Security for transit agencies, terminals and transportation operators
Transit and transportation operators are responsible for the safety of millions of passengers and employees across stations, vehicles, terminals and operations centres. Fortega builds security programs for Canadian transit agencies, terminals, airports, ports and commercial transportation operators that protect riders, staff and infrastructure — without slowing the system down.
What transit operators face
Assault and harassment of frontline staff — operators, station agents, fare inspectors — has climbed sharply, demanding duress, verified response and evidentiary video as baseline controls.
Fare evasion, vandalism and trespass on rights-of-way create both revenue and safety problems, and only become tractable with networked video and analytics.
Critical-infrastructure cyber threat against signalling, control and operations systems is growing. Many transit networks still run legacy systems on flat networks.
Public-facing incident response — assault, medical, suspicious package — demands that operations centres see every camera, every panic and every alarm in one place, in real time.
Fortega's transit approach
Coverage prioritises stations, platforms, parkades, vehicles and terminals with evidentiary retention. Camera placement is engineered for sight lines, lighting changes and the reality of large passenger flows.
Operations-centre integration brings video, access, panic and alarm onto a single situational-awareness layer so dispatchers see the full picture during an incident.
On the cyber side, we segment operations, signalling and corporate networks, harden building and station systems and run incident-response programs aligned to CCCS guidance and customer-driven frameworks.
