Critical Infrastructure Security
Specialist protection for cell phone network infrastructure, power installations, and critical national assets.
GTS provides dedicated security for critical infrastructure assets, including major network, power, and fibre sites. Our teams are trained specifically for the unique threat profiles of cell phone network infrastructure, substations, and fibre networks, deploying LPR monitoring and tactical response protocols.
Throughout our relationship with Bidvest, we manage key cell phone network infrastructure around the country. Infrastructure crime — cable theft, equipment 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.
