Partner News: IntelliSee Earns DHS QATT Designation

Phoenix, AZ – December 9, 2025 - IntelliSee, a security integration partner of AtlasIED, announced their AI-powered safety platform has officially received the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology (QATT) Designation under the SAFETY Act. This designation recognizes technologies proven to play a critical role in preventing, mitigating, and responding to acts of terrorism, confirming IntelliSee’s proactive vision for a safer world.

As threats evolve, from active shooters to coordinated attacks, organizations need proven tools that enhance safety without compromise. This designation affirms what IntelliSee customers already know: IntelliSee’s AI is dependable, effective, and built to protect what matters most.


What the DHS QATT Designation Means

The Risk & Why the SAFETY Act Matters

Organizations face increasing exposure to high-severity risks, including weapon violence, targeted attacks, and large-scale security incidents. U.S. DHS created the SAFETY Act (Support Anti-terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies) to encourage the deployment of technologies that materially reduce these risks.

The Act provides two important assurances for approved technologies:

  • Validation of Effectiveness — DHS has reviewed, tested, and verified the technology’s performance.
  • Liability Protections — Organizations using approved technologies receive significant liability protections if an act of terrorism occurs.

For safety leaders, QATT isn’t a marketing term; it’s a federally validated signal that your technology is trustworthy, effective, and qualified by the highest level of national risk-mitigation review.
