Critical Infrastructure Security
Specialist protection for telecom towers, power stations, and critical national assets.
GTS provides dedicated security for critical infrastructure assets, including major telecom, power, and fibre-network sites. Our teams are trained specifically for the unique threat profiles of telecom towers, substations, and fibre networks, deploying LPR monitoring and tactical response protocols.
Infrastructure crime — cable theft, tower vandalism, substation intrusion — costs South Africa billions each year. GTS has proven our model works: our critical-infrastructure security programme delivered an 85% reduction in infrastructure incidents within 90 days.

Technology Deployed at Critical Sites
Protecting critical infrastructure requires more than a guard at a gate. GTS deploys an integrated technology layer at every infrastructure site — combining LPR, AI surveillance, drone oversight, and real-time control room integration to create a comprehensive perimeter intelligence system.
Vehicle-mounted LPR units assigned to escort teams and infrastructure patrol vehicles. Real-time plate recognition of approaching vehicles.
Perimeter LPR cameras at high-risk sites. Automatic alert on unregistered or watchlisted vehicles.
AI-enhanced cameras for perimeter monitoring, line-crossing detection, and after-hours intrusion alerts.
On-demand aerial surveillance for site assessment, perimeter inspection, and active incident monitoring.
All site technology feeds directly into the GTS Tactical Operations Centre — not to a third-party monitoring station.
Client SLA: GTS provides documented SOPs for each infrastructure client. Technology performance is reported monthly. Incident footage is made available within an agreed timeframe — subject to POPIA controls.
