Advanced Maritime Barrier Systems

About HALO Maritime Defense Systems

HALO Maritime Defense Systems works across industries to secure critical assets with a waterside perimeter.

HALO saves lives and protects assets through the design of waterside security systems.

Each barrier is rigorously tested by independent, third parties and proven to work in all near shore and offshore environments. HALO Maritime Defense Systems was founded in 2008, with a vision to protect vital assets by extending physical security to the waterside. Today, HALO Maritime Defense Systems works across industries to secure critical assets with a waterside perimeter. We continue to help governments to secure Naval ships and bases, ports, and airports – as well as helping energy companies secure rigs, refineries, vessels in port, nuclear power plants, LNG tankers, and other waterside facilities. HALO security solutions are the only waterside barrier system on the market to have been rigorously tested by the US Navy with independent verification of the results.
