Case Study: Kia Georgia achieves 100% CTPAT compliance with Asylon’s perimeter security drones

Kia Georgia achieves 100% CTPAT compliance with Asylon

Kia Georgia, Kia's only U.S. manufacturing plant, faced a significant challenge in securing its extensive 14.2-mile perimeter fence. The rough terrain made manual inspections costly, consuming multiple security vehicles annually and requiring substantial personnel time, which put its compliance with CTPAT anti-terrorism regulations at risk. To address this, the company turned to vendor Asylon for a solution using their Guardian automated drone security system.

Asylon implemented its aerial surveillance drone system to perform detailed, automated fence line inspections. This solution completely eliminated the need for roving vehicles and manual checks. The results were substantial, yielding $60,000 in annual savings and ensuring 100% CTPAT compliance. Furthermore, Asylon's technology freed up security personnel to better support production needs, reallocating internal resources more effectively.
