Enact Holdings' Fortior Solutions Secures SAFETY Act Renewal for RAPIDGate® System

Fortior Solutions Reinforces Security Commitment with SAFETY Act Renewal for RAPIDGate® System

Fortior Solutions, a Hillsboro, Oregon-based company, has secured a renewal of both Designation and Certification for its RAPIDGate® System from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under the SAFETY Act. This renewal, granted on January 8, 2025, affirms the RAPIDGate System as an Approved Product for Homeland Security, reflecting its efficacy in mitigating terrorism risks. The SAFETY Act, established after the September 11 attacks, mandates rigorous evaluations of technologies to ensure they meet stringent performance and safety standards. The renewal is particularly significant, as it is awarded to a limited number of technologies that undergo extensive scrutiny.

The renewed Certification and Designation provide critical legal protections for Fortior Solutions’ customers and suppliers. Specifically, the Designation offers a safeguard against liability claims related to terrorism when utilizing the RAPIDGate System. Concurrently, the Certification grants a rebuttable presumption of immunity from such claims, ensuring that users can confidently implement the system until April 30, 2030. Jim Robell, the company’s president and CEO, highlights Fortior Solutions' dedication to continually evolving its products to address emerging terrorism threats, positioning the RAPIDGate System as a vital tool in national security efforts.

The versatility and application of the RAPIDGate System extend across various sectors, including military, government, and critical infrastructure. It provides secure access for vendors, contractors, and visitors, thereby enhancing overall security protocols. Fortior Solutions counts among its clientele numerous branches of the U.S. military, including the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Navy, and Space Force, as well as critical infrastructure entities such as National Laboratories and the casino industry. This broad utilization underlines the RAPIDGate System's significance in fortifying security across the continental U.S., Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and Guam.

In addition to strengthening its product offerings, the renewal of the SAFETY Act Designation and Certification underscores Fortior Solutions' commitment to providing reliable security solutions. The company continues to play a pivotal role in advancing anti-terrorism technologies, ensuring that its clients remain protected and well-equipped to handle potential threats in a rapidly changing security landscape. This achievement not only enhances the company's reputation but also solidifies its standing as a key player in the homeland security sector.

As Fortior Solutions moves forward, the emphasis on innovation and safety remains paramount, reinforcing its mission to protect communities and critical infrastructures from the evolving landscape of terrorism threats.
