Gallagher Security only manufacturer to meet the updated AACS 2022 standard

Awarded by the UK Government’s National Technical Authority for Physical and Personnel Protective Security; National Protective Security Authority (NPSA), the AACS 2022 standard provides sites, including those home to critical national infrastructure (CNI ) with the assurance that Gallagher software and hardware meets the most stringent physical and cybersecurity requirements.

Richard Huison, Regional General Manager – UK and Europe, said: “This achievement demonstrates that our solutions have been designed from the ground up with an intrinsic level of security, and is confirmation of Gallagher’s dedication to cybersecurity.

“Our compliance with the AACS standard not only complements our CAPSS 2021 approval but provides every organisation who uses the Gallagher product with confidence they have the most up to date and cyber-resilient platform in the industry,” added Richard.
