How Titan Secure recovers vehicles
Titan Secure focuses on stopping theft before it succeeds. Its smart-engine unit can remotely cut the fuel supply, detects lock tampering and links to 24/7 emergency response. Rather than only tracking a stolen vehicle, the aim is to immobilise it so it cannot be driven far.
How Cartrack recovers vehicles
Cartrack units report their position over GPS and the cellular network. The 24/7 control room watches for alerts such as tampering, and recovery teams are sent out when a vehicle is reported stolen. Because Cartrack relies mainly on GPS/GSM, ask what backup is in place if a jammer is used.
