The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has renewed the SAFETY (Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies) Act certification for Genetec Security Center through to 2028. The designation certifies the unified security platform’s technology that manages and monitors electronic security systems, including access control, video surveillance, and automated licence plate reading.
The SAFETY Act, part of the Homeland Security Act of 2022, provides incentives for the development and deployment of anti-terrorism technologies and establishes liability limitations resulting from an act of terrorism where Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technologies (QATT) are deployed.
Genetec received this certification and designation after meeting stringent qualifications. In 2011, Genetec received the first certification for Omnicast its video management system, followed by Security Center in 2017.
“We want our technology to meet the highest possible standards and address the specific challenges and opportunities our government customers face,” said Christian Morin, CSO & Vice President of product engineering at Genetec Inc. “This important designation reflects our dedication to this goal.”
