Tek84 Unveils New Brand Identity Built to Magnify What Security Officers Can Do

Oct 22, 2026

New Tek84 brand reflects the company's proven technology and commitment to public safety

POWAY, Calif. - Oct. 22, 2026 - PRLog -- Tek84 Inc., a leader in American-made security screening technology, today announced a new brand identity reflecting the company's continued growth, proven leadership, and vision for the future of security and corrections.

The new identity is built around a simple idea: Tek84 magnifies what correctional and security officers are capable of every day.

For decades, Tek84 has developed and deployed technologies designed to help security professionals detect threats, make informed decisions, and protect the people in their care. The new brand brings that mission to the forefront with a bold identity that communicates the scale, confidence, and capability behind the Tek84 name.

The Power Behind the 84

At the center of the new identity is the Tek84 name, with the "84" positioned as a superscript to represent an exponential operator.

More than a design element, it is a visual expression of what Tek84 technology is designed to do: multiply the capabilities of a single officer.

From advanced body scanning to software that helps operators identify and respond to potential threats, Tek84 gives security professionals greater capability while keeping human expertise at the center of every screening decision.

A Purpose Grounded in Trust

Tek84's North Star remains straightforward: Tek84 exists to give those tasked with the safety of others the tools they can trust.

The company delivers on that purpose by proving it, not just promising it. installation after installation, deployment after deployment, for decades.

Today, Tek84 technology is deployed in almost all 50 states and trusted by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, state prisons, and hundreds of county and city correctional institutions. Tek84 products are American-made and supported by American-based service.

"Our new brand reflects where Tek84 is going, while remaining firmly rooted in what has gotten us here," said Albert Perez, CEO of Tek84. "We have spent over a decade proving our technology in some of the most demanding security environments in the country. This new identity gives us a way to communicate that confidence more clearly and express the exponential capabilities we provide to the people who rely on our technology every day."

The rebrand marks an important milestone as Tek84 continues to expand its technology, capabilities, and impact across the security and corrections markets and the new website was just launched at www.tek84.com.

While the look and expression of the brand are evolving, the commitment remains the same: develop technology that excels, prove it in the field, and give security professionals tools they can trust.

As the future of security screening demands greater capability, faster decision-making, and smarter technology, Tek84 is positioned to help lead the way and magnify the possibilities.

The 2026 election could reshape healthcare

The 2026 election could reshape healthcare

New Yorkers march in support of universal healthcare this summer. | LightRocket via Getty Images Americans are furious about the state of our healthcare system.  A recent KFF poll found 60 percent of US adults worry about the cost of medical care — more than gasoline, food and groceries, or their rent or mortgage. One in three Americans say they worry every day or almost every day about their ability to afford healthcare, per a new survey from the Pew Research Center. There seems to be a growing appetite for reform, too: More than 65 percent of Americans say they support the government spending more tax dollars to lower healthcare costs.  Democrats are trying to weaponize those frustrations against the Republicans who currently hold Congress and the White House. By a 2-to-1 margin, voters say they trust Democrats over Republicans on healthcare. That could mean single-payer Medicare-for-all or a new public insurance option or maybe something else. What all this energy leads to will depend on what happens in November. The candidates themselves are framing the stakes in those existential terms.  Sign up for the Good Medicine newsletter Our political wellness landscape has shifted: new leaders, shady science, contradictory advice, broken trust, and overwhelming systems. How is anyone supposed to make sense of it all? Vox’s senior correspondent Dylan Scott has been on the health beat for a long time, and every week, he’ll wade into sticky debates, answer fair questions, and contextualize what’s happening in American health care policy. Sign up here. “Medicare for all is where we need to go,” Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic candidate in the Michigan Senate race whose support for the policy has been widely covered, said during an August interview with CNN. “And my hope is, both coming out of the 2026 midterms and then out of 2028, that we’re going to be on our way to a Senate majority to be able to get this done.” Real change will have to wait for the 2028 presidential election and a new occupant in the White House. But this year’s midterms are still a make-or-break moment: The candidates who get elected this year, and how they shape the upcoming presidential primary debate and actions in Congress, will determine whether healthcare reform happens at all.  If you’re fed up with the state of American healthcare, and you want to see a change, you should show up for the midterms on Tuesday, November 3. Big midterm wins can beget big healthcare wins  The classic pattern in American elections is that more voters go to the polls during presidential campaigns than during the midterm elections when only House and Senate seats are on the ballot. Turnout has started to tick up for the midterms in recent years, but it still trails behind presidential years. Midterms suffer from the perception that there’s not as much at stake if the White House is not on the line. But that’s never been strictly true.  Midterm elections are extraordinarily important in shaping the future of policymaking, even if the payoff is delayed. They help determine both the character of the Congress that could eventually pass a major bill after the next presidential election, and the kind of ideas and policies that are going to be prioritized. “Voters should see 2026 and 2028 as the elections that will guide the next big change in our healthcare system,” said Natalie Davis, CEO and co-founder of the advocacy group United States of Care, in a statement to Vox. “These elections will be how voters’ demands are heard — and will tell us whether the next real window for change will come with serious reforms or missed opportunity.” A walk through the recent history of healthcare reform should help make the stakes of the 2026 elections clear. In 2006, the national mood looked similar to what we’re seeing today. A very unpopular Republican president was in office, and the country had soured on his agenda. George W. Bush’s foreign wars and his misguided attempt to overhaul Social Security gave Democrats an opportunity to win big in the 2006 midterms — and they did. Dems won more than 30 seats and secured a comfortable majority in the House. In the Senate, they won six seats and narrowly took control of that chamber too. It was a resounding rejection of the Bush administration, and it set up the next decade of Democratic policymaking. At the highest level, the midterms gave energy to the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, united as they were around their opposition to the Iraq War, and that energy carried over to the presidential primary. Barack Obama defeated Hillary Clinton and won the presidency, springboarding off of the excitement that started with the 2006 elections. Dems’ success in the midterms also helped put lowering healthcare costs at the forefront of the Democratic agenda. That encouraged both Obama and Clinton to develop detailed healthcare policy proposals during their primary campaigns and ultimately set the stage for the Democrats to pursue the Affordable Care Act once they had full control of the government in 2009. And then there is the literal size of the congressional majorities that parties need to pass their agenda. Voters may not spend much time thinking about whip counts, but one or two elections in a midterm year can ultimately decide the fate of the next president’s agenda.  Part of the reason Democrats were able to pass the ACA was that they built on their huge wins in 2006 with more wins in 2008 and held massive congressional majorities once Obama was sworn in. And once the debate over healthcare reform really got started, they needed every single vote. It was especially important in the Senate: Democrats had exactly 60 votes in 2009. That meant if all of them united together, they could pass filibuster-proof legislation — so long as nobody defected. That was only possible because in 2006 Mark Pryor won a Senate seat in Arkansas, Sherrod Brown triumphed in a Senate race in Ohio, and Jon Tester beat an incumbent Republican in Montana.  Without those wins in 2006, the Democratic legislative agenda in 2009 would probably have looked different. They might’ve had to pursue a more limited healthcare reform plan; maybe the ACA wouldn’t have passed at all. What kind of Democrats will be on the rise in 2028? The 2006 midterms both created the opportunity for the ACA — and set the limits on what the legislation could actually achieve. Democrats had that 60-seat Senate majority, but within it were many more moderate members. Policies like the public option (which would have authorized the government to create its own health insurance plan to sell alongside private insurance) couldn’t get sufficient support. That is the dilemma of policymaking: You need those swing-seat members to win, which often means tacking to the center, but you also can’t pass anything they won’t get on board with.  Nevertheless, that is a good kind of political problem to have, one which Democrats would be thrilled to face in January 2029. All of which brings us to 2026. What are we going to do now? It all starts with the vote count. Most projections expect the Democrats to win between 10 and 20 House seats. But the difference between 10 and 20 could be substantial. The cushier the majority, the further you can push the policy agenda. More than 30 House Democrats actually voted against the ACA, but they could still narrowly pass the bill because of the huge majority that they had started building in 2006.  If you live in one of the districts — like Arizona’s Sixth or Colorado’s Eighth or Florida’s 22nd, to name just a couple of the 21 toss-up races identified by the Cook Political Report this year — that forecasters say is competitive this year, you could have an outsized say in what the future of policymaking looks like. But even in safe districts, you should vote: Elections are the most reliable way we have to gauge public opinion, and strong victories for the candidates who prioritize healthcare send a message. The same goes for the Senate. If Democrats sweep all of the competitive races, they could have up to 55 seats in the Senate in 2027 — with a chance to build on it in 2028. If you are a voter in Kansas, Michigan, Ohio, Texas, Alaska, Maine, New Hampshire, or Iowa, your ballot carries extra weight for the next steps in US healthcare reform. If the Democrats can reach 60 votes again in 2029, they would have much more flexibility about what to pass. Even if they fall short of that magic number, the more of a cushion they have above 50, the more likely that their Senate leaders can find support for altering Senate rules for the filibuster and get an ambitious bill approved. How you can get involved this election If there is ever going to be a path to a true healthcare overhaul, it starts with this year’s elections. If you want to see a change, you can vote — and you can do more than that.  Talk to your neighbors. Phone bank for candidates you believe in.  You can even sign up to drive people to the polls on Election Day. The results of this year’s midterms will also set the terms of the debate among Democrats. We are likely to see “show” bills advanced by Dems next year that may have no chance of being signed by President Donald Trump, but that will give us a sense of what kind of policies the party wants to pursue and how much support there is for them. Believe it or not, the first Medicare prescription drug negotiations bill passed the House in 2007 after Democrats’ big wins in 2006 — even though the policy didn’t become law for another 15 years. The broader public may not pay much attention to this kind of doomed-to-fail legislation, but it is often a window into the future. “One challenge for Democrats is finding the next big health care idea beyond the Affordable Care Act that will resonate with voters and respond to their affordability concerns,” said Larry Levitt, executive vice president for health policy at KFF. “One big difference between now and 2006 i
