Integrated Security Systems That Enable Safety And Protection
A nation’s borders, whether on land or sea, must be secured to protect civilian safety and maintain societal stability.
Police and Border Force personnel need to protect their countries from threats emanating from outside the borders.
Our Border Security systems offer physical safety and protection to officers at official and unofficial border crossings, as well as advanced electronic monitoring equipment in these areas. All elements are integrated into a centralised intelligence system in a Command & Control centre, offering extensive situational awareness throughout the border.
Surveillance Sentry Tower (SST)
An integrated set of sensors offers infrared (IR), visual, signals intelligence (SIGINT), and additional surveillance functionalities for the border area, both at local and central Command & Control tiers. The SST sensor platforms are available in two configurations: Fixed and Mobile.
SST Grande Fixed
Features a complete array of sensor technology contained within a uniquely designed ballistic-proof workspace, created by Kibo Cabins in the EU. The cabins provide NIJ Level IV protection, which is comparable to NATO B7 standards, effectively stopping multiple .30 caliber rounds while ensuring a comfortable, air-conditioned working environment from which to manage the border site.
The pneumatic mast extends to a height of 10 meters, providing a platform for visual camera feeds of the surrounding environment, thermal imaging capabilities, and communication links for seismic and movement detection, as well as handheld biometric devices. Additional sensor equipment is installed, with the cabin serving as a secure base for these systems and operators.
A solar array covering the roof, along with battery charging capabilities, ensures that the surveillance equipment operates continuously. A diesel generator is available as a backup power source to power the air conditioning.
SST Grande Mobile
Is a specialised mobile platform designed to accommodate all the SST surveillance equipment, featuring a 10-meter pneumatic mast. With a setup time of less than 30 minutes, this unit is quickly deployable and versatile, suitable for various situations ranging from pop-up border inspection posts to managing civil unrest. An awning provides shade for the operational area, allowing operators to view live camera footage while it is simultaneously recorded and streamed to Command & Control centres.
Equipped with unmanned multi-rotor UAV systems, SST Grande Mobile units offer infrared (IR) and electro-optical (EO) surveillance capabilities high in the sky. Additionally, a dedicated tether system enables the UAVs to maintain a fixed altitude position of up to 100 meters for extended durations.
Flight missions can be pre-programmed from the central Command & Control centre or free-flown by the UAV pilot in response to incident response. The mobile SSTs are also equipped with solar charging capabilities and a backup generator if needed to ensure continued functionality.
Identity Checks
Our sophisticated biometric identity capture tools allow migration over a border to be monitored and controlled, whether this is on a land border, in an airport or seaport. Interfacing with local and external terrorist watchlists gives the ability to flag and detain suspects. With the on-device matching of cached frequent travellers, quick passage is facilitated securely.
Incorporating the most advanced suite of multimodal biometrics and video analytics ever. Vigilate’s ROC algorithms deliver game-changing identity-proofing and threat detection powered by computer vision and AI.
Coupled with long-term training and mentoring, KSL’s technical solutions can put you leagues ahead in the domestic war on terrorism.
Overwatch C2
The integrated Overwatch C2 platform for endless surveillance and border security assists law enforcement, counter-terrorism and border security agencies centrally manage their resources. Our advanced PSIM (Physical Security Information Management) software was created for Command & Control (C2) centres to offer exceptional situational awareness, giving real-time identification and classification of targets and continuous monitoring of all threats within the border and critical infrastructure area.
With all this data, a C2 centre can analyse, combine data, and connect events/incidents to establish and uphold comprehensive situational awareness. This, in return, assists in promoting the proper and rapid response to possible or emerging threats according to the chain of command protocols.
Containing a true 3D engine and a database central core, the system is fully scalable and deployed on resilient hardware, either on-premises or hybrid-distributed. Unlimited 3D buildings and sensor objects can be added, all geo-relational. Sensor inputs can be part of the Overwatch range or integrated third-party components to maximize both flexibility and ROI.
