Virtual safe enabled with countermeasures to mitigate access of controlled devices or substances

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 technology, escalates the deterrent if the person is not authorized as they encroach the space to impede or thwart the threat and enables a shock wave or pulse when a protected item is approached or touched. The system is a contextually aware system that based on environment or location can change its performance, countermeasures and, or intensity of countermeasures and has multiple modalities in which countermeasures are activated.
