Abstract

A system and means of implementing and providing a virtual perimeter enabled with interactive countermeasures to mitigate accessibility of an area or object and includes at least one sensor that establishes an electronic virtual border from at least one point to define a space, digital detection electronics for detecting the presence of an individual, animal or object encroaching the virtual border and at least one countermeasure that impedes or thwarts the movement or actions of the detected individual, animal or object. The system provides for the data collection, authorization, and deploying of countermeasures and the reporting and storage of state for an electronic virtual or electronic safe that is created as a protected space within the digital domain and can be represented within any physical or virtual location wherein the virtual safe is digitally enabled to detect the presence of a human through impedance, optical, mechanical, chemical, electronical or acoustic measurements, enables a deterrent when the presence of a person is detected, disables the deterrent if it determines the person is white listed based on facial recognition, gate analysis or voice recognition techno…
