Gabriel, a public surveillance product company linked to the CIA and Mossad has been slowly gaining traction in the United States for several years.
Backed by former leaders of the FBI, CIA, Shin Bet, and Mossad, the company has recently attracted substantial funding from an anonymous philanthropist aiming to install the product suite in every synagogue, school, and campus community in the country.
Gabriel’s suite centers around a “smart shield” panic button that offers two-way communication, live video feed, instant alerting, and gunshot detection.
The suite is meant to detect weapons, fights, and abnormal behavior among people in its vicinity and it includes smart cameras that use facial recognition and AI that automatically manages alert modes for minor to emergency situations.
The company is looking to expand to retail stores, warehouses, data centers, and banks, to further promote its abnormal behavior detection capabilities.
