Recognising that the advent of the oil and gas sector will pose new security challenges, STARR Computers is partnering with a US-based software development company, DIGIFORT, to offer access to modern surveillance technology.
The local technology company’s Chief Executive Officer Mike Mohan told Stabroek Business that while the advent of oil and gas is a “new and exciting development” in the economy, it also presents “new challenges for developing countries like Guyana,” which government, the oil companies and the country as a whole cannot afford to ignore.
DIGIFORT specialises in video surveillance software and video monitoring intelligence and the partnership will enable STARR to bring the company’s predictive surveillance software and related Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities to Guyana in order to provide local law-enforcement, businesses and ordinary consumers modern technologies to work with their existing available hardware.
