UK Security Expo announces the launch of the Live Operations Center, a major new feature which will take central stage at the event on the 29-30 November 2017 at London Olympia. A major new initiative that has not been seen at any security exhibition before, the Live Operations Center will recreate the exact environment used by Security, Intelligence Agencies and Police globally.

It will illustrate dynamically how the multiple agencies including Military, Civil and Police along with government and media, work together to carry out operations and keep major public events safe and secure.

The unique feature which will bind all the strands of security together was inspired by Lord Jonathan Evans, former Chief of MI5 and UK Security Expo will also be working in close collaboration with Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, former Commissioner of the Met Police to ensure that the feature truly reflects that of a real Operations Center.

Live Operations Center

The Live Operations Center will enable attendees to see live technologies in action and participate in scenario based training exercises to show how data, intelligence, physical and personnel capabilities combine to tackle the most serious of threats.

Attendees will be able to take a seat and watch an operation get under way, understand the role of the various technologies and the process of planning or responding to an incident.

They will be able to see first-hand how the information and intelligence drawn from a mass of various technologies including check point, biometrics, surveillance, CCTV, access control and perimeters is fed through and how the decision-making process works.
