Which components of the PSG platform are now certified by UL?

Prometheus Security Group Global (PSG) has obtained UL certifications for three key elements of its Zero Trust physical security platform: the encrypted security interfaces DESI (Digitally Encrypted Security Interfaces), the hardware Universal Field Panel (UFP), and the software LINX Predator Elite. According to SDM Magazine, these certifications cover the entire physical security data path, from sensors and hardware to processing and monitoring systems.

The UL certifications validate technology initially designed for the most demanding national security environments, now accessible to a broader commercial audience.

Which UL standards are validated and what criteria are covered?

The certifications obtained by PSG include three major standards: UL 294, which evaluates access control systems in terms of resistance to destructive attacks, line security, and power failure management; UL 2610, related to commercial security and anti-intrusion alarm systems, including line monitoring and spoofing protection; and finally, UL 62368-1, which ensures electrical and mechanical safety of products, with protection against electric shocks, fires, and mechanical hazards. These certifications, detailed by SecurityInfoWatch, confirm PSG technology’s compliance with the strictest requirements in reliability and security.

Why is this certification an advancement for critical environments?

The PSG platform was initially designed for high-level national security environments, where event traceability, resilience, and reliability are essential, as explained by Jeremy Freeze-Skret, PSG’s vice president of engineering. The UL certifications, according to SDM Magazine, validate this expertise and now extend it to a broader commercial audience. PSG treats the physical security data path as a cybersecurity perimeter, where trust must begin at physical devices (Purdue Levels 0 and 1). This approach allows authenticating and verifying security signals from their source without requiring replacement of existing equipment.

What this means here: implications for businesses and administrations in West Africa

For businesses and administrations in Benin and West Africa, these UL certifications could ease the adoption of highly secure physical security solutions, particularly in critical sectors such as energy infrastructure, data centers, or financial institutions. Independent UL certifications would provide additional assurance regarding the reliability and resilience of systems, reducing risks associated with cyberattacks or hardware failures. Furthermore, integrating Zero Trust principles at physical levels (Purdue Levels 0 and 1) could inspire more robust local architectures, where traceability and authentication of security signals take priority.

Organizations could also benefit from a streamlined selection process for certified equipment, as highlighted by SecurityInfoWatch, accelerating deployments in projects requiring international standards. Finally, this development could encourage local players to assess hybrid solutions combining physical and cybersecurity, aligned with global best practices.
