    The Vulnerability of
    Traditional Tracking

    Clip-on trackers get removed. Wristbands get swapped. Heel-based devices are easily detected and cause mission-compromising discomfort.

    Wearer Intervention

    Existing solutions are easily removed by the wearer, nullifying personnel accountability and patient safety protocols.

    Operational Stigma

    Visible wristbands and clips are easily identified by adversaries, compromising personnel security in the field.

    Physical Constraint

    Heel-placed electronics cause gait issues and detectable footprints, leading to non-compliance and detection.

    Why Our Architecture Wins

    Arch-Area Placement

    The iTag sits in the arch, just below the waist. Invisible. Undetectable. Irremovable without shoe removal. Heel-based competitors cause significant discomfort.

    Berry Amendment Exempt

    Standalone electronics, not a textile garment. DFARS 225.7002-1 exempt. Integrate immediately—no domestic supply-chain rework required for DoD procurement.

    OPSEC-Compliant

    Encrypted data streams with role-based access controls. Supports on-prem or DoD-cloud hosting. Commander-configurable geofencing.

    • AES-256 Encryption
    • Role-Based Access
    • Remote Sanitization

    Crowdsourced Detection

    Crowdsourced smartphone detection network — over 1.5 billion devices detect and relay encrypted location. No SIM. No cellular plan. No carrier contract. $99/year monitoring dashboard with geofencing and automated headcount tools. Best suited for populated installations: bases, VA facilities, and checkpoints.

    Full-Foot Integration

    Arch placement ensures compatibility with any standard-issue or tactical footwear. One solution across your entire footwear supply chain.

    Mission Applications

    The Arch-Area Advantage

    The iTag holder is recessed into the bottom side of the insole in the arch and waist area, where there is natural dead space inside any shoe. This bottom-side embedding keeps the hardware invisible and irremovable without taking the shoe off, while the top side stays smooth against the foot for all-day comfort.
