Introduction
The SDF Mobile Assessment solution uses advanced tactical appliances to enable you to scan the perimeter of your correctional facilities for contraband mobile devices. Part of the SDF tactical family of advanced tools, this highly specialized equipment is designed to detect the presence of unauthorized mobile devices within a facility. The scanning process can be conducted from various points around the facility’s perimeter, ensuring comprehensive coverage and detection of contraband devices.
Solution benefits
Cost effective
Reduced manual searches: Automated scanning reduces the need for labor-intensive manual searches, saving time and resources.
Lower operational costs: By preventing contraband from entering the facility, the costs associated with managing and mitigating security incidents are significantly reduced.
Improved inmate management
Illegal activity prevention: Detecting and confiscating contraband mobile devices helps prevent inmates from engaging in illegal activities such as coordinating escapes, organizing riots, or conducting criminal operations from within the facility.
Enhanced rehabilitation: Reducing the presence of contraband devices supports a safer and more controlled environment, which is conducive to inmate rehabilitation.
Increased staff and inmate safety
Threat minimization: By intercepting contraband devices, the risk of violence and other threats within the facility is minimized, ensuring a safer environment for both staff and inmates.
Better monitoring: Tactical devices can help in monitoring and managing inmate communications, reducing the likelihood of conflicts and enhancing overall safety.
Data collection and analysis
Behavioral pattern recognition: Sophisticated scanning techniques can collect data on contraband detection patterns, helping to identify trends and improve future security measures.
Reporting: SDF provides an open application programming interface (API) to interface to existing and future monitoring and analysis systems. SDF also provides pre-defined and customer-definable reports to assist in data analysis and further investigations.
Informed decision-making: The collected data can be used to make informed decisions about security protocols and resource allocation.
By implementing perimeter scanning with tactical appliances, correctional facilities can significantly enhance their security measures, improve operational efficiency, and create a safer environment for both staff and inmates.
Total solution delivery
SDF will deploy a specialized vehicle outfitted with the appliances, antennas, computers, and other equipment needed for your mobile assessment operations. Along with our skilled staff, the vehicle will travel along the perimeter of the facility and stop at strategic points deemed optimal based on an analysis of mobile networks, signals, and the specific topology of the area.
At each strategic point, SDF will scan and register all of the relevant devices for further analysis and reporting.
The image below shows an example of a facility with 4 points at which the mobile team will conduct detection scans for the mobile assessment.
