Addressing the increasing demand for protection of vehicles and convoys against hostile drones, Elbit Systems is introducing ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System, a vehicular configuration of the company’s operational anti-drone protection and neutralization system. Based on the field proven and operational ReDrone system, ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System detects, identifies and neutralizes all types of drones (at any radio frequency) within a radius of several kilometers, providing any vehicle with a 360 degrees protection shield against hostile drones. Suitable for on-the-move or stationary operations, in day and night and in all weather conditions, ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System is offered for all types of military and para-military vehicles. Rapidly deployable, ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System works automatically or manually, with no setup or operator control required for the entire process. Its open architecture enables a full data flow to the vehicular control system and an effective interface with command and control centers. With the detection of a hostile drone, the ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System neutralizes all communications between the drone and its operator including radio, video and GPS signals. The system is also capable of separating a drone’s signals from its operator’s remote control signals in order to locate and track each of them separately. Operational with several armed forces, ReDrone performed dozens of interceptions when deployed as part of the last visit of the Pope to Latin America.

Johnson Controls has recently released CEM Systems AC2000 v10.2, which offers new features such as an enhanced time & attendance application, improved pass design, advanced room booking with access control, and additional features that increase the performance and scope of the AC2000 access control system suite. AC2000 customers maximize their existing security infrastructure by going beyond access control without the need for an additional time & attendance system. AC2000 Time Hub utilizes the existing AC2000 system to provide reliable time keeping, an improved user experience, and helps avoid costly payroll errors, under or over-staffing, and inefficient time recording. Integrated into the AC2000 system, Time Hub is a reporting method for the office manager/ administrator who requires statistics on the entering and exiting of staff. The improved pass design application is another feature of AC2000 v10.2 that provides a more intuitive user interface, more control of badge designs, and features which reduce the configuration time for passes. The advanced room booking feature in AC2000 v10.2 improves resource management, ensuring that only the meeting organizer and invitees can access a meeting room, booked via Outlook®, at the time required. The AC2000 Security Hub command and control application has been enhanced with enterprise map support, a new dashboard to display system metrics, and a new rooms tab for improved operational resource management. Building on the range of video, perimeter detection, and lift interface integrations, AC2000 now offers new interfaces to Samsung™ CCTV, Southwest Microwave perimeter detection, and KONE™ Destination.  

Tyco’s DSC PowerSeries Pro 1.0 eliminates need for wires on sensors or keypads Johnson Controls is introducing its new commercial-grade (EN Grade 3) security system with built-in PowerG long range wireless, 128-bit encryption technology from Tyco. The DSC PowerSeries Pro 1.0 offers cyber protection fea tures and long-range encrypted wireless communications. It is the first commercial intrusion security panel that can handle large commercial installations while eliminating the need for wires on sensors or keypads. “An industry-wide concern is how long it can take to install commercial security systems – too much wiring, multiple repeaters due to low device range and setup can be a hassle,” said Jennifer Doctor, Senior Director of Product Management for Tyco Intrusion Solutions, “We addressed these concerns and designed the DSC PowerSeries Pro with growth opportunities in mind. Dealers are able to easily set up and provide scalable commercial installations without the need to run long wires. As a result, the savings on long wire runs can be substantial.” DSC PowerSeries Pro supports multiple third-party integrations including building management software (BMS) and video access solutions, offering a versatile platform for holistic commercial security. Its on-board Ethernet and modular communicators ensure long-lasting value. DSC PowerSeries Pro also offers a Corbus extender/ power supply, support of new PG sensing technology and LTE communicators.  

Qognify – the trusted advisor and technology solution provider for physical security and enterprise incident management – has recently announced that the latest release of its video management system (VMS) Cayuga R14, places a major focus on cybersecurity. With the rise of IP solutions for video surveillance systems in recent years, dealing with cybersecurity issues to safeguard video installations has become of utmost importance. One of the best ways to reduce network vulnerabilities associated with video surveillance systems is to make sure that the communication between different components of the video solution is securely encrypted. A comprehensive rolebased access management must also be in place in order to elevate the level of protection, while meeting the compliance requirements of mission-critical environments. Cayuga R14 is focusing on just that – the security architecture of the VMS has been revamped to make sure that internal communication is even safer than before. State-ofthe-art encryption is used for the export of videos, so that they can only be accessed by authorized people. Fundamental active directory (AD) optimizations make sure that the login procedure for Cayuga and the administration of AD roles are now fully aligned with industry standards. As single sign-on is now fully supported, there is no need to explicitly sign in to the Cayuga application – once the Windows login was successful. Aside from all the security improvements, Cayuga now offers the option to start the standard client in viewer mode. This way the user benefits from most of the standard features in the client – even without a connection to the Cayuga server. The new offline client is also available in a light-weight portable version to be distributed with exported video files. Furthermore, Cayuga now supports more than 5,000 different devices from more than 80 different hardware manufacturers. New camera functions have also been introduced into its smart drivers, giving customers even more choice when selecting the right hardware for a video security application.

The MS9321- EHV applies the brand-new Robocop design with a built-in sun-shield that sleekly covers four 5-megapixel sensors in 65-degree vertical field of view. It also supports IR illuminators effective up to 30 meters. Moreover, it is equipped with the video alignment feature, enabling users to experience a seamlessly stitched 180-degree horizontal view with superior details. Last but not the least, VIVOTEK launches its new generation multi-adjustable sensor dome camera, the MA9322-EHTV. Featuring four independent 5-megapixel CMOS sensors with 3.7 to 7.7 mm motorized-focus lenses and 30-meter IR illuminators, the MA9322-EHTV allows users to simultaneously view four different areas while occupying only a single IP address. Taken in total, the above features advance these new cameras beyond the current field of surveillance cameras to continue VIVOTEK’s campaign of ‘see more in smarter ways.’
