PARAMUS, New Jersey,
June 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) today announced that a large
city in Brazil has implemented
NICE Situator to help secure its community and next week's
international soccer tournament, taking place in Brazil from June 12 to
July 13, 2014. NICE Systems will continue working with local
authorities following the tournament as part of a broader safe city
initiative, to protect its millions of citizens.
NICE Situator was selected as the centerpiece of the integrated
management center that will oversee safety and security in one of
the soccer tournament's host cities. The center brings together 24
government agencies that will leverage NICE Situator to enhance
situational awareness, decision-making and incident response.
Should an incident occur, security operators will have instant
access to real-time video from hundreds of video cameras along with
an automated response plan.
"We're proud to have been selected for this safe city
initiative, which involves securing one of the biggest sporting
events in the world," said Chris
Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE Security Group.
"NICE's experience and technology makes us uniquely equipped to
support a multifaceted security initiative of this level. This
comes on the heels of our successful safe city initiative with
Sochi, Russia."
At the conclusion of the project, NICE Situator will be the
centerpiece of a comprehensive city-wide solution that integrates
multiple video surveillance systems, including NiceVision, and
connects to thousands of cameras and sensors. The solution will
correlate data from behavioral analytics software, social media
analysis, access control, and fire and intrusion detection systems.
Operators will use Situator to monitor and manage security at the
soccer stadium, hotels, roads, transit system, airport, and other
locations in the city. The solution will also integrate computer
aided dispatching, helping to manage incidents that are escalated
by emergency service center operators.
