Transportation

Transportation Airports, transit areas and all organisations working in the transport sector have to provide security based on a reliable, rigorous system. What is at stake is the safety of their staff and contractors, but also of all the passengers and members of the public who use this kind of infrastructure.

Our flexible range of controllers and our secure IT solutions are specifically developed to protect all your buildings against a wide range of threats. Thanks to our years of experience, we have been able to identify all the problems installing security systems in your organisation may raise, and here we look at a few points likely to affect you directly.

Securing customs controls

The Schengen agreements have allowed companies to export themselves more easily, and since the borders were opened it has never been easier to travel in Europe than it is now. However, customs centres remain active, and, like other infrastructure, it is vital to secure them properly. Our Unipass and Unigard solutions working together offer an unparalleled level of protection. Unipass secures access to sensitive areas and ensures that only your own staff and/or the security services can access strategic parts of your installations. Uniguard tracks any abnormalities and, where necessary, integrates the latest video and anti-intruder technologies to monitor all sensitive or risky areas at a glance.

Terrorism and associated problems

Unfortunately, the threat of terrorism has never been as high as in recent years, and in many cases airports and other transport infrastructure are the prime targets. Our access control and alarm management solutions enable your security staff to view and analyse all anomalies within a few seconds.

Crime and violence

This category encompasses many issues ranging from simple vandalism and antisocial behaviour to robbery and pickpocketing. Combined with the latest video technology, our solutions can monitor your infrastructure and the surrounding area. Moreover, these systems will undoubtedly have a deterrent effect which will drastically reduce the temptation to carry out such acts.

Securing sensitive areas

Using our Unipass solution, you can assign different security levels to each sensitive area in your buildings based on the day, time or type of person accessing them. Our software can be administered directly from your security department, and, where appropriate, linked to existing databases. This means you can quickly add, change or remove personnel records or the access rules allocated to them.

Working time management

It is often difficult to calculate working hours and fees for all personnel. However, with our Unitime solution, you can manage all your staff with a few clicks. Our software offers a high level of functionality that will enable you to manage a variety of schedules, plan all kinds of tasks, check absences immediately, modify contracts, supervise several different categories of employees, check remote sign-ins and produce statistical reports automatically.

Monitoring contractors

Airports and distribution centres typically employ a large number of outside companies, whose employees are subject to the same security rules as internal staff. Using our Unipass solution, you can create and register a new person in your database, even temporarily, in a few seconds. In addition, the fast transfer rates of our controllers enable you to change access rights for sensitive areas extremely quickly.

A truly integrated solution

As you can see throughout this section, IDtech integrates a large number of third-party solutions to make sure it can always offer the best. For example, you could increase the level of protection for your staff by installing biometric identification systems, which guarantee that only authorised people can access protected areas. They also eliminate all risk of fraud by making it impossible to exchange credentials which remains a major problem in large organisations.

Moreover, our system is sheltered from external technical faults. For example, our controllers can be equipped with back-up batteries which will take over if the power fails, keeping the whole system powered up. If there is a network communication failure, the controllers can store a practically unlimited number of transactions in their on-board memory. The data will be faithfully relayed to the server as soon as communication is restored. Not to mention that using a redundancy system, a second server can take over if an error occurs, ensuring full functionality of the system 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In short, using our software suite, hardware range and many integration possibilities, you can always be sure you are protected.
