Written by the company

Athena Security develops advanced AI-powered security technologies designed to help hospitals, schools, and public venues detect threats, prevent violence, and create safer environments without disrupting daily operations. The company combines intelligent weapons detection systems, AI-assisted X-ray screening, and modern visitor management into a unified platform that automates security workflows and reduces human error. Athena’s systems can identify firearms, knives, and other dangerous items—including non-ferrous and 3D-printed weapons—while maintaining high throughput so facilities can screen people quickly and safely. By integrating screening with visitor identity verification, watch-list checks, and incident reporting, Athena enables organizations to move beyond simple metal detection toward a more comprehensive and proactive safety strategy. Athena also augments security teams with AI agents and virtual officer technologies that support staff in real time. These tools help detect bypass attempts, verify that screening procedures are followed correctly, monitor operator performance, and flag persons of interest while maintaining human-in-the-loop oversight. With features such as telepresence security officers, AR-enabled alerts for guards, centralized review dashboards, and edge AI running on devices like iPads, Athena allows one officer to oversee multiple entrances while maintaining strong security coverage. The result is a scalable, cost-efficient security ecosystem that helps organizations protect people, reduce risk, and support safer communities.

My company just installed the Athena…

My company just installed the Athena concealed weapon detection system, after a lot of research, including walk-through metal detectors.  With varying threats, it's important to work with local authorities, community leaders, and buy the best technology possible.  Athena also has the best remote monitoring capabilities.
