Threat Extinguisher, a Columbus, Ohio based innovator of a patented, innovative, non-lethal active shooter violence solution, has partnered with Paul Boucherle CPP CSC, founder of Matterhorn Consulting, LLC, to continue guiding their growth. Sam Fasone shared their core mission, "Our passion is saving lives in situations of extreme violence by providing an effective means of communication and defensive solution to the average person during highly stressful events.

We have implemented our solution over the last 3 years with leaders looking for a new, proactive and innovative solution that can easily be added to existing security measures."

Lifesaving technology

Paul Boucherle is a security hall of fame inductee, thought leader, writer, technology innovator, education advisory member and WPV mitigation advocate consultant in the security industry for 42 years. "I have helped technology solution providers, system integrators and end-users grow our industry my entire career, and this tool is a game-changer for the increasing threat of workplace violence. It offers an effective solution to the crucial first 5-minute response of an active shooter scenario to allow people to protect and quickly communicate to security first responders."

Threat Extinguisher has installed their solution in schools, churches and corporate sites over the last 3 years, and is now prepared to engage select strategic partners to make this non-lethal and lifesaving technology available to the mainstay of security tools for security professionals.

Wireless communication

"Matterhorn Consulting has worked with us to help guide our early business development and new technology launch into the security industry for the last 19 months. This relationship has helped us prepare for our next phase of growth," according to Sam Fasone, CEO of Threat Extinguisher.

The Threat Extinguisher product was recognised as a Top 30 New Technology in Security Sales and Integration magazine in December of 2018. The product is a long-range, military-grade pepper spray gel canister that operates like a conventional fire extinguisher, and automatically communicates through wireless communication to designated security personnel, monitoring companies, and first responders. It has commercial, industrial and residential applications, while potentially driving RMR growth opportunities.
