John McClane had it easy.

While Bruce Willis' hero cop saved Dulles International Airport from terrorists in Die Hard 2, real-world critical infrastructure faces threats that can't be solved in two hours—or with witty one-liners. When physical security matters most, mobile surveillance units become the real heroes.

Critical infrastructure needs more than Hollywood heroics. From power substations to water treatment plants, these vital facilities face constant security challenges. And here's the kicker: traditional fixed security systems leave gaps. Permanent solutions take time. And threats? They don’t wait for installation schedules.

That’s where LiveView Technologies® mobile surveillance units flip the script.

When Critical Infrastructure Needs Backup

Picture this drama: A power substation during maintenance. Physical security compromised. Surveillance offline. Critical infrastructure exposed. That’s when mobile protection becomes non-negotiable.

Critical infrastructure faces its most significant risks:

  • During system upgrades: When physical security goes offline, and critical assets need protection
  • Following natural disasters: When permanent surveillance fails, and mobile units become essential
  • During elevated threats: When critical infrastructure demands rapid security deployment.

Here’s the problem: Traditional security solutions don’t cut it during these critical windows. They’re expensive, inflexible, and many may require fixed infrastructure that might not be there when trouble hits.

Real-World Solutions: LVT in Action

This isn’t hypothetical—it’s happening right now across America’s critical infrastructure. The 

U.S. Department of Energy’s verdict? Physical security breaches cost utilities $1 billion annually in metal theft alone. 

How LVT Mobile Surveillance Units Tackle the Challenge

LVT’s mobile surveillance units deliver:

Just consider the Snohomish County PUD. When this Washington utility needed to protect critical infrastructure during upgrades, they didn’t call a real-life John McClane—they called LVT. Our mobile surveillance units, equipped with advanced physical security features, became their 24/7 digital force multiplier.

When Mother Nature Strikes Back

Hurricanes test Florida’s critical infrastructure. When they hit, power grids fail. Physical security systems go dark. And threats to vital assets? They multiply overnight.

The LVT Answer

Critical utilities that deploy LVT mobile security cameras won’t miss a beat. No power? No problem. No network? No sweat. LVT Units® will keep watch while crews restore services.

When Threats Go High, We Go Mobile 

Since 2020, federal, state, and municipal leaders across the U.S. have faced unprecedented security challenges—reaching some of the highest threat levels since the Civil War. The FBI’s warning about armed protests sent governors scrambling for solutions—and they needed them yesterday.

How LVT Handles the Heat

Speed is our superpower:

  • From truck to threat detection in minutes
  • AI that spots trouble before it starts
  • Visible deterrence that makes troublemakers think twice

Want proof? Ask state government leaders who deployed our mobile surveillance cameras during those tense days. Our cameras didn’t just watch—they prevented problems. Bad actors took one look at those towers and decided to behave.

The LVT Edge: Security at the Speed of Threats 

Think of us as your security SWAT team. But better—because we never need coffee breaks. LVT Units are:

Quick And Nimble

  • Set up quickly 
  • No wires, no hassle, no headaches

Smart Tech That Never Sleeps

Watching Your Bottom Line

Tomorrow’s Security, Today 

The security game is changing. Fixed cameras? That’s so 2020. Today’s threats need flexible solutions that scale up or down faster than an Avenger. 

We’re not just keeping up—we’re leading the charge with: 

  • AI smart enough to tell the difference between a dog walker and a prowler
  • Thermal vision that sees “Predator” and other bodies in the dark of night
  • Tech that integrates with your existing security system

The Bottom Line 

Hollywood’s got Bruce Willis. You’ve got LVT.

Our mobile units don’t need a script or a stunt double to protect:

  • Power grids that Americans need 
  • Water systems that communities count on
  • Transportation networks that drive the U.S. economy
  • Government facilities that can’t afford downtime
