Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Principles of Consolidation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SecureAlert, Inc. (DBA Track Group) and its subsidiaries. Additionally, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company formed a Chilean subsidiary and sold Midwest Monitoring & Surveillance, Inc. and Court Programs, Inc. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company acquired two additional subsidiaries (see Note 3 “Acquisitions” below). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, certain assumptions related to the recoverability of intangible and long-lived assets, and fair market values of certain assets and liabilities.
	Business Combinations
	Business combinations are accounted for under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (ASC 805-10), which requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the contingent consideration is recorded at its probable fair value at the acquisition date. Any changes in fair value after the acquisition date are accounted for as measurement-period adjustments if they pertain to additional information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date and that we obtained during the measurement period. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration resulting from events after the acquisition date, such as performance measures, are recognized in earnings.
	Foreign currency translation
	The Chilean Peso and Israeli New Shekel are the functional currencies of Track Group – Chile and Track Group – Israel. Their respective balance sheets have been translated into USD at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Their respective statements of operations have been translated into USD using the average exchange rates prevailing during the periods of each statement. The corresponding translation adjustments are part of accumulated other comprehensive income and are shown as part of shareholders’ equity.
	Goodwill represents costs in excess of purchase price over the fair value of the assets of businesses acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets.
	Other Intangible Assets
	Other intangible assets principally consist of patents, royalty purchase agreements, developed technology acquired, customer relationships, trade name and capitalized website development costs.  The Company accounts for other intangible assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and does not amortize intangible assets with indefinite lives.  The Company’s intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives which range from two to ten years.  The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate possible impairment.
	Fair Value of Financial Statements
	The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for accrued liabilities and debt obligations approximate fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations approximate fair value as the interest rates approximate market interest rates.
	Concentration of Credit Risk
	In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers and requires no collateral. Accordingly, the Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition.
	The Company had sales to entities which represent more than 10 percent of total revenues as follows for the years ended September 30:
		2014			%			2013		%
	Customer A	$	-			0	%	$	5,252,960		33	%
	Customer B	$	1,501,940			12	%	$	1,622,327		10	%
	Customer C	$	1,431,854			12	%	$	1,514,581		9	%
	No other customer represented more than 10 percent of the Company’s total revenues for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 or 2013.
	Concentration of credit risk associated with the Company’s total and outstanding accounts receivable as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are shown in the table below:
		2014			%			2013		%
	Customer A	$	-			0	%	$	892,897		24	%
	Customer B	$	499,040			13	%	$	732,163		20	%
	Customer C	$	419,523			11	%	$	887,233		24	%
	Based upon the expected collectability of its accounts receivable, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. Subsequent to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, the Company received $387,483 from Customer B and $518,137 from Customer C for a total of $905,620.
	Cash Equivalents
	Cash equivalents consist of investments with original maturities to the Company of three months or less.  The Company has cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company had $10,572,702 and $3,128,187 of cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Accounts Receivable
	Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. The allowance is estimated by management based on certain assumptions and variables, including the customer’s financial condition, age of the customer’s receivables and changes in payment histories.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when cash is received.  A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance has not been received by the Company within its normal terms.  Interest income is not recorded on trade receivables that are past due, unless that interest is collected.
	Note Receivable
	Notes receivable are carried at the face amount of each note plus respective accrued interest receivable, less received payments.  The Company does not typically carry notes receivable in the course of its regular business, but had entered into an agreement with one of its customers during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.  Payments are under the note are recorded as they are received and are immediately offset against any outstanding accrued interest before they are applied against the outstanding principal balance on the respective note.  The note requires monthly payments of $15,000 and matures in May 2014.  The note is currently in default and accrues interest at a rate of 17% per annum. As of September 30, 2014, the outstanding balance of the note was $156,323 and $15,211 of accrued interest.
	Inventory
	Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost or market.  Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.  Market is determined based on the estimated net realizable value, which generally is the item selling price.  Inventory is periodically reviewed in order to identify obsolete or damaged items or impaired values.  The Company impaired its inventory by $153,633 and $211,555 during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Inventory consists of raw materials that are used in the manufacturing of ReliAlert™, Shadow, and other tracking devices.  Completed ReliAlert™ and other tracking devices are reflected in Monitoring Equipment.  As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, inventory consisted of the following:
		2014			2013
	Raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventory	$	1,471,764		$	615,144
	Reserve for damaged or obsolete inventory		(223,500	)		(148,043	)
	Total inventory, net of reserves	$	1,248,264		$	467,101
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization are determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, typically three to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed while renewals and improvements are capitalized.
	Property and equipment consisted of the following as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively:
		2014			2013
	Equipment, software and tooling	$	2,571,450		$	2,002,576

	Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation	$	1,860,247		$	318,201
	Property and equipment to be disposed of is reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell and any gains or losses are included in the results of operations. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company disposed of net property and equipment of $3,710 and $4,740, respectively.
	Depreciation expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $276,355 and $231,853, respectively.
	Monitoring Equipment
	The Company began leasing monitoring equipment to agencies for offender tracking in April 2006 under operating lease arrangements.  The monitoring equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of three years. Monitoring equipment as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:
		2014			2013
	Monitoring equipment	$	3,166,217		$	2,420,042
	Less: accumulated amortization		(1,251,551	)		(1,183,346	)
	Monitoring equipment,  net of accumulated depreciation	$	1,914,666		$	1,236,696
	Amortization expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $844,172 and $1,230,293, respectively.  These expenses were classified as a cost of revenues.
	Monitoring equipment to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell.  During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company disposed and impaired lease monitoring equipment and parts of $209,757 and $296,526, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized $220,318 of impairment expense for future impairment of monitoring equipment during the year ended September 30, 2014. These impairment costs were included in cost of revenues.
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
	The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of goodwill, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.  Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets.
	Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue has historically been from two sources: (i) monitoring services; and (ii) product sales.
Monitoring Services
Monitoring services include two components: (a) lease contracts in which the Company provides monitoring services and leases devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (b) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.
The Company typically leases its devices under one-year contracts with customers that opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.  However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at any time with 30 days’ notice.  Under the Company’s standard leasing contract, the leased device becomes billable on the date of activation or 7 to 21 days from the date the device is assigned to the lessee, and remains billable until the device is returned to the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on leased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.  In those circumstances in which the Company receives payment in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.
Product Sales
The Company may sell its monitoring devices in certain situations to its customers. In addition, the Company may sell equipment in connection with the building out and setting up a monitoring center on behalf of its customers. The Company recognizes product sales revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer and the customer cannot return the devices or equipment, prices are fixed or determinable (including sales not being made outside the normal payment terms) and collection is reasonably assured. When purchasing products (such as TrackerPAL® and ReliAlert™ devices) from the Company, customers may, but are not required to, enter into monitoring service contracts with the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on monitoring services for customers that have previously purchased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.
The Company sells and installs standalone tracking systems that do not require ongoing monitoring by the Company.  The Company has experience in component installation costs and direct labor hours related to this type of sale and can typically reasonably estimate costs, therefore the Company recognizes revenue over the period in which the installation services are performed using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for material installations.  The Company typically uses labor hours or costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated labor hours or costs to fulfill the contract as the most reliable and meaningful measure that is available for determining a project’s progress toward completion.  The Company evaluates its estimated labor hours and costs and determines the estimated gross profit or loss on each installation for each reporting period.  If it is determined that total cost estimates are likely to exceed revenues, the Company accrues the estimated losses immediately. All amounts billed have been earned.
Multiple Element Arrangements
The majority of the Company’s revenue transactions do not have multiple elements. However, on occasion, the Company enters into revenue transactions that have multiple elements. These may include different combinations of products or monitoring services that are included in a single billable rate. These products or monitoring services are delivered over time as the customer utilizes the Company's services. For revenue arrangements that have multiple elements, the Company considers whether the delivered devices have standalone value to the customer, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered monitoring services, which is generally determined by surveying the price of competitors’ comparable monitoring services, and the customer does not have a general right of return. Based on these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of devices separately from the monitoring services provided to the customer as the products or monitoring services are delivered.
Other Matters
The Company considers an arrangement with payment terms longer than the Company’s normal terms not to be fixed or determinable, and revenue is recognized when the fee becomes due.  Normal payment terms for the sale of monitoring services and products are due upon receipt to 30 days.  The Company sells its devices and services directly to end users and to distributors.  Distributors do not have general rights of return.  Also, distributors have no price protection or stock protection rights with respect to devices sold to them by the Company.  Generally, title and risk of loss pass to the buyer upon delivery of the devices.
The Company estimates its product returns based on historical experience and maintains an allowance for estimated returns, which is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable and revenue.
Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included as part of net revenues.  The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.
Geographical Information
The Company recognized revenues from international sources from its products and monitoring services.  Revenues are attributed to the geographic areas based on the location of the customers purchasing and leasing the products.  The revenues recognized by geographic area for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, are as follows:
	Fiscal Years Ended
	September 30,
	2014			2013
United States of America	$	9,268,430		$	7,179,043
Latin American countries		-			5,252,960
Caribbean countries and commonwealths		2,933,794			3,136,908
Other foreign countries		59,974			72,151
Total	$	12,262,198		$	15,641,062
The long-lived assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, used in the generation of revenues by geographic area as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, were as follows:
	Net Property and Equipment						Net Monitoring Equipment
	2014			2013			2014		2013
United States of America	$	611,095		$	318,201		$	1,645,137	$	878,823
Latin American countries		1,168,406			-			237,667		-
Caribbean countries and commonwealths		-			-			-		351,138
Other foreign countries		80,746			-			31,862		6,735
Total	$	1,860,247		$	318,201		$	1,914,666	$	1,236,696
Research and Development Costs
All expenditures for research and development are charged to expense as incurred. These expenditures in 2014 and 2013 were to further develop our TrackerPAL and ReliAlert portfolio of products and services, as well as other research and development costs incurred by a new subsidiary acquired during fiscal year 2014. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, research and development expenses were $1,605,662 and $987,934, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.  Advertising expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $60,505 and $30,782, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences are expected to be settled or realized.  Deferred income tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary.
The tax effects from uncertain tax positions can be recognized in the financial statements, provided the position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized, upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company applied the foregoing accounting standard to all of its tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open as of the date of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax issues as components of other noninterest expense. As of September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, the Company did not record a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrnats to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock.  As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, there were 347,251 and 604,006 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  The Common Stock equivalents outstanding as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 consisted of the following:
	2014			2013
Conversion of Series D Preferred stock		-			14,040
Exercise of outstanding Common Stock options and warrants		305,251			427,966
Exercise and conversion of outstanding Series D Preferred stock warrants		42,000			162,000
Total Common Stock equivalents		347,251			604,006
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which addresses the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. This guidance requires the netting of unrecognized tax benefits against a deferred tax asset for a loss or other carryforward that would apply in settlement of the uncertain tax positions. ASU 2013-11 will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Early adoption is permitted. Since ASU 2013-11 only impacts financial statement disclosure requirements for unrecognized tax benefits, the Company does not expect the adoption of the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard sets forth management’s responsibility to evaluate, each reporting period, whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and if so, to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating this new standard and after adoption, we will incorporate this guidance in our assessment of going concern.

Acquisitions

Acquisitions	12 Months Ended

Notes to Financial Statements
ACQUISITIONS	On March 12, 2014, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) to purchase from Eli Sabag, an individual resident of the State of Israel (“Seller”), all of the issued and outstanding shares (“Shares”) of GPS Global Tracking and Surveillance System Ltd., a company formed under the laws of and operating in the State of Israel (“GPS Global”). The SPA contained customary representations and warranties and covenants, including provisions for indemnification, subject to the limitations described in the SPA. Subsequent to the closing, the Seller and certain key employees of GPS Global entered into employment agreements and continue to operate GPS Global. The SPA also granted the Seller the right for a three-year period following the closing, to nominate one director to serve on the Registrant’s board and on GPS Global’s board of directors. The closing of the transaction, which occurred on April 1, 2014, was subject to customary closing conditions.
	The purchase price for the Shares was $7,811,404, payable in cash and shares of Registrant’s Common Stock as follows:
	●	Cash to Seller of $311,404 at the closing;
	●	Shares of Registrant’s Common Stock valued at $7,500,000, delivered to Seller as follows:
	o	Common Stock valued at $1,600,000 delivered to Seller at the closing.
	o	Common Stock valued at $2,900,000, delivered to an escrow agent (“Bank”) to be released by Bank to Seller after six months from the closing, conditioned upon Registrant’s verification that GPS Global’s global positioning satellite (“GPS”) products (the “Devices”) meet expected operating specifications;
	o	Common Stock valued at $1,000,000, the number of shares to be determined by dividing $1,000,000 by the weighted average closing price of the Registrant’s Common Stock for the 60 consecutive trading days preceding the third business day prior to release of such shares, to be issued to Seller by Registrant within 30 days of certification that GPS Global has sold or leased a minimum of 1,500 of its Devices under revenue-generating contracts; and
	o	Common Stock valued at $2,000,000,  the number of shares to be determined by dividing $2,000,000 by the weighted average closing price of the Registrant’s Common Stock for the 60 consecutive trading days preceding the third business day prior to release of such shares, to be issued to Seller by Registrant within 30 days of certification that GPS Global has sold or leased a minimum of 2,500 of its Devices under revenue-generating contracts, in addition to the 1,500 Devices previously mentioned (i.e., a minimum of 4,000 Devices sold or leased).
	As described above, shares of Common Stock valued at $3,000,000 may be payable based on sales of the GPS devices sold or leased. Management determined that it was probable that sales of GPS devices would exceed the number of units specified in the SPA, and has therefore, recognized a Stock Payable liability for the entire $3,000,000 value of common shares payable.
	The total purchase price for the GPS Global acquisition was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets based upon their fair values as of March 31, 2014 as set forth below. The excess of the purchase price over the net assets was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill recognized from this acquisition is not tax deductible. This acquisition provided the Company with additional research and development capabilities and enhanced technology which are expected to benefit current and future products.

The Emerge SPA contains customary representations and warranties and covenants, including provisions for indemnification, subject to the limitations described in the Emerge SPA. Certain key employees of the acquired entities continued to operate the acquired entities following the closing. During June 2014, the Company also committed to purchase the remaining 35% minority equity interest of Integrated Monitoring Systems, LLC. This purchase occurred during July 2014.
	The purchase price for the Emerge acquisition was $7,739,167, all of which was paid in cash. The total purchase price for the Emerge acquisition was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets based upon their fair values as of June 1, 2014 as set forth below. The excess of the purchase price over the net assets was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition is fully deductible for tax purposes. This acquisition provided the Company with significant customer relationships, an experienced sales and management team and additional alcohol monitoring product offerings.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions	12 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2014
Notes to Financial Statements
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions	The Company entered into certain transactions with related parties during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. These transactions consist mainly of financing transactions and service agreements.  Transactions with related parties are reviewed and approved by the independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors.
	Royalty Agreement
	On August 4, 2011, with an effective date of July 1, 2011, we entered into an agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) with Borinquen Container Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (“Borinquen”) to purchase Borinquen’s wholly-owned subsidiary, International Surveillance Services Corporation, a Puerto Rico corporation (“ISS”) in consideration of 310,000 shares of our Common Stock, valued at the market price on the date of the Royalty Agreement at $16.40 per share, or $5,084,000.  We also agreed to pay to Borinquen quarterly royalty payments in an amount equal to 20% of our net revenues from the sale or lease of our monitoring devices and monitoring services within a territory comprised of South and Central America, the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal, for a term of 20 years.  On February 1, 2013, we redeemed and terminated this royalty obligation in February 2013 for a total cost of $13.0 million using the proceeds of a $16.7 million loan from a related party, Sapinda Asia Limited (“Sapinda Asia”). In addition to the $13.0 million used to terminate the Royalty Agreement, we used the remaining $3.7 million as operating capital during the 2013 fiscal year. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a debt discount of $14,296,296 which was recorded as interest expense to account for a beneficial conversion feature in connection with the Loan. Additionally, $605,281 of interest expense was recorded during the fiscal year ended 2013 to record accretion of debt discount. On September 30, 2013, Sapinda Asia converted all outstanding principal and interest in connection with the Loan in the amount of $17,576,627 into 3,905,917 shares of Common Stock at a rate of $4.50 per share.
	Revolving Loan Agreement
	On February 1, 2013, the Company entered into a revolving loan agreement with Sapinda Asia (the “Revolving Loan”).  Under this arrangement, the Company may borrow up to $1,200,000 at an interest rate of 3% per annum for unused funds and 10% per annum for borrowed funds. As of September 30, 2013, no advances have been made under this loan and the Company had accrued $23,868 in interest liability on the Revolving Loan.  On October 24, 2013, the Company drew down the full $1,200,000 for use in a performance bond as required under a contract with an international customer.The loan initially matured in June 2014; however, the note was extended and now matures in December 2015.
	Related-Party Promissory Note
	On November 19, 2013, the Company borrowed $1,500,000 from Sapinda Asia, a significant shareholder.  The unsecured note bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and initially matured on November 18, 2014. The note initially matured in November 2014. However, the maturity date of the note was subsequently extended to November 2015.  As of September 30, 2014, the Company owed $1,500,000 of principal and $43,726 of accrued interest on the note.
	Related-Party Service Agreement
	During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Paranet Solutions, LLC to provide the following primary services:  (i) procurement of hardware and software necessary to ensure that vital databases are available in the event of a disaster (backup and disaster recovery system); and (ii) providing the security of all data and the integrity of such data against all loss of data, misappropriation of data by Paranet, its employees and affiliates.  David S. Boone, a director and member of the Company’s Executive Committee, was the Chief Executive Officer of Paranet until August 2014.
	As consideration for these services, the Company agreed to pay Paranet $4,500 per month.  The arrangement can be terminated by either party for any reason upon ninety (90) days written notice to the other party. During the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company paid Paranet $461,223 and $8,552, respectively.
	Related-Party Loan
	During the fiscal year ended 2012, the Company borrowed $500,000 from a former officer. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company established terms for this loan which created a debt discount of $500,000 which was immediately recorded as interest expense to account for a beneficial conversion feature to reflect an adjustment in the conversion rate from $11.00 to $4.50 to equal the conversion rate of the Loan to redeem the royalty. During fiscal year 2013, this debt was converted into 111,112 shares of Common Stock.
	Related-Party Convertible Debenture #1
	During the fiscal year ended 2012, the Company borrowed $500,000 from a director with an interest rate of 8% per annum. The debenture was to mature on December 17, 2012 and secured by the domestic patents of the Company. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the debenture was convertible at $4.50 which created a beneficial conversion feature discount of $110,556 which was to be amortized over the term of the loan, but was accelerated upon the conversion of the debenture into 117,784 shares of Common Stock.
	Related-Party Convertible Debenture #2
	During the fiscal year ended 2012, the Company borrowed $2,000,000 from a significant shareholder with an interest rate of 8 percent per annum. The debenture was to mature on December 17, 2012 and secured by the domestic patents of the Company. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the debenture was convertible at $4.50 which created a beneficial conversion feature discount of $442,222, which was to be amortized over the term of the loan, but was accelerated upon the conversion of the debenture into 472,548 shares of Common Stock.
	Facility Agreement
	On January 3, 2014, we entered into an unsecured Facility Agreement with Tetra House Pte. Ltd., a related-party entity, controlled by our Chairman, Guy Dubois.  Under this agreement, we may borrow up to $25,000,000 for working capital and acquisitions purposes. The loan bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable in arrears semi-annually, with all principal and accrued and unpaid interest due on January 3, 2016. In addition, we agreed to pay Tetra House an arrangement fee equal to 3% of the aggregate maximum amount under the loan.

Stock Options and Warrants	Stock Incentive Plan
	At the annual meeting of shareholders on December 21, 2011, the shareholders approved the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2012 Plan”), which had previously been adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company.  The 2012 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and performance-based awards to employees and certain non-employees who have important relationships with the Company. A total of 90,000 shares are authorized for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2012 Plan.  During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, there were no options were issued under this 2012 Plan. During the year ended September 30, 2014, we issued 8,787 shares of Common Stock under this plan. As of September 30, 2014, 51,213 shares of Common Stock were available for future grants under the 2012 Plan.
	All Options and Warrants
	During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, the Company granted 69,356 warrants to members of its Board of Directors, valued at $391,578. The Company also granted 15,000 warrants to an employee valued at $76,880. As of September 30, 2014, $200,218 of compensation expense associated with unvested stock options and warrants issued previously to members of the Board of Directors will be recognized over the next year.
	During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company granted 143,937 warrants to members of its Board of Directors, valued at $701,062. As of September 30, 2013, $154,378 of compensation expense associated with unvested stock options and warrants issued previously to members of the Board of Directors will be recognized over the next year.
	The following are the weighted-average assumptions used for options granted during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 using the Black-Scholes model, respectively:
		Fiscal Years Ended
		September 30,
		2014			2013
	Expected cash dividend yield		-			-
	Expected stock price volatility		0	%		108	%
	Risk-free interest rate		0.65	%		0.18	%
	Expected life of options	1.05 Years			1.38 Years
	The fair value of each stock option and warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected life of stock options and warrants represents the period of time that the stock options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP.  The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s Common Stock. In fiscal year 2013, the Company changed from a daily to weekly volatility. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related stock options and warrants. The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the stock option and warrants.
	A summary of the compensation-based options and warrants activity for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is presented below:
		Shares Under Option			Weighted Average Exercise Price			Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	Outstanding as of September 30, 2012		336,782		$	28

Income_Taxes

Income Taxes	12 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2014
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences are expected to be settled or realized.  Deferred income tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary.  Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities, when incurred, are classified in interest expense and income tax provision, respectively.
	For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred net losses for income tax purposes of $8,419,359 and $3,427,372, respectively.  The amount and ultimate realization of the benefits from the net operating losses is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company's future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined.  The Company has established a valuation allowance for all deferred income tax assets not offset by deferred income tax liabilities due to the uncertainty of their realization.  Accordingly, there is no benefit for income taxes in the accompanying statements of operations.
	At September 30, 2014, the Company had net carryforwards available to offset future taxable income of approximately $203,000,000 which will begin to expire in 2020.  The utilization of the net loss carryforwards is dependent upon the tax laws in effect at the time the net operating loss carryforwards can be utilized.  The Internal Revenue Code contains provisions that likely could reduce or limit the availability and utilization of these net operating loss carryforwards. As part of a debt conversion to Common Stock on September 30, 2014 the Company believes a Section 382 ownership change occurred. In general, a Section 382 ownership change occurs if there is a cumulative change in ownership by “5%” shareholders (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) that exceeds 50 percentage points over a rolling three-year period. An ownership change generally affects the rate at which NOLs and potentially other deferred tax assets are permitted to offset future taxable income. Of our federal NOL amount as of September 30, 2014, approximately $66,000,000 is subject to an annual Section 382 limitation of approximately $6,200,000 per year due to the ownership change. Since the Company maintains a full valuation allowance on all of its U.S. and state deferred tax assets, the impact of the ownership change on the future realizability of its U.S. and state deferred tax assets did not result in an impact to our provision for income taxes for the year ended September 30, 2014, or on the Company’s net deferred tax asset as of September 30, 2014.
	The deferred income tax assets (liabilities) were comprised of the following for the periods indicated:

No accrual for a potential loss has been made as management believes the probability of incurring a material loss is remote.
	Christopher P. Baker v. SecureAlert, Inc.  In February 2013, Mr. Baker filed suit against the Company in the Third Judicial District Court in and for Salt Lake County, State of Utah.  Mr. Baker asserts that the Company breached a 2006 consulting agreement with him and claims damages of not less than $210,000.  The Company disputes the plaintiff’s claims and will defend the case vigorously.  No accrual for a potential loss has been made as management believes the probability of incurring a material loss is remote.

	Goodwill – During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized goodwill as a result of acquisitions discussed in the Acquisitions footnote. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America the Company does not amortize goodwill. These principles require the Company to periodically perform tests for goodwill impairment, at least annually, or sooner if evidence of possible impairment arises. The Company evaluated the goodwill for impairment as of September 30, 2014. Based on the evaluation made, the Company concluded that no impairment of goodwill was necessary.
	Goodwill, as of September 30 consisted of the following:

Notes to Financial Statements
Subsequent Events	The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements were issued.  Subsequent to September 30, 2014, the following events occurred:
	On November 26, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “G2 Agreement”) to purchase from the existing Shareholders of G2 all issued and outstanding shares and equity interests of G2 (collectively the “Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to CAD$4.6 million (the “G2 Acquisition”), of which CAD$2.0 million was paid in cash to the Shareholders on the Closing Date. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the remainder of the purchase price will be paid as follows: (i) CAD$600,000 will be paid to the Shareholders in shares of Common Stock of which one-half of the shares will be issued on the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date and the remaining one-half will be issued on the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date; and (ii) the remaining CAD$2.0 million will be paid to the Shareholders in shares of Common Stock periodically, over the course the two-year period beginning on the Closing Date, upon the achievement of certain milestones set forth in the G2 Agreement. The G2 Agreement also provides for customary representations, warranties and covenants, including provisions for indemnification, and is subject to customary closing conditions. Following the G2 Acquisition, G2’s executive leadership and employees will be integrated with the Company but will operate from G2’s existing offices in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The Company issued 38,499 shares of Common Stock subsequent to September 30, 2014 in connection to this acquisition. As of the date that these consolidated financial statements were issued, the Company was in the process of determining the value of assets and liabilities acquired in connection to this acquisition.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SecureAlert, Inc. (DBA Track Group) and its subsidiaries. Additionally, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company formed a Chilean subsidiary and sold Midwest Monitoring & Surveillance, Inc. and Court Programs, Inc. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Company acquired two additional subsidiaries (see Note 3 “Acquisitions” below). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements	The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, certain assumptions related to the recoverability of intangible and long-lived assets, and fair market values of certain assets and liabilities.
Business Combinations	Business combinations are accounted for under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (ASC 805-10), which requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the contingent consideration is recorded at its probable fair value at the acquisition date. Any changes in fair value after the acquisition date are accounted for as measurement-period adjustments if they pertain to additional information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date and that we obtained during the measurement period. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration resulting from events after the acquisition date, such as performance measures, are recognized in earnings.
Foreign currency translation	The Chilean Peso and Israeli New Shekel are the functional currencies of Track Group – Chile and Track Group – Israel. Their respective balance sheets have been translated into USD at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Their respective statements of operations have been translated into USD using the average exchange rates prevailing during the periods of each statement. The corresponding translation adjustments are part of accumulated other comprehensive income and are shown as part of shareholders’ equity.
	Goodwill represents costs in excess of purchase price over the fair value of the assets of businesses acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets.
Other Intangible Assets	Other intangible assets principally consist of patents, royalty purchase agreements, developed technology acquired, customer relationships, trade name and capitalized website development costs.  The Company accounts for other intangible assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and does not amortize intangible assets with indefinite lives.  The Company’s intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives which range from two to ten years.  The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate possible impairment.
Fair Value of Financial Statements	The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for accrued liabilities and debt obligations approximate fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations approximate fair value as the interest rates approximate market interest rates.
Concentration of Credit Risk	In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers and requires no collateral. Accordingly, the Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition.
	The Company had sales to entities which represent more than 10 percent of total revenues as follows for the years ended September 30:
		2014			%			2013		%
	Customer A	$	-			0	%	$	5,252,960		33	%
	Customer B	$	1,501,940			12	%	$	1,622,327		10	%
	Customer C	$	1,431,854			12	%	$	1,514,581		9	%
	No other customer represented more than 10 percent of the Company’s total revenues for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 or 2013.
	Concentration of credit risk associated with the Company’s total and outstanding accounts receivable as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are shown in the table below:
		2014			%			2013		%
	Customer A	$	-			0	%	$	892,897		24	%
	Customer B	$	499,040			13	%	$	732,163		20	%
	Customer C	$	419,523			11	%	$	887,233		24	%
	Based upon the expected collectability of its accounts receivable, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. Subsequent to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, the Company received $387,483 from Customer B and $518,137 from Customer C for a total of $905,620.
Cash Equivalents	Cash equivalents consist of investments with original maturities to the Company of three months or less.  The Company has cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company had $10,572,702 and $3,128,187 of cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. The allowance is estimated by management based on certain assumptions and variables, including the customer’s financial condition, age of the customer’s receivables and changes in payment histories.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when cash is received.  A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance has not been received by the Company within its normal terms.  Interest income is not recorded on trade receivables that are past due, unless that interest is collected.
Note Receivable	Notes receivable are carried at the face amount of each note plus respective accrued interest receivable, less received payments.  The Company does not typically carry notes receivable in the course of its regular business, but had entered into an agreement with one of its customers during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.  Payments are under the note are recorded as they are received and are immediately offset against any outstanding accrued interest before they are applied against the outstanding principal balance on the respective note.  The note requires monthly payments of $15,000 and matures in May 2014.  The note is currently in default and accrues interest at a rate of 17% per annum. As of September 30, 2014, the outstanding balance of the note was $156,323 and $15,211 of accrued interest.
Inventory	Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost or market.  Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.  Market is determined based on the estimated net realizable value, which generally is the item selling price.  Inventory is periodically reviewed in order to identify obsolete or damaged items or impaired values.  The Company impaired its inventory by $153,633 and $211,555 during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Inventory consists of raw materials that are used in the manufacturing of ReliAlert™, Shadow, and other tracking devices.  Completed ReliAlert™ and other tracking devices are reflected in Monitoring Equipment.  As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, inventory consisted of the following:
		2014			2013
	Raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventory	$	1,471,764		$	615,144
	Reserve for damaged or obsolete inventory		(223,500	)		(148,043	)
	Total inventory, net of reserves	$	1,248,264		$	467,101
Property and Equipment	Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization are determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, typically three to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed while renewals and improvements are capitalized.
	Property and equipment consisted of the following as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively:
		2014			2013
	Equipment, software and tooling	$	2,571,450		$	2,002,576
	Automobiles		33,466			33,466
	Leasehold improvements		1,294,386			127,162
	Furniture and fixtures		253,466			247,218
	Total property and equipment before accumulated depreciation		4,152,768			2,410,423
	Accumulated depreciation		(2,292,521	)		(2,092,221	)
	Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation	$	1,860,247		$	318,201
	Property and equipment to be disposed of is reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell and any gains or losses are included in the results of operations. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company disposed of net property and equipment of $3,710 and $4,740, respectively.
	Depreciation expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $276,355 and $231,853, respectively.
Monitoring Equipment	The Company began leasing monitoring equipment to agencies for offender tracking in April 2006 under operating lease arrangements.  The monitoring equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of three years. Monitoring equipment as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:
		2014			2013
	Monitoring equipment	$	3,166,217		$	2,420,042
	Less: accumulated amortization		(1,251,551	)		(1,183,346	)
	Monitoring equipment,  net of accumulated depreciation	$	1,914,666		$	1,236,696
	Amortization expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $844,172 and $1,230,293, respectively.  These expenses were classified as a cost of revenues.
	Monitoring equipment to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell.  During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company disposed and impaired lease monitoring equipment and parts of $209,757 and $296,526, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized $220,318 of impairment expense for future impairment of monitoring equipment during the year ended September 30, 2014. These impairment costs were included in cost of revenues.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill	The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of goodwill, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.  Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets.
Revenue Recognition	The Company’s revenue has historically been from two sources: (i) monitoring services; and (ii) product sales.
	Monitoring Services
	Monitoring services include two components: (a) lease contracts in which the Company provides monitoring services and leases devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (b) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.
	The Company typically leases its devices under one-year contracts with customers that opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.  However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at any time with 30 days’ notice.  Under the Company’s standard leasing contract, the leased device becomes billable on the date of activation or 7 to 21 days from the date the device is assigned to the lessee, and remains billable until the device is returned to the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on leased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.  In those circumstances in which the Company receives payment in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.
	Product Sales
	The Company may sell its monitoring devices in certain situations to its customers. In addition, the Company may sell equipment in connection with the building out and setting up a monitoring center on behalf of its customers. The Company recognizes product sales revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer and the customer cannot return the devices or equipment, prices are fixed or determinable (including sales not being made outside the normal payment terms) and collection is reasonably assured. When purchasing products (such as TrackerPAL® and ReliAlert™ devices) from the Company, customers may, but are not required to, enter into monitoring service contracts with the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on monitoring services for customers that have previously purchased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.
	The Company sells and installs standalone tracking systems that do not require ongoing monitoring by the Company.  The Company has experience in component installation costs and direct labor hours related to this type of sale and can typically reasonably estimate costs, therefore the Company recognizes revenue over the period in which the installation services are performed using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for material installations.  The Company typically uses labor hours or costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated labor hours or costs to fulfill the contract as the most reliable and meaningful measure that is available for determining a project’s progress toward completion.  The Company evaluates its estimated labor hours and costs and determines the estimated gross profit or loss on each installation for each reporting period.  If it is determined that total cost estimates are likely to exceed revenues, the Company accrues the estimated losses immediately. All amounts billed have been earned.
	Multiple Element Arrangements
	The majority of the Company’s revenue transactions do not have multiple elements. However, on occasion, the Company enters into revenue transactions that have multiple elements. These may include different combinations of products or monitoring services that are included in a single billable rate. These products or monitoring services are delivered over time as the customer utilizes the Company's services. For revenue arrangements that have multiple elements, the Company considers whether the delivered devices have standalone value to the customer, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered monitoring services, which is generally determined by surveying the price of competitors’ comparable monitoring services, and the customer does not have a general right of return. Based on these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of devices separately from the monitoring services provided to the customer as the products or monitoring services are delivered.
	Other Matters
	The Company considers an arrangement with payment terms longer than the Company’s normal terms not to be fixed or determinable, and revenue is recognized when the fee becomes due.  Normal payment terms for the sale of monitoring services and products are due upon receipt to 30 days.  The Company sells its devices and services directly to end users and to distributors.  Distributors do not have general rights of return.  Also, distributors have no price protection or stock protection rights with respect to devices sold to them by the Company.  Generally, title and risk of loss pass to the buyer upon delivery of the devices.
	The Company estimates its product returns based on historical experience and maintains an allowance for estimated returns, which is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable and revenue.
	Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included as part of net revenues.  The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.
Geographical Information	The Company recognized revenues from international sources from its products and monitoring services.  Revenues are attributed to the geographic areas based on the location of the customers purchasing and leasing the products.  The revenues recognized by geographic area for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, are as follows:
		Fiscal Years Ended
		September 30,
		2014			2013
	United States of America	$	9,268,430		$	7,179,043
	Latin American countries		-			5,252,960
	Caribbean countries and commonwealths		2,933,794			3,136,908
	Other foreign countries		59,974			72,151
	Total	$	12,262,198		$	15,641,062
	The long-lived assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, used in the generation of revenues by geographic area as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, were as follows:
		Net Property and Equipment						Net Monitoring Equipment
		2014			2013			2014		2013
	United States of America	$	611,095		$	318,201		$	1,645,137	$	878,823
	Latin American countries		1,168,406			-			237,667		-
	Caribbean countries and commonwealths		-			-			-		351,138
	Other foreign countries		80,746			-			31,862		6,735
	Total	$	1,860,247		$	318,201		$	1,914,666	$	1,236,696
Research and Development Costs	All expenditures for research and development are charged to expense as incurred. These expenditures in 2014 and 2013 were to further develop our TrackerPAL and ReliAlert portfolio of products and services, as well as other research and development costs incurred by a new subsidiary acquired during fiscal year 2014. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, research and development expenses were $1,605,662 and $987,934, respectively.
Advertising Costs	The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.  Advertising expense for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $60,505 and $30,782, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation	The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.
Income Taxes	The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences are expected to be settled or realized.  Deferred income tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary.
	The tax effects from uncertain tax positions can be recognized in the financial statements, provided the position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized, upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company applied the foregoing accounting standard to all of its tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open as of the date of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
	The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax issues as components of other noninterest expense. As of September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, the Company did not record a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Net Loss Per Common Share	Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
	Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.
	Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrnats to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock.  As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, there were 347,251 and 604,006 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  The Common Stock equivalents outstanding as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 consisted of the following:
		2014			2013
	Conversion of Series D Preferred stock		-			14,040
	Exercise of outstanding Common Stock options and warrants		305,251			427,966
	Exercise and conversion of outstanding Series D Preferred stock warrants		42,000			162,000
	Total Common Stock equivalents		347,251			604,006
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which addresses the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. This guidance requires the netting of unrecognized tax benefits against a deferred tax asset for a loss or other carryforward that would apply in settlement of the uncertain tax positions. ASU 2013-11 will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Early adoption is permitted. Since ASU 2013-11 only impacts financial statement disclosure requirements for unrecognized tax benefits, the Company does not expect the adoption of the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard sets forth management’s responsibility to evaluate, each reporting period, whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and if so, to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating this new standard and after adoption, we will incorporate this guidance in our assessment of going concern.
