Honeywell to Upgrade Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport Security System

LOUISVILLE, Ky.
Published: June 7, 2006

Honeywell announces that the Minneapolis-St. Paul Int’l Airport will upgrade its security system with Honeywell’s Pro-Watch security management software platform, addressing new federal security guidelines and streamlining security management.

The upgrade will include installation of head-end, intelligent controllers and a DESFire contactless smart card identification badge system for 17,000 badge holders. The card system is engineered to encode biometric information, such as fingerprints and hand geometry data, complying with rigorous federal standards for worker identification, including Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12.

Additionally, the Pro-Watch Software Platform will route all security information to one system interface and allow for integration of future security subsystems and technologies associated with ground-based radar, perimeter intrusion detection and video analytics.
