Honeywell and Fiber Sensys Forge Integrated Security Solution for Critical Infrastructure

  • Sep 14, 2015

Honeywell announced that its Vindicator security platform now integrates with Fiber SenSys, Inc.’s fence-mounted fiber optic sensor system. The integration creates an easy-to-install solution that keeps critical infrastructure locations safe and secure.

Honeywell Vindicator V5/V3 controllers and the XML version of the Fiber SenSys system provide a modular, scalable solution that adds value through increased capability and cost reduction derived from intelligent TCP/IP communications.

“Critical infrastructure customers have a particularly strong need for solutions that reduce cost and streamline site management,” said Angela Oberman, senior channel manager, Honeywell. “This heightened demand creates the impetus to merge systems like Fiber SenSys with Vindicator to form smart systems. The interoperability allows us to meet or exceed our customers’ needs while maintaining a competitive price.”

The solution reduces the time needed to integrate and install Fiber SenSys sensors with Honeywell Vindicator security systems.

“We see many synergies here between both companies,” said Bill Evenson, vice president, Fiber SenSys. “We often find Honeywell Vindicator products being deployed at the same sites as Fiber SenSys. This intelligent integration between our product lines empowers our shared customers to make an easy decision on the types of technology used to secure their site.”

  • The Stage is Set

    The security industry spans the entire globe, with manufacturers, developers and suppliers on every continent (well, almost—sorry, Antarctica). That means when regulations pop up in one area, they often have a ripple effect that impacts the entire supply chain. Recent data privacy regulations like GDPR in Europe and CPRA in California made waves when they first went into effect, forcing businesses to change the way they approach data collection and storage to continue operating in those markets. Even highly specific regulations like the U.S.’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) can have international reverberations – and this growing volume of legislation has continued to affect global supply chains in a variety of different ways.
