Securitas, an intelligent security solutions partner, has formalized a strategic partnership with Rohde & Schwarz, a company in artificial intelligence-based millimeter wave screening technology. This long-term collaboration was formed to offer increased precision, privacy, and agility to high-stakes environments. 

At the core of this strategic partnership, Securitas will integrate Rohde & Schwarz’s screening technology into its multi-layered data center security offering.

“This is a perfect demonstration of how technology augments, rather than replaces, human expertise,” said Milton Plet, senior vice president and head of global clients data center group, Securitas. “Our officers are still at the core of the solution, only better supported by real-time information to make even better decisions in order to protect our clients’ assets.”

Rohde & Schwarz’s Quick Personnel Security Scanners (QPS) are designed to optimize on-site officers’ role in manual screening. The QPS utilizes algorithms to identify anomalies and supports security officers in real-time decision-making.

“The strategic partnership with Securitas enables us to introduce our security scanners, formerly exclusive to governments, now also to data centers, where adaptability, consistency and precision are key,” said Andreas Haegele, vice president, microwave imaging, Rohde & Schwarz. “Together, we are delivering a customized, future-proof solution that adapts to both clients’ needs and the threat landscape.”

Nelson Barreto, senior vice president, global clients, Securitas Technology, concluded, “This partnership reflects our shared commitment to innovation and client-centric solutions. By combining electronic security expertise along with our global protective services and reach, we’re delivering a smarter, more adaptive approach to securing data centers, no matter where they’re located.”
