The solution, which is comprised of a proprietary secure smartphone with an optional lightweight and waterproof ankle-bracelet, is designed to assist government efforts in combating the spread of the virus through people location tracking and stay-at-home compliance rules being implemented around the globe.

SuperCom has a demonstrated commitment to secured boundaries projects which have been used to successfully identify, monitor and validate millions of people in over 30 countries across the globe in North America, Europe, Asia and South America.
"We are facing unprecedented demand. Whether its for Coronavirus home quarantine tracking or for electronic offender tracking due to the immediate release of thousands of prisoners, the COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly shifted the supply-demand balance in our industry. Although we are saddened by the enormous impact this pandemic has on our global community, we are proud to have an opportunity to help. We are facing quite a challenge. The sheer quantities of units in discussion, for numerous countries in parallel, and with tight timelines, is higher than we have seen before or could have planned for. We are looking for ways to manufacture high quantities of units in a short time frame while maintaining the quality and excellence of our products. Given the proprietary architecture of our solutions and supply chain, we believe we are uniquely positioned to respond relatively well to this demand," commented Arie Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom.
"Tracking locations of individuals accurately and securely is difficult. It takes years of experience and significant investment to master, especially when you're looking for a solution to function almost anywhere in the world. We have struck a compassionate balance between citizen comfort and convenience while providing government agencies with the safety and security features they need to confidently monitor those with location restrictions such as home containment. Our technology is scalable, designed for rapid deployment, and highly configurable for multiple risk levels and containment models. It has been deployed across the globe and proven successful in different environments and infrastructures," concluded Arie Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom.
