ZeroEyes Launches Harborwatch to Bolster School Security Financing

The association functions as an affiliated entity for districts already utilizing ZeroEyes’ visual firearm detection technology. By integrating risk financing with proactive security measures, the program aims to close the gap between initial threat detection and the logistical challenges that follow a campus emergency. Beyond immediate safety, Harborwatch offers members access to crisis communications, counseling services, and recovery tools to mitigate long-term financial strain caused by operational disruptions and absenteeism.

ZeroEyes’ core platform relies on human-verified AI, where U.S. military and law enforcement veterans monitor camera feeds through the company's operations center. When a firearm is identified, the system transmits location data and threat specifics to authorities in seconds. Harborwatch builds on this by addressing the second-order financial impacts of such events, such as transportation delays and emergency security costs, which often exceed the scope of traditional school budgets. CEO Mike Lahiff noted that the initiative reflects a shift toward comprehensive threat management, combining real-time detection with structured recovery support to create more resilient learning environments.
