The event offers an unparalleled opportunity for companies and research institutions to showcase the latest equipment and systems developed to meet the needs of counter terrorism, special forces and government security agencies worldwide. These will include the latest technologies in the areas of security screening, biometrics, internet and computer security, intelligence and anti-terrorism training methods, CBRN threats, surveillance, security risk management and land, air and sea security.
