The security departments strive to control numerous causes of risks for goods, passengers, infrastructures and information systems. The challenge they face is to prevent, act and minimize any threat. In this context comes SAURON, a project funded by the European Union under the H2020 program, coordinated by the Valenciaport Foundation and together with S2 Grupo and the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), which provides ports with a holistic security system advanced combining physical-cybernetic threats through advanced information and visualization systems.
