Blind Tiger successfully deployed cellular managed access solutions to help secure correctional facilities by detecting and controlling illicit wireless devices without disrupting lawful communications. The deployments demonstrated selective policy control: approved devices could operate while non-vetted devices were denied connectivity under the security umbrella.
Corrections Reality
Contraband phones and wireless-enabled devices create persistent operational risk. At the same time, facilities must preserve communications for staff, leadership, first responders, and nearby communities. A workable solution must therefore be selective and compliance-oriented—rather than indiscriminately disruptive.
What Managed Access Enables
- Detect and classify wireless devices present in the Area of Interest
- Allow trusted/approved devices to operate normally
- Deny non-vetted devices without broad RF collateral effects
Privacy-Preserving Model
Blind Tiger’s approach avoids payload access and is designed to avoid collection or storage of personally identifiable information (PII). Enforcement is based on policy and observable network behavior to support compliant facility operations.
