Critical Infrastructure
Power plants, water supply, telecommunications, transport and public institutions – these are installations society cannot function without. The security systems protecting them must operate flawlessly, meet strict regulatory requirements and withstand both physical and digital threats. Solid Sikring delivers certified solutions designed for exactly this – from perimeter protection and access control to intrusion alarms and CCTV, all tailored to the highest security grades.
Challenges for critical infrastructure
Critical installations operate under an entirely different threat landscape than ordinary commercial buildings. Requirements come from multiple directions – authorities, industry regulations and an increasingly complex risk environment – and the consequences of failure can extend far beyond the individual organisation.
Regulatory requirements and compliance
The Security Act, object security regulations and requirements from NSM, DSB and sector authorities set strict expectations for physical security, documentation and compliance. Non-compliance can lead to orders, sanctions and loss of approvals.
Targeted threats and sabotage
Critical infrastructure is an attractive target for both organised crime and state actors. The risk of sabotage, break-ins and unauthorised access requires security systems that detect and alert in real time – long before an incident escalates.
Uptime and redundancy requirements
Security systems for critical infrastructure must operate 24/7/365 without exception. This means redundant communication paths, backup power, automatic failover and systems that monitor themselves – so a component failure never means a security gap.
Documentation and traceability
Inspections and audits require complete traceability – who had access, when were alarms triggered, which incidents were handled and how. Systems must deliver detailed logs and reports that withstand scrutiny.
Integration of legacy and new systems
Many critical facilities have existing security systems from different vendors and generations. The challenge is to modernise without creating vulnerable transition phases, and to make everything work together in one unified platform.
Personnel and access management
Large facilities have many employees, subcontractors and visitors with different access needs. Managing who has access to what – and when – must be precise, traceable and easy to administer, without compromising security.
Our solutions for critical infrastructure
We design and install security systems tailored for critical facilities. Each solution is built according to applicable standards and adapted to the specific requirements of the site – from the outer perimeter to the innermost security zone.
Perimeter protection with detection
Protection of outer boundaries with thermal cameras, radar detection, sensor cables and video analytics. The system provides early warning of intrusion attempts and can integrate with lighting, speakers and automatic barriers for active response.
Access control with zone-based access
Multi-level access control managing access from the outer perimeter to the most sensitive zones. Supports card readers, biometrics, PIN and multi-factor authentication – with full traceability and time-limited access for subcontractors and visitors.
Intrusion alarm with high security grade
Alarm systems certified up to grade 4 in accordance with EN 50131. Redundant signal transmission via IP and mobile network ensures alarms always get through, even during attempts to jam or sabotage communication lines.
CCTV with analytics
High-resolution cameras with video analytics for automatic detection of movement, objects and behaviour. Thermal cameras provide visibility in darkness and poor weather. Everything is stored encrypted with sufficient retention time for investigation needs.
Redundant systems and backup power
All critical components are duplicated with automatic failover. UPS and backup generators ensure operation during power outages. Systems monitor their own health and alert on deviations – so maintenance can be performed proactively.
Centralised management and reporting
All security systems are brought together in one overarching management interface. Operators get real-time overview of events, alarms and access across locations – with detailed reports and export capabilities for inspections and audits.
