The infrastructure protecting your city is already on the pole outside. Today, Ubicquia announced the acquisition of Databuoy Corporation — the developer of Shotpoint®, the multi-threat detection platform trusted by cities, utilities, airports, and school systems across the country. What changes for our customers: the same streetlight infrastructure you already rely on can now detect gunfire, locate drones, and deliver real-time alerts to first responders — in under two seconds. No new poles. No separate networks.
One platform, every threat. The Shotpoint® sensor network adds indoor, outdoor, and vertical gunshot detection alongside drone detection and Geofob® mobile panic buttons — all integrated into the KWIC® application, which connects directly with 911 platforms and real-time crime centers. For utilities, this acquisition arrives at a critical moment. Executive Order 14421, signed in August 2026, declared a national emergency related to vulnerabilities in the U.S. bulk-power system. Ubicquia can now offer utilities comprehensive coverage — grid monitoring and physical security detection — from a single provider.
This is what intelligent infrastructure looks like. We're proud to welcome the Databuoy team to Ubicquia. Contact [email protected] now.
