Cell Detection Geofencing

Excerpt From Introduction to Wireless Threat Intelligence Webinar See CTO Dr. Brett Walkenhorst on Cell Detection—Geofencing The clip below demonstrates how the Bastille platform integrated with cameras to improve security. Dr. Brett Walkenhorst, CTO, describes a scenario in which a geofence area is set up to prevent cellular devices from entering critical locations. Using video camera footage, the platform recognizes when someone enters the geofence region while carrying a cell phone. The cameras receive commands to pan, tilt, and zoom, focusing on the area of interest, once the device enters the geofence, even if they are not directly visible inside the restricted room. Through this integration, comprehensive security measures are ensured, and occurrences within the limited region may be better understood. It also gives additional data for forensic investigation and any legal ramifications.

Key Takeaways

• Bastille can integrate with video cameras to add visual context to a wireless detection
• When a tracked cell phone enters a geofenced area, the system commands nearby cameras to pan, tilt, and zoom onto it
• This captures additional data even when cameras lacked a direct view of the restricted room
• The combined wireless and video record supports forensic analysis and potential legal action

So let me just give you a couple of examples of videos of how this all plays out. So this is an example of an integration with video cameras. Where something occurs that concerns us. We have this geofence area that we say, well, we don't want know cellular devices in there.

Maybe there's some some secret sauce in inside of this area. And this person's coming into the facility And we see her on the camera walking through the facility, and we can also see her cell phone making its way through the facility from the entrance up towards this geofence.

Now these two cameras don't have visibility on this room, but once this device enters the geofence, we're gonna send a command to these cameras to pan tilt and zoom, to focus in on that area of interest so that we now have additional data that we can use maybe this helps with forensic analysis.

Maybe there is legal implications here, but but by capturing that data, maybe maybe we take, more comprehensive action and we we certainly have the data to know what actually happened in that area.
