Allied Defense Group Subsidiary To Provide Surveillance Solution At Super Bowl XLII

  • Jan 28, 2008
 The Allied Defense Group recently announced that its California-based surveillance company, NS Microwave (NSM), has been selected to provide an integrated surveillance solution for the site of Super Bowl XLII at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz.

The system provided by NSM is a broad based solution that will cover a wide range of surveillance system capabilities. The security system integrates a number of video sensors on both fixed and mobile aerial and ground platforms, and also includes an 86-foot mobile command center, helicopter downlinks, and command/control NS and multi-format legacy cameras. These components are maximized by the use of NSM's proprietary video management software, NS9200, which is limitless in its ability to integrate any sensor in the marketplace, and provides feeds to federal and local government and law enforcement agencies.

"We recognized early on the value of a comprehensive solution to a very complex situation,” said Mitch Kelsey, with the Special Operations Division of the Glendale Police Department, the lead public agency for security in and around the complex. “Faced with several disparate video systems that covered a variety of business partners, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that NS Microwave had the ability, as well as flexibility, in its products and its team, to meet needs that seemed to change daily."

"This very impressive system in Glendale is an excellent example of how NSM can customize a complete surveillance system based on the customer's needs and integrate their leading edge technology with new or existing equipment,” said Major General (Ret.) John J. Marcello, CEO and president of The Allied Defense Group. We are very pleased with this new relationship, which establishes another NSM footprint for citywide systems in the United States. We will continue to provide systems like these domestically, and are working to expand our customer base internationally, as well."

  • Evolving Cybersecurity Strategies

    Organizations are increasingly turning their attention to human-focused security approaches, as two out of three (68%) cybersecurity incidents involve people. Threat actors are shifting from targeting networks and systems to hacking humans via social engineering methods, living off human errors as their most prevalent attack vector. Whether manipulated or not, human cyber behavior is leveraged to gain backdoor access into systems. This mainly results from a lack of employee training and awareness about evolving attack techniques employed by malign actors. Read Now
