Maritime Security
ISPS Code
|
What is the ISPS Code?
The ISPS Code provides a framework through which ships and port
facilities can co-operate to detect and deter acts which pose a
threat to maritime security. The ISPS Code enables the detection and
deterrence of security threats within an international framework,
establishes roles and responsibilities, enables collection and
exchange of security information, provides a methodology for
assessing security and ensures that adequate security measures in
place.
It requires ship and port facility staff to gather and assess information,
maintain communication protocols, restrict access, prevent the introduction
of unauthorised weapons, etc. , provide the means to raise alarms and put in
place vessel and port security plans and ensure training and drills are
conducted.
|
What are the benefits ? |
We can provide you with expert security advice delivered at a level that
suits your needs. You receive the assistance you need to develop and
implement an effective security management system that meets the

Advisory services for port
operators |
The ISPS code requires that security assessments are carried out and
that security plans are developed. Because no two ports or port
facilities are the same, we will work with you to develop the most
efficient and cost-effective range of advisory services suited to your
organisation.
Port and port facilities can be very complex. We can provide you with a
gap analysis a detailed report of the requirements necessary to achieve
compliance with the ISPS Code and national requirements. Our analysis
will identify the training needs of your port facility security officers
(PFSOs) and others, and describe how to develop port facility security
assessments (PFSAs) where applicable, and port facility security plans (PFSPs)
for approval by contracting governments.
You may be able to use the gap analysis as the basis for an action plan,
enabling you to develop your PFSP in-house. Should you require further
assistance, we can work with you to develop a package that is tailored
to your specific needs. |
|
Training services for CSOs,
SSOs and PFSOs |
Required by some flag administrations, although
not specifically required by the Code, is the need for security management
training. We have developed programmes for company, ship and port facility
security officers, which are available worldwide at times and locations of
your choice. |

Airports |
 Large
numbers of people pass through airports every day. Such a large
gathering of people presents a natural target for terrorism and other
forms of crime due to the number of people located in a small area.
Similarly, the high concentration of people on large airliners, the
potential high lethality rate of attacks on aircraft, and the ability to
use a hijacked airplane as a lethal weapon provide an alluring target
for terrorism. Airport security provides a first line of defense by
attempting to stop would-be attackers from bringing weapons or bombs
into the airport. If they can succeed in this, then the chances of these
devices getting on to aircraft are greatly reduced. As such, airport
security serves two purposes: To protect the airport from attacks and
crime and to protect the aircraft from attack. |

More and more are using electronic access control to limit individuals
access to their building. At a minimum, an electronic access control system
can be used to allow only individuals into a building, and provide excellent
documentation of when and where users enter and exit. Access control is the
only technology that proactively attempts to keep unauthorized individuals
out of a building or areas within a facility, and is a perfect complement to
video surveillance, burglar and fire systems in a comprehensive security
solution proposal.

proximity card reader or a sophisticated combination PIN, card swipe and
fingerprint reader all remain popular and effective.
Track Access
One of the advantages of an electronic access control system is the ability
to document and report access activity. Most small single door
applications have reporting available either through a printer or
through web-based access that shows an audit trail of door access
activity. Mid-range and large-scale systems can provide in depth,
user-defined reporting of access activity. This is a critical component
to the access system because it helps you to quickly understand who had
access to critical areas of your business or residential area before and
after an incident. All user access information is gathered by a central
PC-based workstation where the administrators may retrieve and analyze
the information. This data provides a recording of staff movement,
whether it is a residential area, small company or a company that
employs thousands.
Business & Residential Applications
- Hospitals & military bases
- Government buildings
- Municipal offices & prisons
- Manufacturing facilities & distribution centers
- Elevators
- Universities with multiple campuses
- Residential homes & gated communities
Users can define and control their access keys.
In many cases, organizations consider control of their own keys for physical
access control and other applications an essential element to security.
Access control makes it possible to do this.
Access control technology is affordable.
Access Control have generated a great deal of interest in recent
years, but one important factor that held the market back is cost. Anyone
can afford to install a access control system instead.
Mendax can help you to built your access control system for your
residential or enterprise areas. Call us for more informations on our
differents products and services and learn how we can help you meeting your

Types of Cameras
|
IP Camera |
Analog Camera |
Dome Camera |
Bullet Camera |
Indoor Camera |
Outdoor Camera |
|
The signal from an IP camera is delivered over an IP network. The
camera digitizes the images, compresses them, and then sends them
over the network |
A non-digital video signal is used by an analag video equipment for
input or output. Three basic analog video formats exist: NTSC, PAL,
and SECAM |
Their two main advantages are a more appealing visual appearance and
being easily movable. Their drawback is a lack of usefulness during
low light situations. |
A bullet camera is a type of security camera similar to a spot cam.
Its limitation is a fixed focal lens (not zoom), but its small,
narrow size makes it suitable for areas other cameras might not fit |
High resolution color mini dome
security camera. Great camera for all types of indoor video security
applications. |
Infrared bullet security camera. Great for outdoor security system
applications. Color video during the day and black and white night
vision video at night. |

How it works ?
The network advantage: IP networks are flexible,
powerful and advantageous, and they are the key to providing you with wide
ranging possibilities in system design, applications and solutions. Simply
connect an Mendax network camera (or video server that is attached to an
analog camera) directly to a computer network by wired or wireless means,
and you'll have access to live video streams directly from your desktop with
the use of a standard Web browser on a local area network or from any
location in the world via the Internet.
Image quality:
Image quality is one of the most important aspects of Mendax network
video products, which have continued to set the standard in the
industry.
Recording: You can set up the network video system to save
the video data to a file server at a local or distant location for security
reasons and at certain time intervals, or when motion is detected, for later
viewing and analysis.
Wide ranging network video products: You can find fixed
network cameras for both indoor and outdoor applications, as well as
pan/tilt/zoom and network dome cameras that enable remote control of pan,
tilt and zoom functions over IP networks. Video management software and
accessories such as network camera housings and devices that bridge between
analog and digital, are also available.
Audio: Besides visually being able to see remotely from
any networked computer, anywhere and at any time, Mendax also provides
products that enable two-way audio communication over networks. This allows
you to not only hear what's going on remotely, but also speak through the
network.
 Power
over Ethernet: With a network video solution, you have the option
of using the same Ethernet cable both for data communications as well as
power. This feature makes it easier to install products since an electrician
is not required and the network video product is able to operate even when
there is a power failure.
Mendax have excellent expertise in implementation of Video Surveillance
System in multiple situation cases. Our consultants can help you find
solutions that best meets your needs. Call Mendax to learn all the
advantages of a Video Surveillance System for your enterprise or your
personal property.
