Be sure of what you’re seeing. MSA Security® developed SmartTech® to support organizations’ bomb screening with expert analysis of suspicious images at the touch of a button. MSA’s proprietary DHS SAFETY Act-designated technology enables real-time review and interpretation of X-ray screener images by our expert team of bomb technicians working 24/7 in MSA’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in New York City.
For high-volume facilities and businesses, a shutdown of even just a few minutes can result in millions of dollars lost. SmartTech® effectively reduces the possibility of such disruptions.
SmartTech® enhances X-ray explosives screening operations by connecting existing X-ray screening machines directly to MSA’s EOC. If a screener is uncertain or finds anything unusual during image interpretation, they can access an MSA bomb technician for support using this state-of-the-art high-speed technology. These FBI-trained eyes quickly validate screener decision-making, saving productivity and expense.
• Important consultation on critical decisions
• Enhances safety and security of personnel and property
• Mitigates costly business disruption
• Reduces unnecessary evacuations
• Increases screener confidence and education
It is imperative for screeners to stay in the know and continue their education in the ever-changing world of IEDs. Thousands of calls and images come inbound to MSA’s EOC daily. That volume and variety provide comprehensive and valuable intel on today’s most prevalent IED threats. MSA bomb techs leverage that information and their experience to make every incoming suspicious call a learning opportunity for the X-ray screener.
SmartTech® is a unique explosives screening and detection solution that enhances screening effectiveness at lobbies, checkpoints, loading docks and other areas of facilities across the globe. This threat detection solution reinforces the success of security programs by empowering X-ray screeners with effective bomb threat detection tools and essential screener training required to protect people and assets, minimizing business disruption.
Organizations using SmartTech® gain peace of mind with complete liability protection in the event of a terrorist attack. In 2004, the Department of Homeland Security designated MSA’s SmartTech® under the SAFETY Act.
