Security Intelligence Solutions for Airports

Global risks and day-to-day challenges put passenger safety and the travel experience in jeopardy. With more technologies entering the airport environment a wealth of data creates more complexity, making risk management and security operations more challenging. Social media and smart phone inputs can bring latent intelligence to the forefront and present a more complete view of any situation.

The safety and security of passengers, while maintaining operational continuity, is top priority. Situational Awareness Platform  for airports can capture information from a variety of systems to provide actionable intelligence to meet the task head on. Situational Awareness Platform provides unprecedented flexibility for airports looking to enable security with operational continuity and provides a platform for effective collaboration among airport stakeholders. Such platforms include.

Comprehensive video surveillance solutions — end-to-end video platform features a wide variety of cameras, smart video analytics, an advanced video management system and an event management platform.

Real-time situation management and investigation in one — unified and common situation picture allows for better decision-making, faster and more effective response or investigation.

Open, scalable and extendable architecture — can integrate with existing legacy systems, such as access control, identity and compliance management, and industry-centric technology such as ground radar, while centrally managing multiple sites.

Advanced analytics for early warning — helps detect threats early and gain real-time awareness.

Automatic decision support — helps embed a consistent procedure among security operators and minimizes human error, optimizing resource utilization.

Top Airport solutions include:

Situational Awareness Platform — designed from the ground up with transportation security in mind, the Situational Awareness Platform offers a broad and deep understanding of routine or emergency situations. The platform captures and consolidates information from a variety of security, safety, and information systems into a single command-and-control center to rapidly locate on a map potential threats to airport safety. The solution can correlate and analyze the information and generate alerts on irregular events to help pinpoint higher priority events and allow operators to view the information in one place and act upon it. Through a single pane of glass, compelling visual displays received from video surveillance, passenger smartphones and other information systems can help security operators quickly gain context and geo-location of events. Using pre-defined automated standard operating procedures, consistent policies and procedures can be enforced, forces can be dispatched and monitored and a quicker response time can be achieved. Situational Awareness Platform can address a range of airport needs, from operational compliance to real-time situation management and forensic investigation. By integrating systems and sensors into a unified situational awareness platform, security operations can be made more effective and efficient.

Comprehensive Video Surveillance Solution — end to end video platform features a wide variety of cameras suitable for every environmental condition, smart video analytics and an advanced video management platform. Enterprise VMS offers extensive flexibility in network deployment and integration with cameras, encoders, and third-party applications. Video can be shared with cooperating entities and viewed in a variety of formats, from command center video walls to iOS or Android mobile devices.

• Video Analytics for Business, Security & Surveillance — with a full complement of video analytics, we can enable the airport on multiple fronts. Our business analytics can watch for trends of passenger traffic throughout the facility, security analytics can watch for unusual or security-sensitive behaviour, such as objects left behind, and security analytics can identify or search for suspicious faces or vehicle license plates when the identity of suspects is already known, and more.
•  Public Safety Media Recorder — able to capture and record voice audio from emergency calls, police radio, text, telematics, and screen data, Public Safety Media Recorder helps your Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) interactions improve response while adhering to policies and procedures. Incidents can be reconstructed with simultaneous playback and integration with security video and event data.
• Integration with Multiple Leading Sensors — We select reliable vendors with leading technology to enhance awareness and risk management. Its open architecture can integrate with new and legacy systems to receive alerts from a multitude of sensors.
• Leading Mobile Location Tracking — detect, monitor and analyze information from mobile devices over wireless and wi-fi networks to automatically identify blacklisted numbers or track suspects.
• Open Source Web and Social Media Intelligence — gain insight on risks developing over social media networks related to airport security to provide early warning alerts and facilitate a timely response.
• Crowdsourcing — allow passengers to report on suspicious activities using a dedicated app on their smartphone which also allows the streaming of video and images to the central command and control center.
