Indonesia is a country that has a rich diversity of biological natural resources. In the sense of abundance in question is the natural capital that is owned as a unitary state. The natural capital plays a role in supporting food, economy, and the integrity of the state of Indonesia as a large country. For this reason, good environmental conditions are represented by the role of the forest as its basic foundation. But as civilization develops, the position of the environment which is the natural capital continues to be over-taken, especially in the forest ecosystem itself. The existence of the forest is flanked by the surrounding civilizations that are hungry for needs, both basic needs and tertiary needs such as social recognition. The high demand for these needs makes the forest as a source of commodities increasingly threatened. Especially in conservation forest areas that are protected by law but there are still threats of hunting, land clearing, encroachment, and illegal logging in their field practices. The difficulty of maintaining conservation areas in practice requires the design of effective forest security systems and products given the vast area of forests and the small number of forest rangers owned by Indonesia, which are accommodated by product design. Forest threat activity was done by tools. By detecting the tools with metal detection concept, the security of the forest will improve by effectivity wich the information about forest threat will be delivered by the design
