A proven solution professionals can rely on.

Charleston International Airport

Charleston International Airport (CHS) takes a proactive approach to security and is continually seeking advanced solutions to provide better protection for airport passengers against all measures of threats.

Integration Drives Faster Response Times

The adoption of the SDS Indoor Gunshot Detection System at CHS came after an exhaustive review of various gunshot detection systems, says Tedd Steele, senior network architect at CHS. Ultimately, the airport selected the SDS solution for its technology, performance, and third-party credentials including SAFETY Act Certification by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Airport officials also liked that the airport’s security systems provider, Johnson Controls Security Solutions had previously partnered with SDS on other projects.
