An asset is identified in a predefined area. The type of asset is identified through video or wireless tag identification. A security policy associated with the type of asset is obtained. Entries in an asset log are recorded based on a location of the asset, an individual handling the asset, and/or actions taken by an individual with respect to the asset based on the security policy. A real-time notification is sent when the location, the handling, and/or any of the actions warrant a notification based on the security policy.

Embodiments pertain to a storage system for securely storing a plurality of garment bags in a publicly accessible area, comprising: at least one frame structure, wherein the at least one frame structure comprises a plurality of item hanging hardware mechanisms for receiving items for storage, and a plurality of garment bags comprising receptacles that are non-removably coupled, in a suspending manner, from the frame structure, and fasteners for opening and closing the respective receptacles, wherein each one of the fasteners operably cooperates with a lock mechanism of the storage system for selectively securing the fastener in a closed position and for unsecuring the fastener for allowing the fastener to be set from the closed into an open position; an alarm system that is operably coupled with the plurality of receptacles and, when armed, provides an output responsive to detecting that the structural integrity of the receptacle is compromised; and an output module to indicate a user located in the publicly accessible area which one of the garment bags have an item stored therein and which not, to indicate to the user which of the plurality of item storage devices is available for storing items therein.

A security device system including portions configured to have a combined state and a separated state. In the combined state, circuitry is configured to have an armed state and a not-armed state, and to trigger an alarm during a breach of the armed state. Depending on the embodiment, at least one of the portions, and in some embodiments more than one of the portions, participate in the armed and not-armed states. In some embodiments, the security device system includes an alarm device portion, a cradle portion, and a stratum portion.

It is disclosed an anti-tampering assembly for the transportation and storage of a package, the anti-tampering assembly being configured to be associated with the package. the anti-tampering assembly comprises: a tampering detection unit comprising a RFID passive tag and a tampering track of a conductive material configured to be connected to said RFID tag upon dispatching the package so as to inhibit the operation of the RFID tag, wherein the tampering track is configured to be interrupted in case of tampering of the package; an actuating unit configured to detect the interruption of the tampering track in case of tampering of the package and, upon detection, actuate an alarm unit; and the alarm unit comprising a radio module configured to, upon actuation, transmit an alarm message over a long range wireless communication network.

A tamper detection apparatus includes a switch and a tamper detection circuit with a non-volatile memory in an industrial product enclosure. In response to the switch detecting a door or panel of an industrial product enclosure being open when an electronic component or system in the enclosure is unpowered, the tamper detection circuit stores a tamper event code in the non-volatile memory. After the electronic component or system is powered, a system processor obtains the tamper event code from the tamper detection circuit and refrains from operating a machine or process pending reset of the industrial product by a user.

A box wrap security device includes a key, a connecting piece and a lock. The key is connected with the connecting piece through a steel wire and the connecting piece is connected with the lock through the steel wire. The lock includes an upper shell and a lower shell. The upper shell and the lower shell are locked with each other. A knob is embedded in the upper shell. A wire spool is fixedly connected to a bottom of the knob, and an alerter is connected between the knob and the wire spool. A limiting pin is inserted into a top socket of the lower shell. A first spring is sleeved on an upper end of the limiting pin. An upper end of the first spring is supported on a bottom of the upper shell.

A security device system including portions configured to have a combined state and a separated state. In the combined state, circuitry is configured to have an armed state and a not-armed state, and to trigger an alarm during a breach of the armed state. Depending on the embodiment, at least one of the portions, and in some embodiments more than one of the portions, participate in the armed and not-armed states. In some embodiments, the security device system includes an alarm device portion, a cradle portion, and a stratum portion.

The present invention is a tamper-proof container, which provides secure storage of a valued artifact and optionally destroys the valued artifact if the container is compromised. The core components of the invention are an airtight container comprising a first shell and a second shell, which contains the valued artifact, a gas pressure sensor assembly, a lever assembly, a trigger assembly, a wrecker assembly, and an optional alarm assembly. A predetermined gas pressure is used as the key to protect the container. During the assembly of the container the internal pressure is set to the predetermined container pressure and the container is sealed. If compromised, the change in gas pressure is detected by the gas pressure sensor assembly, which triggers the trigger assembly via the lever assembly, and activates the wrecker assembly to destroy the artifact. Optionally, the trigger assembly activates the alarm assembly to alert the user.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to recoilers, merchandise security systems, and methods for displaying and protecting an article of merchandise from theft. In one example, the merchandise security system includes a sensor configured to be secured to the article of merchandise and a base for removably supporting the sensor and the item of merchandise thereon. The system also includes a recoiler operably coupled to the sensor. The recoiler includes a rotatable member defining a helical recess. The system further includes a cable configured to connect to the sensor and to be unwound from and wound on the rotatable member as the cable is extended and retracted. The cable is configured to be extended from the recoiler in response to the sensor being lifted off of the base, and the cable is configured to be retracted into the recoiler in response to the sensor being moved to a seated position on the base. The helical recess is configured to at least partially receive the cable therein as the cable is wound on the rotatable member.
