Border Security

National Borders are a security issue for all Governments and porous Borders can lead to smuggling of people, drugs, weapons and contraband, which help fund criminal activity and can lead to severe social problems across the globe.

Insecure Borders can also lead to more severe issues such as insurrection, incursion and terrorist activity.

In order for Governments to protect the nation state and their citizens it is vitally important that they control their Borders effectively. However, this can often present quite a challenge as Borders may run for hundreds if not thousands of kilometres through varying and sometimes hostile terrain.

Westminster can provide a wide range of Border Security solutions for the surveillance, detection and screening of persons crossing national land, sea or air Borders.
