(JNS.org) The Israeli security company ISDS has been selected to provide security during the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games. The company has been given a $2.2 billion security budget for the event. “We already have teams operating in Brazil, and unofficially operated there during the World Cup last summer,” ISDS Vice President Ron Shafran told Globes. “Our teams are already preparing for the Olympics, designing our security concept and building technological systems to be installed at the various facilities where the competitions will take place in Rio and four other regions around the country.” Shafran said the company will integrate “the right technologies from Israel and the rest of the world” for the Olympics.
