Airside Security: Perimeter Protection For Airports
I have mentioned in this space before that I have the opportunity to travel a lot and that this has afforded me an excellent view into how airports are run. But my perspective is not limited to their inner workings. In fact, from my office here in Montreal, I can see the O6L and 24R runways at the P.E. Trudeau airport. This means that, every once in a while, I get to watch these feats of engineering and technology move through the air. And I am reminded of the incredible precision required to get so many planes safely through take-off and landing every day. At the same time, I also know that any disruption on the airfield —no matter how small— can delay flights or threaten security.

Multiple Senstar Systems Installed To Protect Major US Airport
Senstar announce it has delivered the perfect perimeter intrusion detection (PIDS) solution to protect the perimeter of one of North America?s largest cargo airports. Due to the facility?s unique perimeter security requirements, Senstar combined multiple technologies to form a comprehensive system that effectively protects the airport and keeps the nuisance alarm rate (NAR) low. With a busy road running along one side of the airport?s five-mile perimeter, and people using the airport?s fence to lean on while waiting at bus stops, a fence-mounted solution alone would have been an NAR nightmare.
