Understanding Critical Infrastructure & Utilities Security

Singapore's critical infrastructure — 13 power generation facilities, water treatment and NEWater plants, gas terminals, and telecommunications exchanges — underpins the nation's essential services for 5.9 million residents. Designated under the Infrastructure Protection Act, these facilities operate under the highest security classifications with zero tolerance for breaches.

PICO Guards deploys vetted officers trained for critical infrastructure assignments, operating under heightened security protocols with 24/7 SIOC priority monitoring. Our integrated approach combines manned guarding, video analytics, virtual patrols, lone worker monitoring, and controlled access systems to ensure continuous, uninterrupted facility protection.
