SRG Technology launches advanced maritime security system

SRG Technology, the cutting-edge data collection and analysis solutions developer, has unveiled its new Maritime Alerting Security System (MASS) during International Shipping Week in London.

MASS was designed in conjunction with the International Maritime Security Associates (IMSA) with the intention of driving performance improvements.

The partnership between IMSA and SRG Technology already provides the innovative software portal platform Blender. They put the experience to work creating MASS.

MASS works as a maritime threat alert system, with functions for better security management and compliance. The technology is meant to provide vessels and fleet managers of all types with real-time geo-positional threat alerts, security management tools and customized protocols -- all on a single dashboard.

The MASS Command Control Center is operated around the clock by veteran maritime security personnel who collect, consolidate, validate and disseminate data sources from around the globe. Only relevant threat data is delivered to vessels based on their location.

"The maritime industry regularly faces numerous and unique risks such as piracy, maritime terrorism, civil unrest, medical outbreaks, port delays and severe weather," SRG Technology CEO Neil Sterling said. "MASS has the potential to revolutionize the way these threats can be addressed by offering a maritime security solution which provides vessels with customized threat data in a smarter and more meaningful way, securing safer outcomes and lower costs."
