How Does Coyote Secure Work?

Your car is parked. You're inside. Your vehicle is moving, but you didn't start it. Within minutes, you're in contact with a dedicated response team, and law enforcement has your vehicle's live location. Here's exactly how Coyote Secure makes that possible.

A discreet device, permanently connected

At the heart of Coyote Secure is a compact GPS tracking device, professionally installed in your vehicle. It operates silently in the background — no screen, no interaction required — drawing on a combination of GPS, GSM, and accelerometer technology to monitor your vehicle around the clock.

The device is designed to be discreet. Its location within the vehicle is known only to you and the installation team, which significantly reduces the risk of thieves disabling it before driving away.

Real-time alerts the moment something's wrong

Coyote Secure detects unauthorised movement automatically. The moment your vehicle moves without being disarmed, you receive an immediate alert on your smartphone via the dedicated app. No delay, no polling — a live notification.

From the app, you can see your vehicle's exact position in real time, track its movement on a map, and decide how to respond. If you've simply forgotten you lent the car to someone, you can stand down in seconds. If it's a theft, you escalate immediately.

A dedicated response team on your side

This is where Coyote Secure differs from a standalone GPS tracker. Behind the technology is a 24/7 monitoring and response centre staffed by trained operators. Once you confirm a theft, they take over coordination — communicating your vehicle's live position directly to law enforcement, following the vehicle's movement in real time, and staying on the line until recovery is underway.

You don't have to navigate a police switchboard in a moment of stress. The response team does it for you.

Direct collaboration with law enforcement

Coyote has established working relationships with police forces to ensure stolen vehicle data is acted on quickly. Live GPS coordinates, direction of travel, and speed data are transmitted directly, giving officers the best possible chance of intercepting the vehicle before it reaches a chop shop or crosses a border.

In a country where over 70% of vehicle thefts go unsolved without tracking assistance, this direct line to law enforcement is what turns a statistic into a recovery.

What about keyless theft?

Modern relay attacks happen in seconds — a thief amplifies your key fob signal from inside your home, unlocks the car, and drives away before you've noticed anything. Coyote Secure is designed with exactly this scenario in mind.

Because the system is independent of your vehicle's own keyless entry, it cannot be bypassed the same way. The tracking device continues to operate and transmit even after the vehicle has been started without authorisation — and even if the thief attempts to block the GPS signal, the system's redundant connectivity helps maintain tracking.
