Security officers of companies & public bodies

The security officer answers for an organisation’s people, sites and information — to management, to the authorities and, for classified work, to the National Security Authority. Incidents, guard reports, camera images and visitor lists often sit in separate systems. Meridian brings them into one picture and one record, inside your own environment.

The challenge
  1. 01

    One incident, five places to look

    Today

    A guard’s report, a camera clip, a badge log, a visitor list and an email from the night shift: after an incident the picture is rebuilt by hand from separate systems, often the next morning.

    With Meridian

    Reports, photos, camera images and positions come together in one case with a timeline on the map, so the picture is complete while the incident is still running.

  2. 02

    Drones and intruders around the site

    Today

    Since the drone flights over Belgian military camps and the Doel nuclear plant in late 2025, a sighting over a sensitive site is taken seriously. But it usually travels by phone and email, and is hard to compare with earlier ones.

    With Meridian

    Each sighting goes on the map with time, place and photos, and the data layer links it to earlier ones — so a pattern across nights or sites stands out, and you can hand the police a complete record.

  3. 03

    Proving what was done

    Today

    After an incident, management, auditors or the authorities ask who knew what, and when. The answer is pieced together from mailboxes and logbooks.

    With Meridian

    Every report, decision and look at a case is recorded in a log inside your own environment, with the sources attached — a record you can show, without sending your data to anyone.

In the news
Logistics & cross-border investigations

The parcels crossed borders. The evidence had to follow.

A warehouse fire and a damaged shipment can begin as separate incidents. Understanding whether they belong to one operation requires connecting evidence across companies, countries and investigative teams.

Energy & civil resilience

The cable was damaged. The consequences spread across the city.

A power outage becomes a coordination problem long before repairs are complete. Operators, emergency services and local authorities need different information about the same streets, facilities and people needing assistance.

Sovereignty & secure communications

The meeting is online. Who controls the room?

A video call brings people together. Its software, hosting, identity service and maintenance arrangements determine who controls the environment around that conversation. France’s Visio programme makes that operational choice visible.

Government & private sector

The message is encrypted. Who is in the conversation?

A government crisis team and a private operator need to exchange information quickly. A familiar messaging app makes that easy. It does not settle who controls the accounts, who still belongs in the group or what happens when a device is compromised.

Electricity & connected data

The grid went dark. The explanation took months.

At 12:33 on 28 April 2025, continental Spain and Portugal lost power. Reconstructing the event required evidence from across the electricity system. For a Belgian operator such as ELIA, the lesson is about connecting operational context without confusing it with grid control.

Aviation & supplier dependencies

The airport was open. Check-in was not.

In September 2025, a supplier incident disrupted check-in at several European airports, including Brussels. A problem in one shared service became a coordination problem for airlines, airport teams and passengers.

Public safety

The attacker is seventeen. The order came from abroad.

In March 2026, synagogues, a Jewish school and American banks were attacked in Liège, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Paris. Most of those arrested were teenagers, recruited over social media. What the series shows about how threats reach Europe today — and how they are stopped.

Airports & critical sites

The drone is in the air. The pilot is on the ground.

A year after the first drone alarms over Belgian bases and airports, nobody has been identified. Detecting a drone is only half the problem. The other half is getting from a sighting to a person.
