Abstract: A real-time automated data security system protects both data and devices from loss, theft, and unauthorized access or activity. A miniature active RFID circuit is embodied in tags, area tags, controllers, USB sticks and a universal interface software for computers (i.e., Java), smart phones, and gateway boxes written to interface with the system. These devices are customizable and can link in arrays to cover large areas, use sensors, and scale up in module configurations to meet any need. The system is independent of electricity, GPS, satellites, the Internet, other software, and IT personnel. Its novel software, inside the tags, area tags and controllers is inaccessible and cannot be copied. Wireless transmissions are encrypted to military grade levels and packets are never repeated, making it unhackable, even by brute force attack. A unique battery-conserving protocol ensures good range and long battery life.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a miniaturized apparatus to locate, track, recognize and control objects using miniature RF circuits that are programmed as an active tag or as one of several embodiments of a controller, including one small enough to be incorporated into a personal object, like a ring. In its simplest embodiment, a portable or wearable controller communicates wirelessly with a tag secured to a surface, analogously to a car remote—push button, receive a signal from tag or back at the controller, to locate tagged object. In more complex forms, the tag can be integrated into objects or connected to a network. One controller can manage a plurality of tags.
