Infrastructure Security
Stop infrastructure crime before the copper leaves site. Real-time tamper detection, integrated armed response.
What's broken today.
Cable theft costs South Africa over R2.5 billion a year. Substations, traffic lights, telecom huts and lighting cabinets are stripped at night. By the time the patrol vehicle arrives, the perpetrators are gone and so is the copper.
How LumaTrack solves it.
LumaTrack tamper sensors fire on tilt, door-open, panel-vibration and cable-cut events. Verified alerts are simultaneously routed to your control room and armed response within 90 seconds — with GPS coordinates, type of event, and live photo evidence where cameras are integrated.
What you get.
Tamper sensors
Tilt, vibration, door-open and cable continuity on every protected asset.
Armed response
Direct dispatch to our partner armed response units, nationally.
Camera integration
ONVIF and proprietary IP cameras integrated for visual verification.
Resilient comms
Dual-path GSM + LoRa so jamming alone does not silence the alarm.
Chain-of-custody
Tamper-evident incident logs admissible for prosecution.
Pattern analytics
Identify hot-spots, repeat offenders and high-risk windows.
The tamper-event chain — sensor trip to portal routing.
Every tamper signal passes through the same edge classifier. It cross-checks concurrent sensors, compares against the authorised-visit window, and tags an event as Critical, Warning or Info before the real-time secure bus routes it to the relevant portals. The worked examples show exactly how the classifier reasons — so you know an alert means action, not noise.
Cable theft response
From silent alert to suspects in custody.
When a LumaTrack node detects a cable cut or manhole tamper, the GPS-tagged alert is dispatched simultaneously to the control room and the nearest Nash Secure response unit. Officers arrive on scene with the exact pin, the time of the event and the type of tamper already on their mobile terminal — turning what used to be a forensic exercise into an interception. The image below is from a live operation on the M3, where a coordinated response intercepted suspects mid-extraction with the stolen cable still on site.
The detail engineers ask for.
