NEW YORK — Rehovot, Israel-based radar technology and perimeter protection solutions provider Mago Systems announces it is expanding into the North American market with veteran security executive Yaron Zussman as general manager.
Founded in 2007, Magos first specialized in advanced radar solutions for the military and defense markets. After the declassification of its technology in 2015, the company began developing systems for the commercial security market.
Magos radars are now used in over 30 countries in critical infrastructure, data centers, electric utility sub stations and oil refineries, as well as in other commercial verticals like vineyards and car lots, according to the company.
With its eyes set on the U.S., the company has named Moshe Levi and Javier Arias as program managers for the North American operation.
Levi brings over 18 years of experience in the IT and security industries to the team, and holds a degree in computer science from the Academic College of Tel-Aviv.
Prior to joining Magos, Levi worked with companies such as FST Biometrics and spent two years with ML-TEC Consulting as a technology and business development consultant and product manager. He also worked with OnSSI as a product manager and held the position of director of partner alliance with Brief Cam.
Arias has spent over 20 years in the security industry and holds a degree in computer engineering from the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He also previously worked with FST Biometrics.
Arias gained experience as a project manager for G4S Technology, as a security consultant with Critigen and worked with CH2M Hill and Security Management Systems for almost a decade.
“We are excited to expand our customer base and technology partners in North America, and we look forward to the new opportunities this strategic move will lead to,” says Yaron Zussman, general manager of Magos America.
The Magos product offering includes a variety of ground-based radar solutions with varying coverage range for a broad base of applications, along with an automated radar management software. Magos radar technology allows for 24/7 all-condition detection of a protected site in a cost-effective manner, according to the company.
Magos claims the technology boasts an ultra-high range accuracy, enabling excellent performance and false alarm reduction even in the most cluttered environments.
