Saudi Telecom Company (STC), have entered into agreement with Nurizon Corporation to be the exclusive provider for its mobile data and two-way communications requirements in its Public Safety and Homeland Security Solutions provisions in the Kingdom. Christopher Riddell, chief executive officer for Nurizon, said “this latest alliance of Nurizon's demonstrates our continued commitment and aggressive growth in the region.” He added that “Saudi Telecom Company is internationally recognized as the leading provider for high speed GSM communication in the Kingdom, and we are delighted to be able to work so closely to provide value added services for the network, and provide such a reliable network backbone for our valued customers.” STC is working continuously to fulfil and satisfy the market requirements, keeping pace with the emerging technologies in the telecommunications sector and satisfying its customer's needs. STC has put in its consideration that, this is the way to reinforce its position and identity in view of a changing world where the role and usage of telecommunications is becoming more significant and widespread. All of the police vehicles from Nurizon Corporation include Arabic and English Licence Plate Recognition technology, which is often also referred to as ANPR (Advanced Number Plate Recognition) or LPR (Licence Plate Recognition). This provides the security and law enforcement agencies with the most accurate and instant verification of vehicle ownership and latest intelligence information, without the need of a police officer having to pick up a telephone or radio, to make a check on the vehicle manually. Officers are automatically alerted by an audible alarm, and a message on the touchscreen installed in the vehicle, whenever a vehicle ‘hit' is discovered. The Security Forces in Saudi Arabia have adopted the Nurizon Licence Plate Recognition Systems as part of a larger strategy of security upgrades across the Kingdom which Nurizon are strategically involved in, including the Automated Traffic Violations and Monitoring project. __
