GOST® (Global Ocean Security Technologies), a world leader in marine security, tracking, monitoring and video surveillance systems celebrating its 20th year in business, is proud to announce the release of the new GOST Argus.
Designed for larger vessels ranging from 50- to over 300-feet, the GOST Argus is the most customizable and powerful system ever released by GOST. It takes the award-winning product line to the next level with enhanced user control, next-generation frequency rolling codes, and significantly increased range.
"The GOST Argus represents our fifth-generation wireless security and monitoring product line since we pioneered this industry in 2006," said Brian Kane, President and CEO, GOST. "We approach our systems from a security-first perspective to document and generate response to all pertinent events aboard. This new line allows for sensor and user control with four times the range of previous generations to provides true protection through an isolated, UL-listed spectrum designed with a defensive approach, whether the owner is sleeping aboard or monitoring from afar."
The GOST Argus system features a new 7-inch wireless touchscreen and access control for up to 200 external or internal doors, hatches, tenders, and dock toys. It also monitors high water, smoke, and AC/DC voltages, allowing users to check statuses via multiple installed screens or the custom app. Users can program specific rules for different access points, implement access control, and create up to 10 partitions - essentially security systems within the system. This allows crew quarters, bedrooms, or even safes to be managed individually, offering owners unprecedented control and situational awareness.
The system uses both wireless and hardwired sensors, supported by an innovative digital architecture. With GOST's wide array of sensors, the system is fully customizable to meet any vessel's layout and any customer's priority. Additionally, the app provides push notifications and lets users send panic notices from their smartphones while ashore to arm the boat's Argus system.
