Gallagher Security has announced the release of the latest addition to its controller product range, the High Security Controller 7000 (High Sec C7000) to the American market.

High Sec C7000

According to the company, the High Sec C7000 provides customers with the confidence that Gallagher will continue to meet the highest standards of countries in the Five Eyes Alliance and ensure they’re meeting their compliances with confidence and a future-proofed vision.

The High Sec C7000 has been designed with all the features of the recently released C7000 Enhanced.

Gallagher states that the new release also incorporates all the core functions of the C7000 Standard variant released 18 months ago, while expanding capabilities in key areas to deliver customers enhanced reliability, resilience, redundancy and cybersecurity.

“A step further with higher security”

Jim Rayner, Product Manager, Gallagher Security commented: “While the Controller 7000 Standard already has excellent cybersecurity functionality, the High Sec C7000 goes a step further with higher security government and commercial applications firmly in mind.”

He continued: “We’re increasingly seeing an appetite for large users who need solutions that are certified to be used on critical national infrastructure.

“These are not necessarily government sites but also commercial enterprises seeking to mitigate risk to ensure business continuity.

“These users are wanting devices that are PIV-ready to get that extra level of security – they want to get ahead of emerging threats,” Rayner concluded.

Compliance

The company notes that the High Sec C7000 is built with FIPS compliant components and as with previous High Sec generations, has been approved by the GSA and is PIV-compliant (FIPS 201-3).

It has also achieved UL/ULC compliance and meets Class 5 standards which require monitoring of cabling between device and controller for Australia and New Zealand high security customers including government, defense, prisons and data centers, Gallagher adds.
