PASADENA, Calif., April 1, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- ViaLogy LLC ("ViaLogy")
announces its technology is being integrated into the Cisco Open Platform
for Safety and Security (COPSS), the new Cisco technology platform launched
today at the annual FOSE 2008 industry trade show. The Cisco Open Platform
for Safety and Security is a secure, intelligent, converged solution
intended for multiple surveillance and alert applications to support the
growing needs of defense, civilian, public safety, state and local
government agencies. It is to be offered by Cisco to public sector
organizations on a worldwide basis.
As a core member of the solution team, ViaLogy will provide the sensor
integration engine for the platform. ViaLogy's SPM(TM) (Sensor Policy
Manager) software enables disparate sensors in very large enterprise
networks to process and report only key events of interest to security
personnel. The ViaLogy technology is sensor agnostic and considerably
enhances the performance and strength of all integrated legacy and IP
sensors, thus avoiding false alarms, missed events and optimizing use of
limited bandwidth. ViaLogy's SPM(TM) is an integral part of the Cisco Open
Platform for Safety and Security demonstration -- and available for viewing
-- at Cisco's Center of Excellence in Herndon, Virginia.
"We are pleased to be working with ViaLogy as part of our go-to-market
team for the Cisco Open Platform for Safety and Security," said Bruce
Klein, Cisco's federal vice president. "Our strategy is to pull together an
'ecosystem' of the leading companies with expertise in protecting citizens,
employees and critical assets to provide the most comprehensive solution
for facilitating collaboration for government agencies. ViaLogy delivers a
critical piece of our overall technology platform."
"Cisco has developed the Cisco Open Platform for Safety and Security to
answer a worldwide requirement from customers for improved and coordinated
integrated safety and security systems," said Robert W. Dean. President and
CEO of ViaLogy, "We are proud to be chosen as an approved supplier to the
platform."
"SPM(TM) is a comprehensive and flexible product that can be customised
to suit individual customer needs because we recognise that there are a
variety of situations to be dealt with. Some customers will want a complete
system for securing or monitoring a new building or area, others will want
the overall integration of existing and new security arrangements.
"The Cisco Open Platform for Safety and Security will give common
operational picture vigilance of all aspects of security, faster situation
assessment, automated decision making and improved response time."
ViaLogy has been closely involved in the development of an Improved
Decision Support System for disparate sensors. As the Department of Defense
drives convergence of physical security, consequence management and
Chemical, Biological, Radiological/Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) incidents
to ensure safety of military bases, scaleable network-centric technologies
and IT products are becoming increasingly important. ViaLogy has
demonstrated its successes over the past year during multiple Department of
Defense demonstrations that continually monitored and reported on CBRNE
sensors in realistic scenarios. ViaLogy's SPM(TM) technology flawlessly
linked all critical sensors to enable automatic time alerts to the right
person. This sensor integration and interoperability capability will be a
critical factor in next generation networked emergency alert systems.
