Abstract
Systems and methods for managing threats at target locations of networked subscriber devices. The system may include a server connected to a network such that the server manages threats at the target locations and at threat locations. Networked subscriber devices alert respective users when the respective target locations coincide with a given threat location. The server notifies the users of respective solutions to threats and respective solution providers.
Claims28
A method of operation for a threat management system having at least one network connectivity device and at least one application server, the method comprising:
- generating, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, at least one threat characteristic indicator;
- generating, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, at least one threat location indicator;
- responsive to the generating of one or more of the at least one threat characteristic indicator or the at least one threat location indicator, creating, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, at least one threat alert;
- responsive to the creating of the at least one threat alert, converting, by the at least one network connectivity device of the threat management system, the at least one threat alert to at least one threat alert signal;
- responsive to the at least one threat alert signal, generating, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, at least one list of threat solution providers offering at least one threat solution, the threat solution comprising at least one opportunity to engage in one or more of purchasing, renting, subscribing, or hiring one or more of the following:
- at least one alarm system, at least one alarm monitoring subscription, at least one camera system, at least one person tracking subscription or system, at least one security officer, at least one unarmed security officer, at least one armed security officer, at least one counter assault team, at least one anti-terrorism team, at least one security patrol, at least one armored car service, at least one vault, at least one body guard, at least one private investigator, at least one self-defense training lesson, at least one firearm training session, or at least one firearm;
- identifying, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, respective prioritization indicators of the threat solution providers, the respective prioritization indicators comprising one or more of the following:
- at least one user review of at least one threat solution provider or at least one popularity rating of at least one threat solution provider;
- responsive to the identifying of the respective prioritization indicators, prioritizing, by the at least one application server of the threat management system, the threat solution providers;
- responsive to the prioritizing of the threat solution providers, pushing the list of threat solution providers to at least one networked subscriber device external to the threat management system, thereby causing the at least one networked subscriber device to notify the at least one respective user of the at least one list of threat solution providers, the at least one respective user having at least one opportunity, after the threat has passed, to obtain a threat solution from at least one of the threat solution providers;
- and
- responsive to the at least one threat alert signal, pushing, by the at least one network connectivity device of the threat management system, the at least one threat alert signal to at least one networked subscriber device external to the threat management system, thereby causing the at least one networked subscriber device to:
- emit at least one humanly perceptible alarm that warns at least one respective user of the at least one networked subscriber device that at least one respective target location of the at least one networked subscriber device coincides with at least one threat location;
- and
- notify the at least one respective user of at least one threat characteristic.
A threat management system, comprising:
- at least one application server;
- at least one nontransitory computer-readable medium communicably coupled to the at least one application server, the at least one nontransitory computer-readable medium stores processor-executable instructions that specifically program the at least one application server to:
- generate at least one threat characteristic indicator;
- generate at least one threat location indicator;
- and
- responsive to the generation of one or more of the at least one threat characteristic indicator or the at least one threat location indicator, create at least one threat alert;
- and
- at least one network connectivity device communicably coupled to the at least one application server, the at least one network connectivity device:
- responsive to the creation of the at least one threat alert, converts the at least one threat alert to at least one threat alert signal;
- responsive to the creation of the at least one threat alert signal, generates at least one list of threat solution providers offering at least one threat solution, the threat solution comprising at least one opportunity to engage in one or more of purchasing, renting, subscribing, or hiring one or more of the following:
- at least one alarm system, at least one alarm monitoring subscription, at least one camera system, at least one person tracking subscription or system, at least one security officer, at least one unarmed security officer, at least one armed security officer, at least one counter assault team, at least one anti-terrorism team, at least one security patrol, at least one armored car service, at least one vault, at least one body guard, at least one private investigator, at least one self-defense training lesson, at least one firearm training session, or at least one firearm;
- responsive to the generating the at least one list of threat solution providers, identifies respective prioritization indicators of the threat solution providers, wherein the respective prioritization indicators comprise one or more of the following:
- at least one user review of at least one threat solution provider or at least one popularity rating of at least one threat solution provider;
- responsive to the identification of the respective prioritization indicators, prioritizes the threat solution providers and modifies the at least one threat alert signal to include the list of threat solution providers;
- responsive to the prioritizing of the threat solution providers, pushes the at least one list of threat solution providers to at least on networked subscriber device external to the threat management system, thereby causing the at least one networked subscriber device to notify the at least one respective user of the at least one list of threat solution providers, the at least one respective user having at least one opportunity to obtain a threat solution from at least one of the threat solution providers;
- and
- responsive to the at least one threat alert signal, pushes the at least one threat alert signal to at least one networked subscriber device external to the threat management system, thereby causing the at least one networked subscriber device to:
- emit at least one humanly perceptible alarm that warns at least one respective user of the at least one networked subscriber device that at least one respective target location of the at least one networked subscriber device coincides with at least one threat location;
- and
- notify the at least one respective user of at least one threat characteristic.
