By investing in the right security technologies, we can address many of the concerns that surround the transportation industry.
Transportation, whether it’s of passengers or cargo, certainly looks much different today than it did even twenty years ago. Between evolving airline policies, rideshare services, and even automated transportation, the transportation industry is constantly going through industry changes. One thing remains consistent however: the importance of security technologies in protecting transportation assets as well as people. Read on to discover four security technologies intended to ramp up the security within the transportation industry.
1. Vehicle Undercarriage Scanners
Security experts agree that scanning the undercarriage of road vehicles is essential in proper security protocols. The right kind of scanner, such as the Intelligent Vehicle Undercarriage Scanner, can immediately detect any foreign objects or anomalies that may pose a threat. Alerts are provided to security experts who are then able to take the proper steps to secure the area and further evaluate the risks.
2. Train Undercarriage Scanners
Whether they are passenger trains or cargo trains, there is no denying that railways are still an essential element of the transportation industry. When it comes to security technologies, the Intelligent Train Undercarriage Scanner is capable of immediately detecting any foreign objects or even maintenance hazards that can cause serious damage to rail facilities.
3. License Plate Analytics
License plates are an effective way of quickly tracking and authenticating vehicles. The Intelligent License Plate Analytics System from Gatekeeper is capable of superior image quality and advanced character recognition, meaning it works in a number of applications where tracking vehicles may be necessary. The system can also be connected to law enforcement reporting systems so that any vehicles of interest are flagged on the operator terminal.
4. Driver Cameras
Driver cameras have certainly come a long way and no longer require the constant use of a human operator. An Intelligent Vehicle Occupant Detection System is capable of securing everything from commercial facilities, border crossings, and airports so that security officers can determine who is inside of a vehicle—even through tinted glass, during night time conditions, or in extreme weather.
