摘要

A security system and method for the limited monitoring of visitors to a country or territory has an input component such as a keyboard or electronic reader configured for receiving information pertaining to a visitor's stay in a country or territory. The information includes the scheduled departure of the visitor. A controller communicates with the input component, and a database communicates with the controller for storing the information pertaining to the visitor's stay. The controller is configured for polling the database to determine if the visitor has departed as scheduled, and for sending an alert if the visitor has not left as scheduled.
