Key benefits of a unified security platform for public transit agencies How a mass transit agency secures passengers and drivers onboard buses in Boston Each weekday, over 1.3 million commuters use public transit in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. That's why the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) upgraded the security onboard its fleet of over 1000 buses using Security Center Omnicastâ„¢ for video surveillance. Today, each bus has five cameras which the MBTA Operations Control Center team and police dispatch can access in real-time. During emergencies, officers can also view video using mobile laptops. A GPS integration is linked to the system and Google maps, letting users know each bus's location. Analysts can also quickly retrieve video clips without leaving their desks, helping to streamline investigations at MBTA.
