An in-depth look at how ISS’s Anton Gomza, Head of Engineering and Product Strategy at ISS Middle East is shaping the company’s direction through innovative AI-driven solutions.
In an era where threats are more complex and unpredictable than ever, the demand for intelligent, proactive security solutions has reached unprecedented levels.
At Intelligent Security Systems (ISS), the company is proud to be at the forefront of this transformation – empowering governments, enterprises and critical infrastructure around the world with AI-driven video intelligence solutions that redefine what’s possible in security, surveillance and operational efficiency.
ISS at a glance
ISS, a US-based company with a global presence, stands at the forefront of video innovation.
With over three decades of experience and deployments in more than 50 countries, the company holds a portfolio of over 30 patents and trademarks, leading the charge in pioneering the next wave of video analytics.
The core of ISS offering is SecurOS – a resilient, flexible and scalable video-intelligence platform that combines video management with deep AI analytics to deliver timely, actionable insights.
Built as an end-to-end ecosystem, SecurOS plays well with most third-party security systems and devices, giving organisations the freedom to pick the tools that work for them.
The ISS portfolio features a wide range of both hardware and software solutions, including SecurOS VMS, SecurOS FaceX, SecurOS LPR, SecurOS UVSS, SecurOS Cargo Terminal, SecurOS Tracking Kit, among others.
These technologies have been instrumental in driving smart-city transformation, fostering economic growth, enhancing public safety and promoting environmental sustainability.
By equipping governments and agencies with better emergency communications, surveillance and crime-analysis tools, ISS helps communities respond faster and live safer.
Crucially, their focus is on prevention – spotting and stopping incidents before they happen, rather than just investigating what went wrong afterward.
What we offer
Anton Gomza, Director of Engineering and Product Strategy for the Middle East at ISS, is emerging as the new face of AI for the company, driving innovation across one of the world’s most dynamic regions.
With a strong background in engineering and deep expertise in AI-powered video analytics, Gomza plays a key role in transforming ISS’s solutions into proactive, intelligent platforms that go beyond traditional surveillance.
His strategic vision blends advanced technologies – such as facial recognition, object tracking and behavioural analysis – with practical, region-specific applications tailored to the unique needs of Middle Eastern markets.
As a bridge between cutting-edge innovation and real-world deployment, Anton is shaping the future of smart security systems in the region, positioning ISS as a leader in responsible and scalable AI implementation.
“At ISS, we see video as much more than surveillance,” said Gomza. “Our goal is simple: Turn video into data, and data into intelligence. Using AI and advanced analytics, we help organisations not just watch their environments but actually understand them so they can make smarter decisions, boost safety and run operations more efficiently,” continued Gomza.
“Whether it’s easing traffic in a smart city, keeping critical infrastructure compliant or improving the customer experience in retail, our solutions are built to deliver practical value. We don’t treat video as just a security tool – it’s a powerful source of data that can inform every level of an organisation.”
ISS customises its solutions per client needs, ensuring interoperability with existing infrastructure, enhanced surveillance capabilities and scalable technologies tailored to diverse operational requirements.
“As we navigate the complexities of local markets, we have meticulously tailored our portfolio to meet the unique needs of our clients, ensuring we remain agile and responsive. This strategic approach not only fosters trust and loyalty among our partners but also solidifies our position as a leader in the industry,” added Gomza.
“Our company’s success depends on meeting today’s needs and anticipating tomorrow’s.
“Our satellite R&D teams in Abu-Dhabi, Dubai and Riyadh continuously refine our offerings to align with regional regulations and the specific demands of the local market,” concluded Gomza.
A suite of AI-powered security modules
The ISS SecurOS platform comprises a comprehensive suite of proprietary AI modules designed to deliver unmatched automation, precision and intelligence across a wide range of security and surveillance applications.
At the heart of the suite is the SecurOS Video Management Software, which offers AI-powered video analytics capabilities such as licence plate recognition (LPR), face recognition, situational awareness, behavioural analytics, labour safety, compliance monitoring and traffic incident detection.
Drawing data from diverse systems, it allows users to view live and recorded videos while also running native analytics for a broad spectrum of security scenarios.
Available as a complete end-to-end solution operating on ISS video servers, the platform also integrates with third-party systems including access control, fire alarms and building management platforms.
Among the standout modules is SecurOS Auto, a powerful LPR solution that uses deep learning and template-based algorithms to accurately capture licence plate and vehicle data – even at speeds up to 250 km/h. Engineered for all weather conditions including fog, rain and snow, this module provides mission-critical vehicle information with remarkable precision.
Complementing this is SecurOS Face Recognition, a high-accuracy biometric identification tool configured to respect privacy standards and ethical AI practices.
Tailored for high-throughput environments such as airports and stadiums, it enables secure, contactless identity verification in real-time.
Moreover, the SecurOS Cargo module addresses the needs of logistics and port facilities by using advanced image processing to read ISO codes on cargo containers.
Ideal for deployment at port entrances, weigh stations and other logistics points, this tool helps optimise cargo management processes, significantly reducing liability while increasing throughput and tracking accuracy.
For behavioural surveillance, the SecurOS Tracking Kit – Behavioral Analytics module detects suspicious activity, loitering and crowd formation before incidents escalate.
By analysing motion patterns and body posture in real-time, it enables early intervention and improves safety in high-traffic zones like transportation hubs, retail environments and large public gatherings.
Additionally, the SecurOS Tracking Kit – Object Detection & Tracking enhances situational awareness by identifying unattended items, tracking movements across multiple cameras and generating real-time alerts.
This capability supports centralised monitoring, aids in threat detection and loss prevention and boosts operational efficiency across large facilities.
Another key offering is the SecurOS Intellisection, a suite of ITS-focused modules, designed for traffic management. Powered by neural network algorithms, it detects anomalies on roadways, including accidents and moving violations, with high reliability and accuracy.
Lastly, SecurOS UVSS provides a robust solution for under-vehicle surveillance. Combining advanced imaging with software intelligence, this module inspects a vehicle’s undercarriage for explosives, contraband and structural anomalies.
It integrates seamlessly with LPR systems and access control tools, making it an ideal solution for securing critical infrastructure and high-risk locations.
The SecurOS suite offers an ecosystem of AI-driven security tools that address the full spectrum of modern surveillance needs, from intelligent video analytics to transportation safety and access control.
