Critical Accounting

The following discussions

are based upon our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles

generally accepted in the United States.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial

statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and

liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of

revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include,

but are not limited to, assumptions used to calculate derivative liabilities, revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes

to be reasonable under the circumstances.

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances,

facts and experience.

Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known.

Actual results could differ from those

results could differ from those estimates.

Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in

accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets.

accounting standard requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that

the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount

of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.

If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its

estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair

value of the asset.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets established

in connection with business combinations consist of the tradename.

The impairment test for identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets

consists of a comparison of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value.

If the carrying value exceeds its

fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible

assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other .

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price

of an entity over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles

with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value

of an asset has decreased below its carrying value.

This guidance simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2

of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation.

The quantitative impairment test calculates

any goodwill impairment as the difference between the carrying amount of a reporting unit and its fair value, but not to exceed the carrying

amount of goodwill.

It is our practice, at a minimum, to perform a qualitative or quantitative goodwill impairment test in the fourth

quarter every year.

but not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.

It is our practice, at a minimum, to perform a qualitative or quantitative goodwill

impairment test in the fourth quarter every year.

The Company has one reporting unit it evaluates during its impairment test.

In determining the fair value of the reporting

unit, management estimated the price that would be received to sell the reporting unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market

participants at the measurement date.

This includes reviewing market comparables such as revenue multipliers and assigning certain assets

and liabilities to the reporting units, such as the respective working capital deficits of each entity and debt obligations that would

need to be assumed by a market participant buyer in an orderly transaction.

The Company calculated the carrying amounts of the reporting

unit by utilizing the entities’ assets and liabilities at December 31, 2023, including the carrying value of the identifiable intangible

assets and goodwill assigned to the respective reporting unit.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are generated primarily

from the sale of our services, which consist primarily of advanced technology solutions for integrated communications and security systems,

as well as habitat management.

The Company’s sales of products are primarily generated from our TJM subsidiaries.

Sales of products

and services are separate from one another.

At contract inception, we assess the goods and services promised in the contract with customers

and identify a performance obligation for each.

To determine the performance obligation, we consider all products and services promised

in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices.

The timing of satisfaction

of the performance obligation is not subject to significant judgment.

We measure revenue as the amount of consideration expected to be

received in exchange for transferring goods and services.

We recognize service revenues as the performance obligations are met, which

is generally as milestones are satisfied over time.

We generally recognize product revenues at the time of shipment, provided that all

other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

The Company recognizes revenue when its customer

obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for

those goods or services.

To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606,

we perform the following five steps:

The Company’s revenues

The Company recognizes

revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect

to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are

within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps:

(i) identify the contract(s) with a customer;

(ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract;

(ii) identify the performance

obligations in the contract;

(iii) determine the transaction price;

(iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;

and (v) recognize

revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation.

The five-step model is applied to contracts when it is probable that we will

collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred to the customer.

At contract inception,

once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determine

those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct.

We then recognize revenue in the

amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is

The Company considers each individual sale of

service contract to be its own performance obligation.

Services in the contract are highly interdependent and interrelated, and the successful

completion of each milestone is necessary for the overall success of the contract.

Therefore, each milestone is not separately identifiable

from other promises in the contract, and not distinct and ultimately not individual performance obligations.

The Company records revenue over time using the

output measure as it is the most faithful depiction of an entity’s performance because it directly measures the value of the goods

and services transferred to the customer.

The Company utilizes the Right to Invoice for these contracts, as the pricing structure is based

on various milestones that are specified in the contract.

These milestones include Construction Phase Plan, Start of the construction

phase, installation phase, site surveys, fiber splicing, recoveries, and closeouts.

There are specified payments associated with these

milestones in the contract, and the value allocated is commensurate with work done.

In the event that there are advances such as upfront

retainers and not based on the value, those are recorded as contract liabilities.

In accordance with ASU No.

Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedient , which is to (1) clarify the objective

of the collectability criterion for applying paragraph 606-10-25-7;

(2) permit an entity to exclude amounts collected from customers for

all sales (and other similar) taxes from the transaction price;

(3) specify that the measurement date for noncash consideration is contract

(4) provide a practical expedient that permits an entity to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occur before

the beginning of the earliest period presented when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, determining the

transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations;

(5) clarify that a completed

contract for purposes of transition is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP

before the date of initial application, and (6) clarify that an entity that retrospectively applies the guidance in Topic 606 to each

prior reporting period is not required to disclose the effect of the accounting change for the period of adoption.

The amendments of this

ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

There was no impact

as a result of adopting this ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures.

Based on the terms and conditions of the product

arrangements, the Company believes that its products and services can be accounted for separately as its products and services have value

to the Company’s customers on a stand-alone basis.

When a transaction involves more than one product or service, revenue is allocated

to each deliverable based on its relative fair value;

otherwise, revenue is recognized as products are delivered or as services are provided

over the term of the customer contract.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates the embedded conversion

feature within its convertible debt instruments under ASC 815-15 and ASC 815-40 to determine if the conversion feature meets the definition

of a liability and, if so, whether to bifurcate the conversion feature and account for it as a separate derivative liability.

For derivative

financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is

then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations.

For stock-based derivative

financial instruments, the Company uses a lattice model, in accordance with ASC 815-15 , Derivative and Hedging, to value the derivative

instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments

should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

Derivative instrument liabilities are

classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required

within 12 months after the balance sheet date.

Change in Ownership in Previously Consolidated Subsidiary Results

in Deconsolidation in the Current Period

On June 28, 2023, the county court at Portsmouth,

England made a winding up order raised by a (non-related party) creditor against the Company's subsidiary Optilan (UK) Limited.

The subsidiary

on that date ceased conducting further business and the director’s powers terminated.

The consolidation of subsidiaries owned by

Optilan (UK) Limited was no longer under its control as defined by ASC 810 (Consolidation).

This compulsory liquidation resulted in a

combined “Loss on Deconsolidation” of Optilan (UK) Limited and its subsidiaries in the amount of $1,642,795.

The subsidiaries of Optilan (UK) Limited are solvent

and continue to operate.

The Company will retain no measurable residual value nor direct or indirect investment in Optilan, its subsidiaries

or its assets.

The Company will have no continuing involvement with Optilan (UK) Limited, including its subsidiaries, and will not be

owned or controlled by any related party of the Company.

Recent Events

Liquidation/winding up of Optilan (UK) Limited

On May 3, 2023, Eversheds Sutherland (International)

LLP, a creditor of Optilan (UK) Limited, filed a petition to wind up (the “ Winding up Petition ”) Optilan (UK) Limited,

a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company’s Subsidiary, Optilan HoldCo 3 Limited, and the matter was due to be heard in the Portsmouth

Combined Court Centre on June 28, 2023.

On June 28, 2023, the High Court of Justice in

the United Kingdom issued a winding-up order for the liquidation and winding up of the affairs of Optilan (UK) Limited (the “ Optilan

Liquidation ”).

In conjunction with the order, the court appointed the Offical Receiver’s Office (the “ OR ”)

to take the appointment as liquidator of Optilan (UK) Limited and take control of Optilan (UK) Limited’s assets.

At the same time the court appointed the OR to

take the appointment as liquidator of Optilan (UK) Limited.

The OR has taken control of Optilan (UK) Limited’s assets.

ORs Office has initiated contact with Optilan but we still wait to receive details of the individual who will be taking the role of OR.

On July 3, 2023, Optilan (UK) Limited received

a letter from The Insolvency Service, an executive agency sponsored by the Department for Business and Trade located in the U.K.

to the letter of The Insolvency Services, the Company was required to provide information relating to Optilan (UK) Limited to the Official

Receiver’s Office (a government body of Plymouth, the United Kingdom) and attend an interview with staff of the Official Receiver’s

Office to review the prospect of recovering the assets of Optilan (UK) Limited for the benefit of creditors.

The interview was scheduled

for July 18, 2023.

On July 18, 2023, the interview was held between

the Official Receiver’s Office (“OR”) and the CEO at time of dissolution.

The OR office requested a list of assets,

bank account information and amounts along with any contracts held by Optilan (UK) Limited to begin the liquidation process.

On August 9, 2023, Evelyn Partners was appointed

Joint Liquidator.

There are no new claims against Optilan (UK) Limited

and Evelyn Partners continue to liquidate the company’s assets.

The Company is an Unsecured creditor of Optilan

(UK) Limited and is at risk of losing any repayment of obligations due from Optilan (UK) Limited because there are several intercompany

relationships between the Company and Optilan (UK) Limited, the financial impact of any future claims and liabilities may not be known

for several months.

The Company has approximately $19.4 million intercompany payables due from Optilan (UK), which will increase the Company

liabilities for any obligations not repaid.

The remaining assets held by Optilan (UK) Limited were fully impaired in 2023 as a result

of the winding-up order for liquidation.

Nine-Months Ended September 30, 2024 Accounting Ana ly sis

The Company performed an analysis of the trade

receivables related to Optilan (UK) Limited and determined that an additional $2,422,457 may not be collectible pursuant to Optilan Liquidation.

The Company recorded a bad debt provision for this amount.

As a result of Optilan Liquidation as described

in Note 1, management determined that certain events and circumstances occurred that indicated that the carrying amount of the Company’s

reporting unit may not be recoverable.

The qualitative assessment was primarily due to the customer contracts held by Optilan (UK) Limited

and the associated revenue projections by the UK subsidiary that is subject to the potential winding up.

As such, the Company compared

the fair value of the reporting unit to the carrying amounts and recorded an impairment loss of $ 2,037,670 pertaining to impairment and

goodwill in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company recorded impairment of the indefinite-lived intangible asset of $356,260,

and impairment of goodwill of $ 1,681,410.

The Company has one reporting unit which was evaluated in the impairment test noted above.

As a result of the impairment, the Company had a carrying value of $0 pertaining to goodwill and intangible assets as of September 30,

Optilan (UK) Limited became subject to the control

of a government and was appointed an administrator.

In this situation, when the parent ceases to have a financial interest in a subsidiary

and does not retain an investment in that subsidiary, the parent should deconsolidate the subsidiary and recognize a gain or loss on deconsolidation

in accordance with ASC 810-10-40-5.

In addition, ASC 810-10-40-3A states when a parent

deconsolidates a subsidiary or derecognizes a group of assets, the parent no longer controls the subsidiary's assets and liabilities or

the group of assets.

The parent therefore shall derecognize the assets, liabilities, and equity components related to that subsidiary

or group of assets.

The equity components will include any noncontrolling interest as well as amounts previously recognized in accumulated

other comprehensive income.

If the subsidiary or group of assets being deconsolidated or derecognized is a foreign entity (or represents

the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which it resides), then the amount of accumulated other comprehensive

income that is reclassified and included in the calculation of gain or loss shall include any foreign currency translation adjustment

related to that foreign entity.

Upon the liquidation, on June 28, 2023, the Company

derecognized Optilan UK’s assets and liabilities and recorded a loss on consolidation of $1,624,795, which was recognized in other

income (expenses) in the consolidated statements of operations.

Included in the loss on consolidation of $1,642,795

are the gains on intercompany receivables and payables and currency translation adjustment $12,721,532 and $1,545,008 respectively, offset

by the net loss on impairment of investments of $12,623.

In addition, the allowance of $2,422,457 was recorded

against receivables that have been deemed uncollectible.

On May 27, 2022, we entered an Equity Financing

Agreement (the “ 2022 EFA ”) and Registration Rights Agreement (the “ RRA ”) with GHS, pursuant to which

GHS agreed to purchase up to $70,000,000 in shares of our Common Stock, from time to time over the course of 24 months after effectiveness

of a registration statement on Form S-1 of the underlying shares of Common Stock.

The RRA provides that we shall (i) use our best

as well as real world POC deployments beginning in 2009 with most recent deployment in 2021.

There are also papers submitted and published

via IEEE and available online.

The system components include:

patented hardware containing various electronic components and lasers, proprietary

software utilized to collect analog data and convert that data to digital data, and a user interface utilizing proprietary software as

well as Unity game engine for the VR capability component of the User Interface.

Deployment of the system begins with engineering design

based on Scope requirements and installation environment.

Fiber optic cable is then installed into the medium to be monitored.

is then provisioned remotely by optical engineers.

Our business model, as

it relates to hardware sales, is “Just in Time” and maintaining a very low inventory.

Projects require several weeks of installation,

design, and engineering followed by the installation of fiber optic cables.

The average time required to build hardware units is less

than the time needed for the engineering and fiber installation process.

To date, we have yet to sell our patented BOTDA dark-pulse sensor

system and we have built two units for demonstration of the system to potential customers.

We are now able to sell our patented technology

and related services.

We currently have no commitments to buy our units.

Our agreement with the

University of New Brunswick requires a royalty of 2% beginning April 24, 2018;

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No.

Business Combinations (Topic 805):

Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , issued

by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

This ASU requires entities to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities

acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

The update will

generally result in the recognition of contract assets and contract liabilities at amounts consistent with those recorded by the acquiree

immediately before the acquisition date rather than at fair value.

The Company expects that there would be no material impact on the Company’s

condensed consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this ASU.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, which

simplifies the guidance on the issuer’s accounting for convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for convertible

debt with a cash conversion feature and convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature.

As a result, entities will not separately

present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt and will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, unless

certain other conditions are met.

The elimination of these models will reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income

for entities that have issued a convertible instrument that is within the scope of ASU 2020-06.

ASU 2020-06 is applicable for fiscal years

beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.

adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022 and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated

financial statements and related disclosures.

2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 2220-40) which intends to improve the

disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the

types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented

expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development).

2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-04 Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20):

Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments

to improve and clarify the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted

for as an induced conversion.

2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation Topic (718) contains amendments by adding an illustrative example

to demonstrate how an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718- 10-15-3 to determine whether profits interest and similar

awards improve the understandability of paragraph 718-10-15-3 apply to all entities that enter into share-based payment transactions.

2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-02 Codification Improvements which contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various

FASB Concepts Statements.

The Board has a standing project on its agenda to address suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting

Standards Codification and other incremental improvements to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

This effort facilitates

Codification updates for technical corrections such as conforming amendments, clarifications to guidance, simplifications to wording or

the structure of guidance, and other minor improvements.

The resulting amendments are referred to as Codification improvements.
