Statements from AMAG Technology

"Earning NPSA accreditation demonstrates AMAG’s commitment to delivering trusted, future-ready security solutions that meet advanced national standards," stated Ryan Howarth, Vice President, Technical Services at AMAG Technology.

He adds, "Our customers, particularly those in critical infrastructure, government, and enterprise sectors, can operate with confidence knowing that cyber assurance and physical protection are built into the DNA of every Symmetry Enterprise system we deliver."

Security framework and assurance

The enhanced Advanced Access Control Systems needs reinforce protection beyond the perimeter

The NPSA's Cyber Assurance of Physical Security Systems standard mandates that cyber defence is integrated at every phase of product development and manufacturing processes to guard against new digital security threats.

He further noted that this achievement exemplifies AMAG's commitment to merging innovation with accountability. Additionally, AMAG Technology plans to offer an NPSA training program for qualified customers.
