TrackTik Software, the cloud-based security workforce management solution based in Montreal, Quebec, recently announced the issuance of Canadian Patent 2799170, which relates to the System and Method for Monitoring an Area Using NFC Tags.
Simon Ferragne, TrackTik founder and CEO, originally filed the patent 8 years ago in 2012—a time when using smartphones by security personnel was rare. The technology was disruptive and innovative and this patent is now being used by security guards around the world, so its recent issuance validates that tremendous achievement.
