Rising Domestic Violence Incidents Represents Expanding Opportunity for EM Tech Innovator SuperCom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SPCB)
- Domestic violence worldwide is fostering a concerted response by criminal justice officials and legislators upset by the deadly fallout of offenders who violate court-ordered protective measures for victims
- Tennessee recently passed a statewide law establishing specific targets for electronic monitoring of offenders via GPS and communication with victims, creating clear and timely awareness of situations in which offenders are in proximity to victims
- Electronic monitoring technology innovator SuperCom Ltd. has developed a suite of hardware, connectivity, and software components designed to target the market for monitoring domestic violence offenders and alerting their victims to dangers
- SuperCom recently reported over $11 million in new revenue for the company from European clients, placed within three months
The severe consequences of domestic violence incidents are driving the monitoring of offenders’ whereabouts via electronic GPS-enabled technologies.
Tennessee enacted a law last month described as the first in the nation to codify measures statewide requiring electronic GPS monitoring (“EM”) for people arrested for stalking, aggravated stalking or especially aggravated stalking. The law also encompasses offenses related to assault, kidnapping, or rape, targeting a specific person, and allowing victims of such crimes to be notified through a phone app when offenders, in their cases, move close to their location.
“Those critical seconds of giving a victim the ability to know that someone is outside or near them puts them in a different space and gives them more tools”, said Alex Youn, a relative of a Tennessee mother-daughter duo killed in an incident that inspired passage of the law (https://nnw.fm/7aHOQ ).
EM solutions developer SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) is advancing its technological innovations as a means of combatting the rising incidence of domestic partner stalking and attacks, not only in the United States but around the world. “People have been trying to do electronic monitoring for over 30 years, but many of the times they ran into technological hurdles,” company President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi said during a Your Advantage Play podcast interview (https://nnw.fm/GNr9L ). “With every project, we’re able to be one step ahead of the curve.”
SuperCom’s PureSecurity suite of hardware, connectivity, and software components is emerging as a powerful tool for governments and private organization clients. The company recently celebrated $11 million in new European orders within three months (https://nnw.fm/Wmr9m ). SuperCom’s technology is primarily designed for offender monitoring, ensuring that individuals under legal restrictions are accurately tracked, while also being adaptable for related needs such as tracking Alzheimer’s patients prone to wandering. The company also offers identification solutions, such as electronic passports, biometric visas, driver licenses, and voter authentication capabilities. Moreover, the primary focus is on the criminal offender monitoring space. It is a niche sector with relatively few competitors, and SuperCom sees it as the sector with the greatest opportunities.
Statistics generated by the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office in Arizona indicate that, nationwide, people are physically abused by an intimate partner at a rate of 20 per minute, amounting to millions of incidents per year. The report indicates that about 100 fatalities in the state each year are due to domestic violence, including not only the partner targeted but Good Samaritan bystanders and first responders. The report also points to a 2017 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, estimating that almost 40% of people in Arizona had been subject to some form of domestic abuse (https://nnw.fm/M36Gc ).
Tennessee, where the landmark EM protection bill was passed into law last month, is the seventh-most deadly state for incidents of men attacking women, according to a domestic shelter executive. Thirteen other states have also begun using GPS tracking to limit the risks associated with domestic violence offenders, revealing the growing market for products such as SuperCom’s platform (https://nnw.fm/TzjTc ).
