Maritime surveillance is the maintenance of security in the sea by conducting patrols, detecting the presence of enemies and locating them. The surveillance is done by the navy forces and the air-force, the navy use ships and submarines to patrol the sea whereas the air-force use the aircraft to patrol the sea. The maintenance of the sea was deemed importance internationally after the terrorist attack of the Times tower by terrorists and the rise in pirate attacks in the sea who target the trade goods’ ships. They attack the ship,steal the goods and torture the ships’ crew to death.

The patrols are conducted in the sea and it is intense at the hotspots or terror attack. The hotspots are normally along the trade routes as the ships import or export goods to or from the country. The other places of interest are, along the coastlines of the sea, the areas of economic activities near the sea such as; hotels,tourists’ destinations, fishing ships and shopping centers. The extend the patrol to those ares because the enemies may hide in those areas as well when they escape from the sea. They should also have tight security around their camps and vessels which are other targets of attack. (more…)

If you’re set to enter a hostile environment then a GPS Tracker Wrist Watch is a good option. It essentially lets your loved ones know exactly where you are, whilst it works with the cooperation of GSM/GPRS network.

Of course, it’s also a convenient accessory with the date and time displayed, yet it requires Low energy consumption. This gadget provides single positioning and continuous tracking, so your movement can be tracked to the spot at all times!

Whether you’re heading up Mount Everest, visiting an urban canyon or pushing yourself to the limits on a cross country bike ride, this watch will ensure somebody knows where you are if anything was to go wrong, and it’s available at a very reasonable price.

All around the world, terrorists are using remote control improvised explosive devices (RCIEDs) to cause large numbers of casualties. High-quality IED jammers can significantly reduce those losses. In short, these devices are necessary for protecting human lives. Be that as it may, it is important first to understand what these devices are before delving into its numerous benefits and uses.

Most homemade bombs or improvised electronic devices are made using conventional military explosives. In other words, an artillery round or another explosive is connected to a detonating mechanism. Ultimately, a command from a remote control is necessary to activate this device. IED jammers work by saturating a measured area with electromagnetic energy. The electromagnetic energy helps to neutralize the remote control activated IED. Usually, it cuts off communication between the IED and the remote control.  (more…)

There has been a bit of an influx of mobile security applications, but some people argue that the military is asking for trouble, especially considering the threat from cyber attacks.

Mobile security applications are designed to give the soldiers on the ground more situation awareness, allowing them to operate more efficiently, however cyber stacks can cost soldiers their lives, so is it really worth the risk?

Security breaches happen, but the fact is modern-day soldiers are trained to perform with and without technology, and no soldier will ever need to rely upon a mobile device. There’s no guarantee that applications can be 100% secure, but if they regularly help the military perform well, then surely there’s no reason why they can’t be used going forward in the future.

Key safes are common in commercial properties with many different rooms and outbuildings, like warehouses, factories, construction sites and large shops.

A key safe is essentially a safe design to store and organise different keys for the various rooms, and it means that during the working day and out of hours, keys cannot be taken or copied. Many modern key safes benefit from electronic access, such as keypads or touch screen displays while they’re mainly constructed of strong steel.

Storing all your keys in one locked room is just is not enough today and it’s certainly better to be safe than sorry. This is why having a key safe is a must, especially if you’re looking to maintain high levels of security for each of the important storage rooms, while only trusted members of management should be allowed to access the safe.

A workplace may be a small office, a large factory or a large retail shop, but no matter what size or shape your workplace is, it’s important to make sure that it’s secure.

Strong, steel doors may not look pleasing on the eye but they’ll provide a great deal of protection, while door and window guard rails are also very beneficial in terms of security. CCTV can deter theft and burglary, while it provides crucial evidence in such events.

Another popular system is an alarm system as well as a pin code entry system. Before you design your workplace, it’s important to make sure you’ve considered security, not just to protect your products, but to protect your employees and customers too.

Maritime guard helps to protect ships and planes that fly across the ocean or lakes from possible security threats. Mostly marine security focuses on the safety of planes, ships and their crew members at sea, and when arriving at the ports. Maritime organisations helps to ensure that sea vessels are well guarded and crew members takes the responsibility of watching out for possible threats and issues that may cause mayhem. With maritime guard, sea vessels and planes flying across the ocean can be safeguarded from possible terror attacks, ship hijacking and icebergs that may cause destruction to ships.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (COFDM) technology is a modulation system that separates a single carrier signal into thousands of signal carriers at the same time. The signals are distributed perpendicularly to each other so they do not disrupt each other. As the name suggests, COFDM Technology divides a broad band channel into a number of unique narrow subcarriers/sub-channels.

There are various types of motion detectors, and not all of them are as effective as others at securing your home. Different types have been designed for different purposes, and although all of them will be effective, some will be more likely to produce false positives, which is a problem for alarm systems.

One of the most popular types of motion detectors are infra-red light sensors. Infra-red is a light which is invisible to human eyes, so it should catch people off guard, so long as they don’t have any infra-red sensing equipment themselves. They work by streaming a line of infra-red light between two points, creating a feedback loop. If anything enters the space between the two points, then the loop is broken, and the alarm is then triggered. This is hardly a fool-proof system, but it is unlikely to be alerted by anything you don’t want to be alerted by.

Alternatively you have sensors which monitor their immediate acoustic fields for any changes. These can produce false-positives with greater frequency, but provided the circumstances are well matched to their function then you will have something which works amazingly well.

With the ever changing and adapting business comes a constant responsibility to adapt to ensure that it protects its customers, data and assets.
With any size company this is important, but the larger the company, the larger the target. This is why it is crucial for companies to review their security across the board.
The CEO’s and the board of directors are responsible for ensure that this happens on the regular basis, especially with the increase of cyber-attacks.
They need to ensure that they are aware of who manages the different types of security from cyber to physical protection like CCTV etc. They need to be aware of their most crucial information/assets and what the ramifications of this being taken or damaged would be.

The other crucial aspect of a review is the ability to look back and assess the success and failures in the company’s security systems and confirm if this has been acknowledged and “fixed”.
