Abstract: Security devices and methods for regulating access to an item secured within the security device are provided. In an example, the method includes: determining if a requesting user submitting a request to access the item is an authorized user; and in response to determining the requesting user is the authorized user, the method further includes one or more actions of: triggering a predefined wait period; allowing the requesting user access to the item and notifying at least one of a primary user, a designated user, or a third party service; or notifying the at least one of the primary user, the designated user, or the third party service that the requesting user is requesting access to the item, and receiving an approval or a denial of access to the item to the requesting user from at least one of the primary user, the designated user, or the third party service.

Abstract: Security holsters and methods for securing a firearm are provided. In one example, the security holster includes: a body including a cavity for receiving the firearm; a locking mechanism extending at least partially into the cavity for selectively securing at least a portion of the firearm within the cavity; an access authentication assembly configured to receive/provide authentication data for determining if a requesting user requesting access to the firearm is an authorized user; a device condition sensor configured to provide device condition data associated with at least one of the security holster and an environment in proximity to the security holster; and a computing device operably coupled to the locking mechanism, the access authentication assembly, and the device condition sensor, and configured to regulate the security holster between a locked configuration where access to the firearm is denied and an unlocked configuration where the firearm is accessible.

Abstract: A locking device includes a housing and a locking mechanism mounted within the housing. A locking bolt is operatively connected to the locking mechanism such that the locking bolt is moveable from an unlocked position to a locked position. An insert is sized to be removably received within an insert aperture of the housing. The insert includes a locking bolt hole sized to receive the locking bolt. The insert also includes a trigger guard cavity, sized to receive a trigger guard of a firearm. The insert also includes an insert contoured surface shaped to conform to a frame surface of the firearm. When the insert is disposed within the insert aperture and the locking bolt is in the locked position, the locking bolt extends through the locking bolt hole and at least partially through the trigger guard, and the insert contoured surface engages the frame surface, to secure the firearm.
