Satellite Security Systems of North America, LLC (S³), involved in sales of in-vehicle tracking, recovery, and security, announced on June 4 the successful launch of its GlobalGuard™ technology throughout San Diego County, Calif. “We are proud and honored with the way this new technology is being viewed in Southern California and look forward to continuing to educate the public on the benefits of the ReFLEX™ technology over that of similar tracking systems using cellular as the means to communicate," said John Phillips, director and chief operating officer at Satellite Security Systems. "The GlobalGuard™ product we have introduced is intended for those corporations or individuals who understand that the current cellular infrastructure still leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to guaranteeing that your call for help or information will go through every time, the very first time. With the GlobalGuard™ system, we have focused on the need for protection and recovery of any asset, whether that is watching over your teenage child, personal or corporate vehicle, or any other device,” Phillips said. S³, based out of San Diego, chose the San Diego market as its launch pad because of the various test features the local terrain provided, the close proximity to the telecommunication industry as well as the border to Mexico, where S³ is actively testing and developing products as well, according to Phillips. “Distribution through our continually increasing network has been put in place to actively work to inform the public about the lack of true protection other systems in the marketplace usually offer," Phillips said. "With our 24-hour, 7-day a week, Monitoring and Support Center (MSC) as well as internet access for our clients, S³ ensures our clients are able to get the information or response they need when they need it. We are one of the few companies who are able to offer these two services together in the same package.” About GlobalGuard(TM) Through the use of S³’s GlobalGuard(TM) technology, users will have the ability to monitor, track (including via the Internet), analyze and control the movement of virtually any object, including ground vehicles, marine vessels, railway equipment and valuable objects in transit, according to Satellite Security Systems. The integration of a Global Positioning System and two-way communications make it possible for GlobalGuard(TM) owners to log onto S³’s Web site and view the mapped position of their mobile asset or obtain detailed information such as speed, direction of travel, longitude and latitude, and a mapped location with street names. In addition, GlobalGuard can remotely control functions or monitor assets as they are in transit. GlobalGuard owners can monitor their mobile asset via a secure Internet link, a two-way pager, an Internet enabled cellular phone or Palm Pilot (PDA), or by calling S3’s 24-hour Monitoring and Support Center, according to Satellite Security Systems. About Satellite Security Systems of North America, L.L.C. Satellite Security Systems (S3), a private company based in San Diego, Calif., is a security systems tracking and monitoring company. S³ was founded to provide security, asset location and monitoring not only for corporate and government needs but for those of the civilian world as well.
