Strengthening Cyber Assurance for Critical Infrastructure<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Synectics has announced that its Synergy security and surveillance platform<\/u><\/a> has been awarded Cyber Assurance of Physical Security Systems (CAPSS<\/u><\/a>) certification from the UK National Protective Security Authority (NPSA), confirming that it meets the Government\u2019s stringent cyber security standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CAPSS certification independently verifies Synergy\u2019s cyber resilience, giving customers assurance that robust cyber security is built into the platform\u2019s development and operation.<\/p>\n\n\n

This reinforces the platform’s suitability for deployment across critical national infrastructure (CNI), including utilities, transport, policing, government facilities and public spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also strengthens Synergy\u2019s position in markets where cyber assurance and CAPSS certification are increasingly crucial requirements for procurement and supplier selection of physical security systems, helping buyers compare and choose with greater confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CAPSS certification also secures Synergy\u2019s inclusion in the NPSA Catalogue of Security Equipment (CSE)<\/u><\/a>, providing procurement teams from government departments and infrastructure operators sourcing cyber-assured solutions with the confidence that the platform meets nationally recognised cyber assurance standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Aindow, Chief Strategy Officer at Synectics, said: \u201c<\/strong>Security and surveillance platforms are part of an organisation\u2019s critical operational infrastructure and customers rightly expect them to meet the highest standard of cyber resilience.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCAPSS certification demonstrates that Synergy has been independently assessed against rigorous government-defined cyber security requirements, giving customers greater confidence in the platform\u2019s ability to support secure operations in some of the world\u2019s most demanding environments.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
