SubscribePassenger and employee safety and smooth operations are of mission-critical importance to the success of any airport.
For these reasons, airports are continually looking for ways to increase their ability to mitigate and control the risk of security threats in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.
The Visual Defence 3C software platform is a comprehensive security operations management system providing clients with one system that addresses several issues related to the mitigation and control of risk and can provide a real return-on-investment through:
- Risk Mitigation and Control
- Technology Convergence
- Vendor Convergence
- System Convergence
- Applications Convergence
Risk Mitigation and Control
3C provides operators all relevant risk information within a central system, creating fast, intelligent event response by reducing the risk and time associated with gathering and interpreting data from individual systems. One of the unique features of 3C is its ability to incorporate pre-defined "best practice" procedures directly into the system. This removes manual decision-making requirements from the operators, reducing the risk associated with human error in high pressure, emergency situations.
The unique Process Flow tool included in 3C allows clients to easily integrate their highly confidential policies and procedures into the system themselves through the creation of flowcharts based on event conditions. The flow chart can be configured to include automatically generated responses as well as manual responses. Manual responses are built as "if" statements. For example, if an operator detects smoke on the video after receiving a fire alarm event notification, the next step will be different than if the operator did not detect smoke.
Technology Convergence
3C provides clients the ability to integrate IP technologies with existing analogue components, providing customers with a cost-effective transition to digital infrastructure.
Vendor Convergence
3C is built on an open architecture approach that allows customers the freedom and flexibility to choose vendors with the best-of-breed solution to meet their particular needs and/or tie one or more vendors into a single solution.
Systems Convergence
3C is a comprehensive approach to security management that gives customers the ability to customize a solution that will provide a single point of management (one GUI) for a limitless number of subsystems including video, access control, fire alarm, building management.
Convergence of multiple systems from multiple locations provides ease-of-management. 3C unites mapping, video, and alarm management functionality and relays the information on an easy-to-use triple screen display that includes a video and asset management screen, alarm management and response screen, and multi-level mapping screen.
Applications Convergence
3C is a far-reaching enterprise solution that gives customers faster return-on-investment by using existing security assets for multiple applications like security, marketing and operations.
3C provides the ability for multiple stakeholders to use the system based on priority rights. For example, the airport operator, airlines, customs, etc. can use a single camera to monitor a common area and all have the ability to view the video. This provides significant cost-savings and revenue-generating ability.
