No guards. No gaps.No compromises.
Water treatment plants, power generation facilities, telecom towers, and transportation hubs are high-value, low-staffed targets. VDS delivers layered perimeter surveillance, NDAA and NERC compliance, and 24/7 SOC monitoring for facilities that can never go dark.
One breach can
shut down everything.
Critical infrastructure faces both physical threats and regulatory mandates. The cost of failure is measured in service disruptions, not just dollars.
Sabotage & terrorism
Critical infrastructure is a high-value target. A single breach can disrupt services for millions of people.
Copper & metal theft
Copper wiring, aluminum conductors, and metal components stripped from remote, unmanned facilities for scrap value.
Regulatory compliance
NERC CIP, CFATS, MTSA, and sector-specific mandates require documented physical security with audit trails.
Remote unmanned facilities
No on-site staff. No nearby witnesses. Response times measured in hours. The perfect conditions for intrusion.
Layered detection.
Continuous coverage.
Sensors detect. AI classifies. PTZ identifies. The SOC verifies. PD responds with live video. Five layers, zero gaps.
Detect at distance.
Identify on approach.
Multi-sensor detection identifies human and vehicle targets well before they reach the fence line. Thermal imaging confirms classification. 4K PTZ locks on for positive identification. The SOC knows what is coming before it reaches the perimeter.
- Long-range perimeter detection envelope
- Thermal target classification
- Automatic sensor-to-PTZ handoff
- All-weather, zero-light operation
STEP 01Built for auditors.
Not just operators.
Every VDS component meets NDAA Section 889 requirements. For energy-sector assets, we deliver NERC CIP-014 physical security documentation, incident logs, and quarterly compliance packages automatically.
- NDAA Section 889 — zero prohibited components
- NERC CIP-014 documentation and reporting
- CFATS and MTSA alignment available
- Immutable audit trail for all events
STEP 02Unmanned doesn't mean
unmonitored.
VDS SOC operators — trained, security-cleared — monitor every alert around the clock. Live verification, audio deterrence, and direct PD dispatch with streaming video. The facility is never truly alone.
- 24/7/365 SOC monitoring
- Live audio deterrence via amplified speakers
- Direct PD dispatch with live video
- Incident reports delivered per SLA
STEP 03Zero blind spots.
Zero excuses.
Multi-unit deployments create overlapping coverage zones across the entire perimeter. Coordinated alerting ensures that a target tracked by one unit is handed off seamlessly to the next.
- Overlapping detection coverage zones
- Multi-unit sensor coordination
- Seamless target handoff between units
- Single-dashboard operational view
STEP 04Every sector. Every asset.
One platform.
The MSU adapts to your specific infrastructure sector. Here are the scenarios operators deploy for most often.
Water treatment plants
Perimeter surveillance for water and wastewater facilities with chemical storage, pump stations, and reservoir access points.
Power generation
Gas, coal, nuclear, and renewable generation facilities requiring multi-layer perimeter detection and compliance documentation.
Telecom infrastructure
Cell towers, data centers, and fiber hubs. Remote, unmanned, and targeted for copper and equipment theft.
Transportation hubs
Rail yards, port facilities, and intermodal terminals with large perimeters and high-value cargo staging.
Pipeline & refinery
CFATS-regulated chemical and petroleum facilities with extended perimeters and complex compliance requirements.
Dam & reservoir
Remote water infrastructure with restricted access zones, long perimeters, and limited on-site staffing.

Customer-reported outcomes from VDS deployments. Results vary by site conditions, monitoring configuration, and response protocols. How we measure →
We replaced a 12-person guard rotation with four VDS trailers. Zero breaches in 18 months. The board stopped asking about perimeter security.
MSU-A · FLAGSHIPMULTI-SENSOR · NDAAThe Mobile Surveillance Unit.

Design & configuration
Multi-unit placement plan, detection coverage mapping, alert rules, compliance documentation templates, and command integration configured.
Deployment & commissioning
Trailers delivered, positioned, and sensors calibrated. Overlapping coverage verified. SOC monitoring begins immediately.
Compliance & reporting
Monthly incident reports, quarterly compliance packages, and annual security reviews delivered automatically.
Common questions.
How fast can VDS deploy at a critical infrastructure site?
A mobile surveillance unit is live in under 20 minutes once it arrives — most critical infrastructure sites go from first call to monitored coverage in days, not months. Most critical infrastructure deployments go from assessment to live perimeter coverage inside 10 business days.
Do the units need power or internet at the site?
No. VDS units are solar-autonomous with battery storage and connect over cellular (4G/5G), so there is no trenching, no generator refueling schedule, and no dependence on site IT. That is what makes them practical for sites where fixed infrastructure is missing or still under construction.
What happens when the system detects someone after hours?
AI detection classifies the event and filters routine motion before a person ever sees it. A SOC operator verifies the live feed, challenges intruders by voice through 120 dB speakers with strobes, and — when it escalates — dispatches police with live video of the scene.
Which critical infrastructure security problems does monitored surveillance address?
The most common incidents at critical infrastructure sites are sabotage & terrorism, copper & metal theft, regulatory compliance, remote unmanned facilities — the same exposure areas covered in the sections above. Monitored coverage addresses them by making the site actively watched instead of just recorded.
Can VDS work alongside our existing guards or security partner?
Yes — that is the standard model. Monitored surveillance carries the perimeter and after-hours watch, so people — yours or your security partner's — handle verified incidents instead of standing watch over empty hours. The SOC can route verified alerts to your team, your guard provider, or police dispatch.
