1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a processor, detections associated with a first entity, wherein at least one of the detections is indicative of being from a first mobile device carried by the first entity;

    determining, by the processor, a pattern of the detections associated with the first entity, wherein the pattern is based on a behavior;

    assigning, based on the pattern, a first threat level associated with the first entity;

    comparing the first threat level to a first threshold associated with a site in proximity of the first entity, wherein the first threshold is a high likelihood of instigating harmful act;

    determining that the first threat level reaches the first threshold;

    determining that a second mobile device in proximity of the first entity has an associated second threat level that does not reach the first threshold; and

    responsive to the determining that the first threat level reaches the first threshold and the second threat level does not reach the first threshold, providing instructions to send an alert message to the second mobile device in proximity of the first entity, wherein the alert message comprises a request for information about the first entity from the second mobile device.
