What security technologies can the transportation industry take advantage of?
If you’ve ever worked within or alongside the transportation, you already know just how serious security is. It’s an ever-changing industry, but one thing that seems to never change is how critical security is to everything flowing smoothly, whether that is passengers or cargo. Policies are constantly changing just as much as technology is and it’s no wonder that we see tech developers responding to the climate of the entire industry in what they make. Keeping everyone safe is a high priority so there’s certainly a call for security technologies that benefit the transportation industry specifically, which is why we’ve taken the time to break down three critical kinds of security technologies worth consideration.
1. Intelligent Driver Cameras
An intelligent driver camera is a powerful tool. With it, they’re able to scan faces and compare them against a database to authenticate identity and determine whether or not someone is granted access. Authenticating not only vehicles but the drivers and passengers within them is essential for a number of industries from government buildings to commercial facilities. A reliable intelligent driver camera should allow for flexible installation and work in a wide variety of weather conditions, ensuring that you’re never left without precious security technologies.
2. Undercarriage Scanners
Whether we’re talking about road vehicles like cars and trucks or trains on railroads, undercarriages are universally a vulnerable area within the transportation world. This is because these areas are largely obscured and difficult to search manually, but the right kinds of security technologies are capable of mitigating much of that risk. They’re able to provide security experts with alerts in real time to help them evaluate the issue at hand and determine if there are any dangerous modifications that need to be manually inspected.
3. License Plate Scanners
We mentioned how important it is to track and analyze the occupants of vehicles but it’s also important to have some record of the vehicles themselves. This is why a license plate scanner that can compartmentalize what license plates pass by is great for record-keeping and helps you have organizable data to keep track of who enters or exits a particular area.
