Pre-existing situation & UTCFS’s role

In the past, ENAV did not feel the need for a security system within the company. However, after the terrible events of 9/11, ENAV acknowledged the need for security, and established a department overseeing its implementation. ENAV desired an integrated system for intrusion, access control and video. This marked the beginning of its relationship with UTCFS.

UTCFS’s solution

ENAV needed a diverse new security system covering intrusion, video and access control. This system would need to be installed in about 50 sites. UTCFS’s integrated method manages these different systems efficiently using the Secure Perfect Global Edition access control system. The entire system and subsystem consists of one global server with nine regional servers, over 8,000 alarm inputs, 610 door readers and over 400 cameras. With this solution in place, UTCFS successfully met all of ENAV’s requests regarding security, enabling them to offer a safe environment for their employees and customers.
