Verint® Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNT) today
announced that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey
(PANYNJ) awarded Verint Video Intelligence Solutions™ with a
security contract in July 2011 for which it will supply IP video
solutions to the World Trade Center (WTC) Port Authority
Trans-Hudson (PATH) Transportation Hub. Slated to open in 2014, the
WTC Transportation Hub will make Lower Manhattan the third-largest
transportation center in New York and will re-establish the
transportation facilities and infrastructure that existed at the
WTC complex prior to September 11, 2001. The Port Authority will
implement the Verint Nextiva® security solution across such
critical areas as entrances, exits, platforms, and electrical and
telecommunications rooms to increase situational awareness, improve
preparedness, and enhance passenger safety and the security of
facilities.
Over the past several years, PANYNJ has deployed Verint video
solutions at key facilities, including the Lincoln and Holland
Tunnels, the George Washington Bridge, the New Jersey PATH system,
and AirTrain JFK. In cooperation with the U.S. Department of
Transportation through the Federal Transit Administration, PANYNJ
is building a new WTC 800,000-square-foot transportation hub. The
facility is designed to accommodate 250,000 pedestrians per day and
will feature underground pedestrian connections to locations on and
around the WTC site, Hudson River ferry terminals, the World
Financial Center, PATH trains, 13 subway lines, and the proposed
JFK rail link.
Verint, together with its integration partner Diebold,
Incorporated, will deliver the robust security system to help deter
crime and enhance the safety of this state-of-the-art facility.
Once implemented, the Verint Nextiva IP video portfolio will
enable PANYNJ to capture high-quality video images, optimize
bandwidth and storage utilization, leverage flexible video search
capabilities, and benefit from programmable video retention and
storage. As a result, the organization is expected to achieve a
more complete and accurate view of activity and operations.
“We are delighted to have been awarded this contract with the
Port Authority of New York and New Jersey,” says Elan Moriah,
president, Verint Video Intelligence Solutions and Verint Witness
Actionable Solutions®. “We believe that the Port Authority’s
decision to further extend its Nextiva deployment at the new World
Trade Center transportation hub is indicative of both the strength
of our solutions and Verint’s ongoing commitment to help secure our
nation’s critical infrastructure.”
