The transformation of 100 cities into Smart Cities is planned across India; each city will be equipped with the infrastructure to offer pan-city elements including safety and security. Combining the latest PSIM and video surveillance technologies, CNL Software and Infinova offer an integrated situation management solution to enable Safe Smart Cities - maintaining the safety of citizens, the protection of critical infrastructure and the security of travel & transportation.

“Safety and security are foundation stones for any smart city, as without them there will be no investment in the complex solutions needed to improve efficiency”, comments Milind Borkar, Vice President of Sales, at Infinova. “Given the safety and security challenges faced within key cities in India today, we see our video technology playing a critical role in providing the surveillance needed on the ground. Our partnership with CNL Software and integration with Ipsecuritycenter PSIM ensures that the visual intelligence is provided in real-time to the right people; ensuring greater preparedness and faster response to potential threats.”

“Statistics show that urban areas are expected to house 40% of India’s population and will contribute a staggering 75% of India’s GDP within the next 15 years. Protecting these vast cities is therefore mission critical for India’s long-term economic success. With one of the fastest growing economies in the world, India has embraced technology and continues to invest in improving the future for all of its citizens”, adds Keith Bloodworth, CEO, at CNL Software. “India’s latest Smart City programme is a great example of forward thinking, ensuring major cities are connected, intelligent and most of all secure. We are pleased to be partnered with Infinova to provide Safe Smart City programmes in India.”
