Zak Doffman, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Barriers, said: “Our US business continues to make good progress, where we are utilizing the framework agreements in place to sell specialist technology to key government customers and generate follow-on sales. Today’s contract award continues to highlight the rationale for our acquisition of Brimtek, which enables us to sell and deliver a wider range of technologies into the US surveillance market. Meanwhile, the ThruVis contract award, into a new and important customer in Africa, again illustrates the uniqueness of this technology which delivers a level of protection unavailable from any other technology in the marketplace.”
