ARGOS Vibration Sensors

By using a new state–of–the art technology Mira Telecom has developed a world-class vibration sensor, highly accurate and ultra-wide bandwidth capable. This sensor perceives the ground vibrations and sends the signal back to a data processing unit over an optical fiber. The data processing unit is able to identify the vibration pattern in order to classify it and send the information back to the system. The deployment of this type of sensors beyond the security perimeter of the CI provide early warning of any possible intrusion and helps to enhance the security and prevent threats.

ARGOS Clustering with PROACTIVE Project

The PRedictive reasOning and multi-source fusion empowering AntiCipation of attacks and Terrorist actions In Urban EnVironmEnts (PROACTIVE) FP7 Project workshop themed “Models and architectures for emergency management” was organized in February 19th and 20th, 2015 by Consorzio Milano Ricerche and University of Milano Bicocca, Italy in Milan.

ARGOS at III Conference on Critical Infrastructure Protection

Everis Aerospace and Defense will present the European project ARGOS next 26^th February 2015, at the III Conference on Critical Infrastructure Protection organized by the Spanish National Center for Critical Infrastructure Protection (CNPIC) along with the Borredá foundation.

The security of critical infrastructure is rapidly developing in Spain. Since the adoption of the Law for the Protection of Critical Infrastructure in 2011 until the adoption of the first sector plans last year, these services have undergone major changes in its security. During the day they will be announced the latest developments, which will occur throughout 2015 and future. The event will be attended by representatives of agencies such as the Spanish Home Office, the CNPIC or the Spanish Institute for Cyber Security (Incibe) plus security officials of various operators. They will address topics such as the current state of the system Critical Infrastructure Protection, sector strategic plans of Transport and Water (which will be released in the coming months) or cyber incident management in these environments.
