Athena Security to Demonstrate Integrated Hospital Visitor Management and Concealed Weapons Detection at ISC West in Las Vegas

Athena Security will showcase its seamless entryway system at booth #8140, and visitors can also inquire about the two new AI Agents launching in April.

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Athena Security today announced that it will showcase its unified entryway security platform at ISC West, highlighting how an integrated Hospital Visitor management system and concealed weapons detection systems can work together to help hospitals, schools, and public venues strengthen entryway security while preparing for emerging legislative requirements such as California’s Assembly Bill 2975.

As organizations face growing pressure to protect staff and visitors while maintaining smooth operations, Athena Security’s approach combines hospital Visitor Management Systems (VMS) with Concealed Weapons Detection System (WDS) into a single coordinated platform designed to identify both who is entering a facility and what they may be carrying before access is granted.

“Security leaders don’t just need to know that a threat exists — they need to know who is entering their facility and what they may have with them now or in the past,” states Chris Ciabarra, co-founder and CTO of Athena Security. “When Hospital visitor management and concealed weapons detection work together as one platform, organizations gain visibility, speed, security, and control at the entryway. Others stop at detection, but that’s where we begin.”

Athena’s integrated system allows organizations to verify a visitor’s identity, cross-check Person of Interest (POI) lists in real-time, screen for potential weapons, and automatically associate prior events with individuals inside a single platform. This unified approach streamlines the process, simplifies reporting, and improves response coordination without requiring security teams to manage multiple disconnected systems.

Athena Security’s unified entryway platform is a response and solution for the new state mandates being issued, such as California Assembly Bill (AB 2975), which requires hospitals to deploy both technologies to protect staff and patients. By combining these capabilities within a single entryway system, Athena enables organizations to address compliance requirements while simplifying operations for already strained security budgets and teams.

Athena Security’s unified entryway security platform is designed to help organizations:

• Verify visitor identity before facility entry
• Screen individuals for potential weapons using advanced detection technology
• Automatically associate screening events with visitor records
• Enable rapid investigation through centralized reporting
• Coordinate security responses, such as alerts or lockdown procedures

Athena Security will demonstrate its integrated entryway security platform at ISC West Booth #8140, where attendees can experience how concealed weapons detection and hospital visitor management operate seamlessly to identify risks earlier, while at the same time, improving the flow of visitors entering sensitive facilities.

ISC West attendees can ask an Athena team member about the VIP private preview of its two first-to-market AI agent technologies launching in April. Athena Security continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in intelligent security systems.
