Keep People, Goods and Operations Safe and Moving

Transportation infrastructure and assets represent a vital economic engine for many cities and countries. Providing a safe environment while keeping business running smoothly can be a challenge. Senstar products provide security and improve operational effectiveness at a wide range of sites, including airports, bus and rail systems, ports and harbors, tunnels, and bridges.

Airports

Airport infrastructure and assets are prime targets for vandals, thieves and terrorists. With many key areas requiring different levels of security—entrances and exits, security and immigration checkpoints, customer check-in, parking, external and internal perimeters, cargo areas, and runways and taxiways—there is no one size fits all solution. But with its broad product portfolio, Senstar can secure the different areas using the most effective technology, taking into account their differing operational requirements.

Rail and Transit Systems

With public transportation becoming more and more important within and between cities, the importance of protecting passengers and infrastructure is becoming of higher priority.  Whether onboard, at stations and platforms or other related facilities, keeping passengers and assets safe are key to rail and transit system operations.

Senstar Solutions

Scalable, Cost-Effective Video Management

The security and operational requirements of public transportation systems like airports, subways and buses typically result in large camera counts. Not only must the video management software be able to scale up to meet these requirements, it needs to make efficient use of server hardware to keep costs down. The Senstar Symphony video, security and information management system, deployed at some of the world’s largest international airports, has proven its cost-effectiveness by minimizing the number of required servers and simplifying administration.

Perimeter Security

Senstar perimeter intrusion detection systems protect airports and transportation facilities worldwide. Our fence-mounted sensors (cable or fiber optic) are cost-effective solutions that reduce operational costs associated with maintaining a secure perimeter, while buried sensors can monitor sensitive areas that are not fenced in. In addition, the Senstar LM100 hybrid perimeter intrusion and intelligent lighting system is International Dark-Sky (IDA) compliant, making it suitable for use in providing both intrusion detection and perimeter lighting near airports.

Detect Suspicious Packages

Increase public safety by automatically detecting suspicious packages left unattended on platforms and in other public areas. In addition to alerting security personnel, video of the event is recorded to assist in post-incident investigations. The same analytic can also be used to ensure fire exits remain clear of objects.

Identify Persons of Interest

Deploy face recognition at entrances to detect persons of interest in real-time. Face recognition can also be used for post-incident investigation via intelligent video searches (including the ability to search across multiple cameras). Senstar Face Recognition is designed for real-world security applications, regardless of changes in camera viewpoint, expression, facial hair, glasses, or poor lighting conditions.

Intelligent Indoor and Outdoor Tracking

Senstar uses separate people and vehicle tracking video analytics for indoor and outdoor applications, ensuring maximum performance and avoidance of false alarms generated by non-relevant movement. Unlike simple motion detection, Senstar’s tracking analytics intelligent classify objects based on type (person, vehicle or other) and reject movement caused by shadows, lighting, vegetation, and rain or snow. For transportation applications, this enables the effective implementation of virtual fences and alarm zones (for example, detecting people near tracks or inside secure perimeters).

Integrate Business Operations

To keep planes, trains and buses on time, business processes need to be efficient as possible. Leverage surveillance and security systems with analytics to provide additional intelligence and efficiencies:

  • Monitor crowd sizes in public areas
  • Count people entering or leaving an area
  • Use heat maps analyze traffic flows
  • Track train locations and speed (fiber optic sensors)

Security Inside and Out

Recognizing that different transportation services face different security requirements, Senstar offers a wide range of video management, perimeter intrusion detection, access control, and video analytic solutions. Individually, they provide best-in-class protection; used in combination, they form an integrated, multi-layered solution.
