THE PROBLEM

More sensors do not automatically create security. Coverage, integration, operator workflow, response authority and degraded-mode behaviour must work as one capability.

THE OUTCOME

A coherent architecture and response concept that connects detection, decision and action without implying ownership of partner technology.
