Verint solution chosen for securing of Port of Santos, a large export hub

Brazil's Port Authority of the City of Santos is deploying Verint's Networked Video Solution to enhance security at the Port of Santos. Verint is a provider of analytic software-based solutions for communications interception, networked video security and business intelligence.

Located on Brazil's southeastern coast and connected by rail to Sao Paulo and the Brazilian interior, the Port of Santos is the country's largest port, serving as an industrial and agricultural export hub for South America's entire southern cone. The Verint Networked Video Solution, delivered in conjunction with partners Trade Informatica and Trielo, will enable the Port of Santos to enhance the security of its perimeter and operations by centrally managing and analyzing video transmitted over wireless and wireline networks. It will also help the port to comply with the International Maritime Organization's new International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, which specifies security and surveillance procedures for all international ports.

"We are pleased to be working with the Port of Santos," said Dan Bodner, president and CEO of Verint Systems Inc. "We have significant experience helping ports enhance security and are committed to developing new analytic solutions to enable them to meet their increasingly stringent security objectives."
