Silent Sentinel has been acquired by Motorola Solutions Inc.

The shareholders of Silent Sentinel have sold the business to Motorola Solutions Inc.

Founded in 2002, Silent Sentinel is an award-winning, globally recognized provider of high-specification surveillance and intelligent detection systems for the homeland security market. It offers customers a unique value proposition by designing and supplying tailor-made, high-end technology solutions (all built around its proprietary and market defining NexOS operating software). The technology is primarily used to protect complex and extreme environments associated with military, aviation, maritime and critical infrastructure. The senior leadership team at Silent Sentinel will remain in their current roles, reporting to Mark Schmidl, senior vice president of international sales at Motorola Solutions.

Motorola Solutions is a global leader in end-to-end video security solutions. The deal complements Motorola Solutions’ portfolio of fixed video cameras, expanding its footprint with government and critical infrastructure customers and strengthens its position as global frontrunner in delivering end-to-end video security solutions.
