Airbus to unveil key security products at Qatar expo
DOHA, October 18, 2014
Airbus Defence and Space will showcase its leading homeland security solutions at the Milipol Qatar 2014, a leading trade exhibition dedicated to internal security to be held from October 20 to 22 in Doha.
It is a division of Airbus Group formed by combining the business activities of Cassidian, Astrium and Airbus Military.
The company said it will be displaying some of its latest products and solutions ranging from Emergency Response Solution and UAS surveillance, identification and inspection aerial vectors to a range of cyber security services.
The CiviLead command and control solution integrated with CiviSense, both components of Civion, grants first responders a clear situational awareness in real time due to an integrated camera and video management software.
In the field of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), the company is showing its Copter 4 and DVF2000 surveillance, identification and inspection aerial vectors.
Copter 4, the flagship model of Survey Copter, the mini and tactical UAS subsidiary of Airbus Defence and Space, is a 1h30 endurance mini UAS double independent engines helicopter with a mass of 30 kg and a rotor diameter of 2m which can fly up to a distance of 25 km at a maximum speed of 50 km/hour.
The payload, including daylight and infrared cameras, is integrated in a gyro-stabilized gimbal which reduces the movement of the aircraft and allows the operator to point to the target or the scene of interest, said the company in a statement.
The DVF2000 is a new generation fixed-wing electro-glider mini UAS operated by a two-man team. With an endurance of two hours and a range of about 50 km, it is deployed in less than 10 minutes.
Launched by catapult and landing on field or net, it flies entirely automatically, which enables the operators to devote themselves to their surveillance assignment.
Another focus is a cyber security service for detecting and fighting Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). The solution named Keelback combines classic methods like signature tracking, hitech detection based on behaviour that reveals activities of attackers as well as weak signals reconnaissance.
In addition, the company is also introducing a new generation of IT security solutions. Called Stormshield Network Security, this leading European Unified Threat Management product provides the next level of network security, available for medium and large enterprise networks as well as to protect cloud environments instantly.-TradeArabia News Service
