New Threats of Violence at Federal, State and Local Government Facilities Prompt Need for Proven Technology Solutions
2021年1月21日 - 10:00PM
ShotSpotter, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSTI), a leader in precision
policing solutions that enable law enforcement to more effectively
respond to, investigate and deter crime, today launched a new
program to help protect public officials and visitors to federal,
state and local government campuses given the new threats that have
emerged due to the recent assault on the U.S. Capitol and the
heightened potential for violent armed conflict at government
facilities across the country.
After the unprecedented violent events of January 6 in
Washington D.C., the FBI and other intelligence sources have warned
law enforcement agencies across the U.S. about potential threats to
state capitols, city halls and other government buildings. “In
response to these new threats, law enforcement is beefing up
security at government buildings,” said Clark Ervin, former
Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security. “However, the government can’t maintain this
heightened level of security across all locations after the high
visibility events are over. That’s where solutions like acoustic
gunshot detection can be better utilized to provide layered
protection 24x7 throughout the year.”
To address this nationwide threat, ShotSpotter is launching a
new program today based on its SecureCampus® acoustic gunshot
detection solution. SecureCampus leverages the same technology used
in ShotSpotter Respond™, ShotSpotter’s award-winning acoustic
gunshot detection solution for cities that is used in over 100 U.S.
jurisdictions. ShotSpotter has already been protecting a number of
University of California campuses and HBCUs (Historically Black
Colleges and Universities) with SecureCampus. The solution is now
being promoted to government facilities and campuses and their
surrounding areas that need protection from the threat of outdoor
gunfire. The new program includes dedicated security experts to
customize solutions for maximum impact, simplified pricing bundles
to make quotations faster, and professional services to integrate
acoustic gunshot detection into existing video surveillance and
access-control security infrastructure.
“We appear to be entering a new phase of increased domestic
threats and ShotSpotter is here to help provide an important
acoustic gunshot detection element to any layered security strategy
enabling first responders to more quickly mitigate the threat and
provide aid to victims,” said Ralph A. Clark, President and CEO of
ShotSpotter. “With the launch of our new program for ShotSpotter’s
SecureCampus, we can better protect high value government campuses
and capitol locations along with the people who work, visit and
congregate in the outdoor spaces around these locations.”
SecureCampus ensures private security and local law enforcement
are alerted to gunshot incidents within seconds. Acoustic sensors
placed high on surrounding buildings listen for loud, impulsive
sounds that could be gunshots. Using a combination of machine
learning and human review, incidents are quickly verified and
alerts are sent to smartphones and computers including a precise
location of the incident, number of rounds fired, and tactical
information such as number of shooters or the use of automatic or
high-capacity weapons. Security and law enforcement can use the
alerts to quickly mobilize and safely eliminate the threat. A
number of related technologies from other providers, such as
cameras and access controls, can also be integrated to provide
additional intelligence and security in real time.
