Power grids, pipelines, submarine cables and railway networks often stretch across hundreds of kilometers, making continuous monitoring a challenge. At the same time, growing infrastructure networks and increasing security threats demand faster situational awareness and more effective protection.
Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) addresses these challenges by turning fiber optic cables into continuous sensors. The technology detects, classifies and locates potential threats in real time, helping operators protect critical assets and respond before incidents escalate.
But how does this work in practice, and what role does intelligent data analysis play?
In an interview with GIT SECURITY, AP Sensing CEO Clemens Pohl discusses the technology, its applications and real-world examples of critical infrastructure monitoring.
