Milestone Systems, the open platform company within IP video management software, is being used by Fraport AG to improve both security and operational excellence at Varna and Burgas Airports in Bulgaria. RAD Group has installed Milestone XProtect™ Enterprise software, operating several hundred Axis network cameras in both airports, with IBM servers and Cisco network infrastructure.
At the end of 2006 the German-Bulgarian consortium of the airport operator Fraport AG and the Bulgarian logistics company BM Star won a bid for the operation of both Varna and Burgas Airports - gateways to the popular Bulgarian Black Sea tourist region that includes Sunny Beach. Called the ‘Summer Capital' of Bulgaria, Varna and Burgas Airports are at the heart of the area, which includes developed business communities, close to both resorts and transport facilities. Over a 35-year concession period, Fraport Twin Star Airport Management will be operating and investing in the development of both coastal airports.
