In a current social climate that includes stringent safety requirements, governmental compliance guidelines, and the ever-present possibility of both domestic and international terrorism, the role of plant security systems in ensuring industrial plant security is of paramount importance.
In addition to basic plant site security, effective plant security systems provide incident management functionality to preserve structural integrity. They also deliver the tools necessary to ensure the safety of your employees by helping to develop security protocols and making sure all employees are accounted for in emergency situations.
Intergraph offers numerous plant security systems solutions, such as our SmartPlant Process Safety offering, which uses your current organizational HAZOP knowledge and applies it across the enterprise, ensuring safety, efficiency, and reduced operational risk in daily operations, security breaches, and throughout structural engineering changes in your building.
Some of our other industrial plant security offerings include the following emergency dispatch software components:
IntelliWhere®. During a security situation, knowing where your personnel and assets are can help preserve the integrity of the plant. Our IntelliWhere solution lets you track the location of your resources, share them across a plant site security system, and relocate them as necessary.
I/Sight. For coordinating third-party video surveillance equipment with an Intergraph incident management system, Intergraph offers I/Sight. This intuitive solution provides a video interface to bolster plant security systems.
I/Sensor. In emergency situations, knowing where your personnel are located is often the highest priority. With I/Sensor, you can communicate with sensor devices, such as those attached to employee security passes, to create a mustering station that allows employees to "check in" electronically during security situations. Furthermore, those recognized as "not checked in" can be tracked by emergency personnel as needed.
I/AlarmPlus. Intergraph offers increased flexibility to plant security systems by offering I/AlarmPlus, which coordinates incident management systems with a host of third-party alarm and surveillance products.
I/Asset. Plant security systems that incorporate I/Asset are able to quickly track the location of stationary assets, such as emergency, medical, and survival supplies as necessary.
I/Consequence. Plant security systems that have predefined security action plans are at a distinct advantage. With I/Consequence, your organization can even create predetermined security parameters that, when breached, put your security plan into action automatically - saving time when it counts most.
I/Simulator. The biggest disadvantage in security response is not knowing what is happening when you arrive at a scene. With I/Simulator, however, your organization can create any number of virtual scenarios that give you the power to see what an actual emergency may look like and be prepared for it.
I/Dashboard. For monitoring the relative status of different areas of your enterprise during a security incident, integrate I/Dashboard into your industrial plant security systems.
