Antaira Technologies recently partnered with a Utah-based airspace security and defense company to help implement a digital 3D protective shield to counter illegal entry by drones into a restricted airfield. Because connectivity was critical to the system’s responsiveness, Antaira LMX-1202G-SFP-T Gigabit-managed Ethernet switches were deployed inside multiple tall pillars surrounding the protected airspace. The switches link together dozens of IP video surveillance cameras, computers, and drone detection radar systems to the airport’s central control station.
Following a pandemic-exacerbated rise in data breaches and ransomware attacks, Genetec guided public sector organizations on how to reduce cyber vulnerabilities of physical security systems that are often overlooked. IP security cameras and other security devices were put in place to protect people, assets, and environments. But the same network connectivity that enables organizations to monitor operations and update software remotely presents a path into the network for cyber criminals. If they are not sufficiently modern or properly shielded, they can pose significant risk to cybersecurity. An attack that originates in a camera or door controller can find its way through the network to block access to critical applications, lock files for ransom, and steal personal data.

SureView Systems and Calipsa announced the integration of their cloud-based flagship technologies. The integration of Calipsa’s software with SureView’s next-generation physical security information management (PSIM) platform improves the ability of security command centers to manage and respond to video alarm events.
Calipsa’s false alarm reduction software easily integrates with
the SureView PSIM platform and quickly deploys with no on-premises hardware
required. Once a video alarm is triggered on a connected camera, a SureView
server sends video to a Calipsa server, where algorithms look for human and
vehicle movement before returning genuine alarms. Filtering up to 95% of false
alarms significantly reduces the chance of SOC operators missing or being
delayed in their response to an actual event. The filtering process takes about
a second to complete.
