CIBER's Federal Security Business Unit offers the HMS System as a robust client-configured, integrated solution featuring intelligent radar, intelligent video, intelligent sonar, Automated Identification System (AIS), three modes of secure command and control (C2) situational displays (for C2 centers, mobile patrol boats, and Web-based users), notices of arrival, invoicing, scheduling, MARSEC level alert management, and training management. The HMS System was designed to be scalable and utilizes post incident replay, fusion of real-time data, and alarm zone alert distribution and management to deliver enhanced waterside and landside security capabilities. As such, the system presents a unified common operations picture that can disseminate user-defined information among numerous local, state, federal and commercial stakeholders.

Universal Guardian Systems provides the Total Asset Guardian(TM)(TAG3) platform for secure, reliable tagging at RFID Item/Carton/Pallet level for authentication and integration of GPS/GPRS/SAT visibility devices. Universal Guardian Services provides TAG3 with security assessments, threat and vulnerability evaluations, asset protection, anti-counterfeiting investigations, and insured services for Global Supply Chains, focusing on logistics and intermodal transportation.

Universal Guardian's experience in providing integrated port security solutions, coupled with their TAG3 platform, provides the HMS System solution with a real advantage in securing port operations and facilities while simultaneously improving port and shipping operations. By integrating RFID Source Tagging at the manufacturer level into the HMS system, CIBER can offer real-time chain of custody and visibility coupled with specific security information to private sector companies, port authorities, terminal operators and government agencies on a local, regional, national, and international level. This unique approach offers single-point access to various users and user groups interested in accessing defined data sets. In such a secure, integrated environment a foundation can be established upon which efficiencies of scale can be gained simultaneously delivering enhanced maritime security.

The opportunity to combine the CIBER HMS solution with the Total Asset Guardian(TM) platform strengthens Universal Guardian's systems offerings and provides Universal Guardian's services group with additional value add capabilities to leverage the firm's international presence in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Central Asia and Asia Pacific Maritime Security markets.
