Abstract
A method and system for Proactive Loss Prevention (PLP) System in venue and retail using wireless-based technology. Physical security measures are the first line of defense for protecting assets in any venue and retail spaces. These systems (e.g. Electronic Article Surveillance systems) are widely deployed in retail spaces. However, retail theft is still estimated at a multibillion dollar level on an annual basis in the US alone. This invention augments existing physical security systems to enable a proactive approach for suspect identification and subsequent presence alerting using a wireless local area network (WLAN) based system.
