Abstract: A package securing system operable to facilitate the ability for an individual expecting to receive a package to provide and control a secure environment for receiving the package wherein the individual can execute the security protocols remotely. The package securing system further includes a lock having a body, a shank with keeper operably secured thereto, a solenoid with piston, a scanner and a controller. The controller provides operation of the lock and is operably coupled to the Internet via a wireless communication protocol. The controller is communicably coupled to a software application wherein the software application provide an interface for operation of the package securing system. The lock is unlocked and locked utilizing a machine-readable dataset wherein the machine-readable dataset is associated with an expected package and communicated to the controller via the software application. A server is provided to execute portions of the operational method of the present invention.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to providing electronic locking systems. Using novel designs and network technology, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can provide a secure alternative to a cam lock or a lock box for storing items that may be left unattended, without the use of a physical key. For example, in certain embodiments, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can facilitate the locking and unlocking of a cam lock or a lock box by using a digital construct, an encryption system, and various native and/or third-party software components.

Abstract: Moto-controlled lock apparatus/mechanism that deploys locking pins to retain the shackle when the lock apparatus/mechanism is in the closed position. Generally, when the lock apparatus/mechanism is in the closed position, the locking pins are prevented from moving by a blocking cam. In various embodiments, the blocking cam is actuated by a motor that rotates the blocking cam, thereby forcing the locking pins into and holding the locking pins in compatibly-shaped cutouts in the shackle.
