Protecting people and property

Modern security systems work as an enabler by creating competitive advantage over other countries. They create the prerequisite for economic growth and investment.

Balancing security and freedom

The mission of public security is to strike a sound balance between protection and personal freedom. A daunting challenge, but one which can be met by employing modern technology. Biometric identification cards and passports speed up processes at border controls. Command and control systems enable people and equipment to be more effectively deployed - they all work to overcome the challenges of a mobile world.

Integrated security is key

Integrated security's vital difference lies in effective communication, in the bundling of all measures under one over-arching system. Siemens is playing a major role in the convergence of physical and logical security. This approach has been successful many times, such as at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, where Siemens supplied an integrated solution consisting of more than 65,000 different products, systems and solutions.
