Under the contract, LCA will provide its full suite of electronic monitoring services, which includes electronic monitoring for house arrest, alcohol monitoring, and full GPS offender tracking. The programs will utilize SuperCom's proprietary PureSecurity Electronic Surveillance platform for tracking and monitoring offenders.

"We are excited to expand our long-time partnership with the Marin County Probation Department and integrate SuperCom's electronic monitoring and tracking platform in to our offering," commented Ms. Linda Connelly, Founder and President of LCA.
