Deep Sentinel announces crime-deterrent solution suite for business owners

Deep Sentinel today announced the launch of FlashBang, the new security product for businesses that experience high volumes of criminal activity and need an extra layer of protection. FlashBang offers impactful deterrent capabilities targeted to affect criminal actors in real time and includes smoke bombs, pepper sprays, and ear-piercing sirens.

According to a recent survey, 85% of businesses experience theft each year. More than half of the survey participants also reported that the frequency of theft either increased or stayed the same in 2023 compared to 2022. Regular threats to businesses lead to financial, reputational, and psychological damage.

"We have had multiple break-ins over the years prior to Deep Sentinel," said Sam Singh of Harry's Liquor in Oakland, CA. "I've taken measures, and my business is now being protected by Deep Sentinel's technology and professional guards, who respond to attacks within seconds. However, the criminals in this area have become more brazen, and even with Deep Sentinel providing real-time protection, I need a more persuasive solution. FlashBang is a step further to protect my store and customers from persistent and aggressive intruders." 

Combined with Deep Sentinel's Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) camera-based security system, FlashBang offers its customers an effective solution when criminals don't respond to other measures, like verbal warnings. If a situation like this occurs, Deep Sentinel's guards will deploy FlashBang to stop an intruder in their tracks. One FlashBang device can be installed per camera, providing the necessary level of coverage for each property.

"Intruders are increasingly aggressive and more savvy to current security systems that don't have what it takes to stop them," commented David Selinger, founder and CEO of Deep Sentinel. "FlashBang is the first effective countermeasure. Break-ins are a major problem for businesses across the United States, and people need more than a warning to stop a criminal from harming their businesses, staff, and customers."
