Port authorities manage some of the most high-risk, high-traffic environments in the country, including seaports, border crossings, and inland ports of entry. These sites face constant pressure to maintain security, regulate cargo and vehicle flow, and prevent illegal activities.

Securing these vast, open areas is a complex task with perimeter gaps, poor lighting, and limited coverage creating opportunities for smuggling, trespassing, and theft. Agencies need solutions that work without the delays of fixed infrastructure or heavy IT involvement.

WCCTV provides portable, self-powered surveillance units that deliver immediate oversight across terminals, yards, customs zones, and border inspection points. Our cameras are built for mobility, supported by a managed service, and trusted to protect some of the most sensitive access points in the country.

Securing the Nation’s Gateways

Protecting Port Operations With Mobile Surveillance

Port authorities face a unique blend of security challenges, from managing high volumes of cargo and vehicle traffic to deterring illegal immigration, smuggling, and theft. With sprawling perimeters, multiple access points, and time-sensitive operations, traditional fixed surveillance often falls short.

WCCTV delivers rapid-deployment surveillance systems that support government agencies with real-time oversight without the need for trenching, cabling, or fixed infrastructure. Our solar-powered trailers and pole-mounted cameras help secure:

  • Customs and border protection zones
  • Truck inspection and staging areas
  • Cargo yards, docks, and freight terminals
  • Passenger checkpoints and vehicle crossings

Backed by a comprehensive managed service, our systems offer visibility, flexibility, and control for agencies tasked with protecting the nation’s most vital ports of entry.

LPR Camera Systems for Port Authority Security

WCCTV’s LPR camera systems give Port Authorities and Border Agencies the tools to monitor, log, and investigate vehicle activity at key entry points and restricted zones. Our LPR units help support ports dealing with cargo theft, unauthorized vehicle access, or vehicle-borne smuggling attempts by providing real-time plate recognition and fast, actionable data.

Our solar or pole-mounted LPR units capture plate data with high accuracy, day or night, and can identify vehicle make, model, color, and speed. This data is stored securely and can be accessed remotely via Stellifii.

  • Ideal for use at gates, entry lanes, and checkpoints
  • Detect suspicious vehicles before they gain access
  • Integrate with blacklists or watchlists to flag known offenders
  • No need for fixed infrastructure or manual checks

Leverage automatic detection to support investigations, streamline operations, and stop threats before they
