GSN 2015 DIGITAL YEARBOOK OF HOMELAND SECURITY AWARDS RECIPIENTS Most Notable County/Municipal Program, Project or Initiative SAMMC (San Antonio Military Medical Center) Advanced Security Program, Suspect Search – Qognify (Formerly NICE Security) 2015 Winner Awards Category: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Most Notable County/Municipal Program, Project or Initiative Name of Nominated Product, Service, or Program: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SAMMC (San Antonio Military Medical Center) Advanced Security Program, Suspect Search Reason this entry deserves to win: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– In the early morning hours, a “code pink” alarm has been triggered. A newborn baby was moved from its bed. The RFID bracelet on her wrist triggered an alarm once she was past a predefined security access point. Automatically, video from relevant nearby cameras is streamed to the control room, revealing a fast walking figure, dressed in street clothing. The person is clearly visible when seen on the video camera closest to where the infant’s RFID bracelet triggered the alarm. That image is imported into the system, and within seconds, an album of pre-indexed persons appeared on the screen. From here, visual verification of the suspected person is swift, and his trail across the cameras is shown on the screen. The abductor was clever, selecting a course that would not be easily traceable otherwise. He knows the hospital well. But the system is smarter, and security personnel are dispatched. They track him down to the parking lot, before leaving hospital grounds. The infant is safe again. The above is not a true story, but based on many incidents that have occurred, nationwide, with hospital related crime on the rise*. But what if the right system is deployed – one that enables the happy ending described above? That potential happy ending is why this entry deserves to win. The San Antonio Military Medical Center (SAMMC), is the largest U.S. Department of Defense Military Medical facility and Level I Trauma and Burn Research Center. It is an expansive medical center; with over 2.1 million square feet. Its ER process- 120
es more than 5,700 emergency room visits a month and serves hundreds of thousands of U.S. service members and their families. SAMMC’s was an early adopter of Suspect Search video analytics solution, enabling personnel to track and locate missing patients or suspicious persons during time-critical scenarios. Qognify Suspect Search provides real-time forensics of surveillance video to locate a person of interest in situations when time is of the essence. Using a video image, uploaded photo, or user-generated composite (an “avatar”, based on verbal description of suspect, its clothing, etc)- Suspect Search can scan hours of video in minutes and automatically filter out 95 percent of irrelevant images. Its mapping capabilities provide geo-spatial awareness by retracing a suspect’s movements across cameras and pinpointing his current or last known locations on your premises. All images, related video, and locations associated with the search are digitally stamped and can be saved or shared among law enforcement agencies for use in investigations and prosecution. The adoption of Suspect Search builds on and integrates with SAMMC’s existing NiceVision video surveillance solution, which has been used to investigate incidents related to patient safety and well-being. Now, the combined solution helps SAMMC teams locate and track persons of interest in a matter of seconds and amidst hours of footage. The combined security program enables SAMMC benefits such as accelerated response times; contained impact of potential criminal or harmful activity; reduction in shutdown times and the associated negative impact on patient care. * Violent crimes at hospitals on the rise: Over 200 infant abductions documented from hospitals and other locations When Hospital Safeguards Against Drug Theft Aren’t Enough Link to Web Page of Nominated Organization: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– www.bamc.amedd.army.mil/sammc.asp Link to additional information on product, service or program, with brief description: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– www.qognify.com/suspect-search-next-generation-video-analytics/ Name and organization of nominating contact for this entry, including name, title, organization: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Hagar Lev, Marketing Director Qognify Nominating contact’s office telephone and cell phone: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– office: +49 (0) 69 97 17 738 cell: +49 (0) 171 1637-667 Nominating contact’s email address: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– hagar.lev@qognify.com Address of nominating contact’s organization: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 461 From Rd Paramus, NJ 07652 United States (C/O Steve Maron, @ NICE Systems Inc.) 121
