PHILADELPHIA — ZeroEyes announced that its technology has progressed beyond its previous DTE (Developmental Testing and Evaluation) Designation to earn full SAFETY Act Designation.
Full Designation is granted only to technologies that have been thoroughly tested and proven their effectiveness in mitigating terrorism risks. It eliminates the third-party liability of all ZeroEyes’ customers for claims resulting from acts of terrorism when the platform is in use.
“The process of receiving this Designation required us to demonstrate several years of pressure testing to DHS to ensure that our technology is sound, reliable and delivers what we promise,” said Mike Lahiff, CEO and co-founder of ZeroEyes. “As a result, we now provide significant value in liability protection, especially to our commercial enterprise customers, including stadiums, shopping malls, and third-party logistics companies.”
To obtain full Designation, ZeroEyes demonstrated that its solution has a history of successful deployment and has been thoroughly tested and evaluated. Liability protection has been expanded to all ZeroEyes’ customers until mid-2029.
In order to secure full Designation, ZeroEyes worked closely with consultant Dave McWhorter, PhD, founder and CEO of The Homeland Security Consulting Group and former Deputy Project Leader on DHS’ SAFETY Act program itself.
“It has been an honor working with the ZeroEyes team to ensure that its pioneering technology is the first AI-based gun detection solution to be recognized by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as an effective anti-terrorism technology,” McWhorter stated. “This Designation is a testament to the platform’s reliability and efficacy, measured through rigorous testing, evaluation, and real-life events.”
