Critical Infrastructure and Site Protection
 |
| ||||
Missions
Recent events have exposed the vulnerability of modern societies to assaults on or manipulation of critical sites.
Imagine the consequences of an attack on a water distribution plant or of chemical and biological weapons in the hands of terrorists.
Other man-made disasters that pose severe risks to a nation’s critical infrastructure must also be avoided.
Main missions cover:
-
control of identity and movement of persons and materials or cargo within sites
-
preventing sites and critical infrastructures from being attacked
-
providing information and communication network security
-
countering terrorism and crime

Cyber security: information systems and data networks are the central infrastructure of all economies. The prevention of cyber-crime and the protection of systems and sensitive data is one of the most critical issues that security organisations face. Highly confidential data belonging to governments and private security organisations need to be protected against illegal activities. EADS deploys and integrates sophisticated security programmes to protect IT systems and data.
Security system design
Maximum security requires individual subsystems to be embedded into larger, coherent systems. The extent and composition of this system is dependent on the facilities to be secured, customer operational processes and the expected threats to be countered. The resulting optimal combination of technical, personnel and organisational elements result in maximum security, while reducing risks and costs.
It is therefore EADS’ approach to design full systems from the start, customised and facility-specific in close cooperation with the customer. EADS designs large-scale, custom-tailored security systems with proven components, while offering not only technical and design expertise, but also financing and operational experience.
