Los edificios por el satélite, compañías del reloj dijeron

Las organizaciones grandes en el Reino Unido se están ofreciendo un nuevo servicio que podría ser el último en la seguridad física - vigilancia del edificio vía el satélite.
El servicio es el trabajo de dos compañías, Scyron y Datasat, que han espiado una necesidad entre multinacionales y agencias de estatal grandes de asegurar edificios y activos alejados remotamente. Scyron provee el elemento del análisis del software, que puede determinar amenaza usando imágenes basadas en los satélites, mientras que Datasat tiene acceso a una red basada en los satélites a la fuente entrada para el uso.
Scyron - which invested in its partner Datasat in July - uses the example of a shipping company watching over its fleet in any part of the world. If suspicious incidents are recorded, the system can adjust bandwidth to ensure the efficient transfer of images back to its monitoring HQ. It can also be tied into biometric and audio security systems as an extra layer.
Such a service doesn’t come cheap, but then again neither does any remote security analysis. The company claims its approach will still save time and money when compared to manual incident analysis.
In addition to maritime and transport, other industries that might be interested include border controls, utilities, and even the military, though the latter might be expected to have their own systems in place for such security.
“The system gives a solution to the headache of permanently manned controls at numerous locations across the world. It is more targeted as it only alerts to suspicious activity but also in conjunction with satellite – it reaches the parts which others just cannot reach,” said Phil Emmel, Datasat’s managing director.
What the company describes as an ‘entry-level’ system would set an organisation back 50,000 euros, but an accurate cost would depend on the number and type of sites being secured, the company said. The service was demonstrated at the Alarmes, Protection Securite Expo, held this week in Paris.
