Danger Prevention at Infraserv Höchst
Covering an area of 4.6 square kilometers, the industrial site Infraserv Höchst, Germany, is a veritable ‘town within a town’. It has its own railway, its own harbor, and its own fire brigade. Ninety chemical and pharmaceutical companies are located here that together employ some 22,000 people. Infraserv Höchst’s business is location development, and they are experts in the provision of chemicals-related services. The Danger Prevention department of the Site Management division is headed up by Linda Voigtländer. GIT SECURITY spoke with her.
Smart LiDAR for the Security Industry
According to Blickfeld, the Blickfeld QbProtect is the first smart LiDAR that, thanks to analysis software, standard interfaces, and a web GUI on-device, provides directly usable results concerning unauthorized entry. Object size detection leads to a remarkably low false alarm rate.

Reliable Perimeter Protection Creates Higher Profitability
Theft of solar modules is not uncommon these days. Reports of burglaries in solar parks and photovoltaic plants indicate that organized gangs are at work here. But high replacement costs and the failure of an entire plant because of minor defects or faults are a major problem for the operator. Critical mobile phone and power grid connections of the isolated solar parks are an additional risk factor. Alarm.direct, a service provider for security solutions, has specialized in solar park security in various European countries, Canada and the Dominican Republic, and has developed comprehensive concepts to protect against the theft of plant components such as copper cables, solar panels, inverters, against vandalism and the consequent operational failures.

Security for Ports 2021
Keeping up logistics, shipping on high seas and waterways is a business which needs to be carefully run on big trade ports, rivers or passages, especially on the word trading routs. We could get an impression of what happens, if sea traffic comes to a stand during the past month when Suez Canal was blocked. Logistics in Ports and waterways is a high-security topic, which is why GIT SECURITY collected some of the security technologies on the market that help keeping up the flow of logistics safe and secure.
