be configured with a controller module and one or more fastener modules. A first fastener module may secure a portable item with, for example, one or more cables forming loops external to a housing of the module and retained by a one-way locking mechanism disposed within the housing. A second fastener module may anchor the modular security apparatus to an anchor surface or other fixed object. The controller module may be releasably attached to the first and second module. The controller module may include a controller configured to receive and verify an electronic signal. Upon verifying the electronic signal, the controller may actuate one or more mechanisms to release the portable item, release the modular security apparatus from the anchor surface, and/or to allow disassembly of the modules. In some implementations, the controller module may be integrated with the first and/or second module.

A retention patio leash for outdoor furniture includes a housing having a first end and an opposite second end. The housing includes a first collar disposed at the first end and a second collar disposed at the second end. The first and second collars defining a through opening configured to receive at least a portion of the outdoor furniture. An intermediate disc body is disposed between the first collar and the second collar, the intermediate disc body defining an internal cavity and a plurality of slots defined on a sidewall. A retention system is supported within the intermediate disc body and includes one or more retractable straps and a fastener coupled to a free end of each of the one or more retractable straps. The fastener configured to releasably attach to other outdoor furniture.

An enhanced spider wrap security device is described. This device integrates a wrapping cable section, a top cap, and a bottom cap. The cable wraps around products, preventing removal. The integrated cable lock, located in the bottom cap, secures the spider wrap to fixtures or other spider wraps. The locking mechanism includes a magnetic component and requires a special tool, such as a key, for unlocking. The design allows flexibility in positioning the cable lock on either the top or bottom cap.

An anti-theft device for securing an article of merchandise against unauthorized removal from a display counter. The anti-theft device includes a plurality of arms slidingly disposed within the housing. Grips are disposed on proximal ends of the arms and are configured to receive and secure edges of an article of merchandise. A locking mechanism is disposed within the housing of the anti-theft device. The locking mechanism involves an actuator that presses a locking component to engage at least one of the arms. The arms have a first set of teeth disposed thereon, such that, when the locking component engages at least one of the arms, the first set of teeth interlocks with a second set of teeth. The arms cannot slide relative to the housing while the first set of teeth and the second set of teeth remain interlocked.

A cable lock with a locator includes a disposable part and a recyclable part. The disposable prat includes a metal cable and a first lock body. The recyclable part includes a second lock body. The first lock body is provided with an RFID device. The second lock body is provided with a locator. The first lock body and the second lock body can be integrated into one piece by a detachable structure. The present application has the beneficial effects that the locator can realize the locating function of the cable lock, so as to realize the real-time locating function of the locked container. On this basis, the locator is recycled, and the locating function can be realized with decreased use cost as much as possible.

A locator for a cable lock includes a lock body part and a locator, wherein the lock body part is a portion of the cable lock. There are beneficial effects due to the solution that the locator can be recycled and reused. A new disposable RFID component can be assembled with a recyclable locator with a relatively high cost from an unlocked cable lock, so as to form a new cable lock to maintain the locating function with increasing cost as less as possible.

An electrical switch with a conductive bridge, a first wire configured to provide continuity with the conductive bridge, and a biasing member connected to the first wire. The biasing member provides a threshold reaction force to maintain continuity between the first wire and the conductive bridge. The switch further includes a housing that directs tensile forces acting upon the first wire to oppose a reaction force of the biasing member. When a tensile force acting on the first wire exceeds a threshold reaction force of the biasing member continuity between the first wire and the conductive bridge is broken.

A system and method for tamper detection in wired tracking devices uses an identification mechanism embedded in a connecting cable, displaced from the tracking device. An asset tracking device attached to a trailer periodically tests for presence of the identification mechanism at the opposite end of a connecting cable. Identification mechanisms can embed in cable wiring or use discrete components. A missing identification mechanism indicates cable tampering. By implementing the identification mechanism to the far end of the cable, intentional cable cuts can be distinguished from routine power loss. Rapid notification of tampering events allows timely tracking device recovery and repair. Cost-effective deployment uses existing tracking device hardware and firmware functionality, only modifying cable assembly. Broad applicability ranges from vehicles and trailers to remote containers and assets. Theft prevention and detection capabilities are enhanced without added hardware expenses.
