Empowering State and Local Government with
Physical Security Solutions
State and local governments are increasingly responsible for shouldering the burden of providing safety and security for citizens. While federal Homeland Security funds are available to support these efforts, local governments are left to their own devices to propose security measures, select security solutions, and implement programs. With limited management resources and tight budgets, state and local governments face tremendous pressure when it comes to securing airports, subways, busy intersections, court houses and other public spaces.
Video surveillance, in particular, has proven an invaluable tool in securing environments. When used in public spaces, Wren surveillance solutions enable authorities to identify suspicious behavior, prevent problems, and bring criminals to justice after an event.
When investing in security solutions, state and local governments require:
- Precision – If and when an event does occur, being able to track down and identify the perpetrator is critical. A suspicious package left in a metro station, a convict escaping from a court house or terrorist activity all require immediate action and security solutions that can provide the data needed to react quickly.
- Usability – State and local governments have limited management resources to dedicate to security efforts. Therefore, solutions must be easy to use, easily accessible and deliver critical information at a glance.
- Cost effectiveness – Operating on tight budgets, state and local governments must make the most of existing hardware while simultaneously taking advantage of the latest technology and establishing the foundation for the future.
Wren offers state and local governments dependable surveillance and access control solutions to secure airports, subways and other locations, all with centralized control through the Encapsulon solution.
