Critical Infrastructure
Ballistic Protection for the Assets That Keep the Grid Online.
Lightweight ballistic panel systems engineered to protect transformers, radiator banks, switchboards, data rooms and other mission critical infrastructure.
Asset-Level Survivability
Protect the Equipment, Not Just the Perimeter.
Critical infrastructure sites can encompass thousands of square feet, but only a limited number of components must remain operational following an attack.
Iten Defense develops ballistic protection systems around those mission critical assets. Our panel solutions can be integrated directly around transformers, cooling systems, electrical controls, data infrastructure and mission critical applications, helping protect critical equipment without relying exclusively on large scale concrete construction.
Mission Critical Applications
Protection Where Failure Is Not an Option.
From individual components to complete site systems, protection is configured around the asset, the credible threat and the installation environment.
01
Transformers & Radiator Banks
Ballistic panel systems developed to protect transformer tanks, cooling assemblies, radiators and other vulnerable components from defined ballistic threats.
02
Switchboards & Control Equipment
Protection for switchgear, control cabinets, electrical distribution equipment and systems essential to continued operation.
03
Data Rooms & Control Buildings
Ballistic reinforcement for data rooms, control centers, equipment enclosures and other occupied or mission essential structures.
04
Perimeter Security Systems
Modular armor panels engineered for integration with existing fencing, new perimeter systems and OEM security products.
Configured for the Site
Three Approaches to Infrastructure Hardening.
The right solution may protect a single high-consequence asset, a full perimeter or combine both approaches.
01 / Asset-Level
Concentrate Protection Where It Creates the Greatest Value.
Armor is configured around the specific equipment that must survive, reducing protected surface area, limiting structural impact and preserving access for inspection and maintenance.
- High-voltage transformers
- Radiator and cooling systems
- Switchgear and controls
- Data and communications equipment
02 / Perimeter
Upgrade Existing Security Infrastructure.
Modular armor panels can integrate with existing fence infrastructure or newly designed perimeter systems. Individual components can be adapted, expanded, repaired or relocated as site requirements evolve.
Optional modifications can be incorporated to help slow a kinetic breach and protect against runaway fires.
Deny visual path of protection to key assets.
03 / Hybrid Protection
Pair perimeter protection with additional armor around the highest-consequence assets for a layered site strategy.
Material Options
Engineered Around the Actual Threat.
Ballistic protection should be based on the site, the equipment and the credible threat, not a one-size-fits-all specification.
Fiberglass-Reinforced Armor
A durable, proven option for permanent infrastructure, perimeter systems, equipment enclosures and applications where structural weight is less restrictive.
UHMWPE Armor
A lightweight solution for applications where panel handling, transportation, mounting loads and installation efficiency are critical.
Material selection is based on threat requirements, environmental exposure, structural limitations and integration objectives.

From Requirement to Production
A Clear Path to Deployable Protection.
A disciplined process turns the site requirement into a testable, manufacturable and deployable protection system.
01
Define the Requirement
Identify the anticipated threat, protected asset, site conditions and operational constraints.
02
Engineer the System
Develop the panel configuration, material selection, mounting approach and integration plan.
03
Validate Performance
Test and document the solution to the applicable ballistic standard or customer protocol.
04
Manufacture & Integrate
Produce the armor components and guide the customer or integration partner through deployment.
