Emergency Services

As part of the UK’s Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR), civil emergencies, such as natural disasters and major accidents are now placed in the highest risk security category. Such events are viewed as posing serious threats to national security – endangering the welfare of our citizens, as well as having a significant impact on the UK economy.

In parallel with natural threats, the rise of terrorism and e-crime, and the associated security threats they bring to bear against the UK, provide new and difficult challenges for the security agencies and emergency services.

Critical to the successful implementation and execution of any emergency responses, are systems that must be respondent, available and secure. Without such guarantees, the emergency services’ ability to respond in an effective and timely manner will be seriously compromised.

For over 20 years, VEGA has worked with all branches of the UK’s emergency services, providing bespoke information assurance and secure systems solutions that support our clients across government and defence in developing secure IT systems that help ensure the delivery of improved and mission-critical capability.

With a breadth and depth of proven capability, second to none, our specialists are embedded within many of the UK’s security and emergency services, providing in-depth expertise to ensure, with absolute confidence, that those systems on which they depend for our protection and welfare, are designed, protected and supported for optimum performance.

The company’s ARCHANGEL™ Protective Monitoring System is already in service, providing around-the-clock monitoring and protection to key UK government suppliers.

We combine proven methodology and innovation, with skills and experience that are kept up-to-date and relevant, providing ongoing assurance that assists in managing risk. We are the UK leader in data sharing services, helping the security agencies, government departments, and the military develop ICT solutions that facilitate secure information sharing, adding substantial value to intelligence and front-line operational capability.
