GlobalTrak Kratos
GlobalTrak Kratos global cellular-enabled electronic bolt seal sets a standard for cargo security.
Co-developed with the world’s largest seal company, Tyden-Brooks, Kratos C-TPAT compliant electronic barrier seal features enhanced security and visibility. Using Kratos is as simple as installing a standard physical bolt seal. Fully compliant with ISO Standard 17712, Kratos is a flexible cargo tracking, security, and condition monitoring device that enables asset positioning through GSM cell, ZigBee, and assisted GPS.
The Kratos housing can be reused; the bolt and locking cap provide a secure truck or container lock, and reliably detect cut or removal in real-time. An optional bolt with a security padlock version is available for repeated use. The Kratos battery is recharged through the bolt seal cavity; the device remains completely sealed. Kratos uses the GlobalTrak Information Management Bureau in conjunction with all communication methods to provide a robust and versatile asset monitoring solution providing security; supply chain automation; management overview via dashboards; precise measurement against performance metrics and KPIs; and the ability to detect and correct supply chain anomalies in real-time. Kratos supports a secured Authorized Agent Chain-of-Custody scheme similar to Registered mail.

Embedded Tracking Mode and Standard Tracking
Kratos can also be used in an embedded tracking mode where the device is placed inside the container, truck, or even inside the cargo itself. In this mode a “dummy bolt” is placed into the device simply to activate the unit. Because of the Kratos small size and high performance, it is well suited for tracking applications of this nature. Kratos can also be used as a standard tracking device when mounted on a truck, container, or any other asset through a variety of mounting methods. It is ideal for high performance monitoring, applications, sensor networks, and a variety of other uses.
