Climate activists belonging to the “Last Generation” group succeeded in gaining access to the apron of both the new Berlin airport and also the airport in Munich, and then glueing themselves to the tarmac. These serious security breaches caused chaos for thousands of people, with the consequences lasting several days while causing significant direct and indirect costs for passengers, airline companies and their suppliers, as well as the airport operators themselves. Just when we thought we had perimeter security covered, these troublemakers – very easily – proved us wrong, so GIT SECURITY has taken a quick look at some of the latest technology available to help keep airports secure, inside and outside.
The complete protection of critical infrastructure, in particular in the energy and supply sector, has been a mainstay of Senstar for many years, a provider of integrated security solutions that include video technology, access control and sensors for perimeter protection.

The predicted lack of sufficient energy caused by the interruption of gas supplied from Russia, the drastic price increase of certain raw materials and, above all, the attacks on the Nordstream 1 and 2 pipelines, as well as the attacks on the German railway network, have raised public awareness and that of politics, commerce and the media of just how critical and threatened critical infrastructure is (KRITIS). Highlighting the complexity of KRITIS, the strategy, options and limits of its protection, as well as the necessity of emergency planning, is the aim of this article by Reinhard Rupprecht, Ministerial Director (retired).

The digitalization of buildings of all sizes promises to deliver significant benefits for their owners, operators, and the individual users. It already made the automation of system controls possible using smart technology a long time ago – but when confronted by increasing complexity, artificial intelligence makes its welcome appearance. First of all, you build a digital twin of the building, such as Bosch Building Technologies does. This provides the most transparent view of all the elements of the building’s technology – and shows their most efficient way of working together. GIT SECURITY spoke about the subject with Andreas Mauer, Chief Architect at Bosch Building Technologies.
A recent Future Forum survey found that 58 % of knowledge workers already follow a hybrid work pattern: “Flexibility is the expectation – and increasingly the norm,” the report concludes. Further growth in flexible working is a certainty. These changing work patterns make flexibility in security even more critical. Choosing the right access control solution makes a big difference.

The digitalization of building design and construction presents challenges and major opportunities. The need to manage and marshal project information is much greater than in the “analogue” world. Yet if done right, a shift to digital processes can save money and time, and end with a greener, more usable building. However, to fully realize these benefits, many projects are missing a key ingredient: expertise.

When a door is equipped with a high-quality door closer, building users feel safer. They know that fire doors shut tight and sensitive openings are protected against unauthorized entry. But sometimes, door closer technology can also create barriers to genuine access-for-all. The problem is greater still for users who — for many reasons — have restricted strength or mobility.
The Marin Hospital of Hendaye in the French Basque Country faced common challenges posed by mechanical access control. Relying on mechanical lock-and-key technology made it difficult or impossible to know who had been accessing sensitive areas like treatment rooms and medicine stores.
Deliveries at night are often conducted by logistics companies and third-party providers, whose drivers must have access to the building, storage or cold rooms outside of business hours.
