The Challenge
A national civil protection authority, responsible for managing large-scale emergencies such as floods, wildfires and earthquakes, required a GPS localisation system to monitor field teams in real time.The objectives were twofold:
To coordinate interventions swiftly and effectively.
To safeguard the security of personnel operating in high-risk environments.
The primary concern was the vulnerability of geolocation data. In sensitive scenarios, a cyber attack could expose the strategic movements of response teams or even manipulate coordinates, slowing down relief efforts and endangering lives.
The Solution: Cyber-Resilient Localisation for Emergency Response
Uniquon delivered a a cyber-resilient localisation platform, specifically designed to meet the standards of critical infrastructure and ensure the safe tracking of field teams.
The system includes:
Advanced encryption to protect GPS data transmitted from operators’ smartphones.
Multi-factor authentication and zero-trust architecture, eliminating unauthorised access.
Tokenisation of identities, separating personal data from geographical coordinates.
AI-driven cyber detection systems, capable of identifying and neutralising intrusion attempts or GPS spoofing in real time.
The Results
Complete data security: no breaches recorded, even in high-exposure crisis scenarios.
Operational continuity: teams remained constantly trackable, with reliable and tamper-proof information.
Protection of human life: both operators and civilians benefitted from a system immune to cyber compromise.
Enhanced reputation: the civil protection authority strengthened its position as a modern, efficient and secure organisation.
The Value for the Client
Uniquon’s solution transformed GPS localisation from a potential weakness into a strategic security asset. Today, civil protection teams can respond with speed and
