The famous and historic Tower of London is aided by Westminster International for its security needs.

The Tower of London sought Westminster to supply it with scanning equipment to assist their security personnel in their duties of securing the site.

Her Majesty’s Royal Palace and Fortress, more commonly known as the Tower of London, is an historic monument in central London on the north bank of the River Thames.

The Tower of London was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and the Tower as a whole is a complex of several buildings set within two parallel rings of defensive walls and a moat.

The Tower’s primary function was a fortress, a royal palace, and a prison (particularly for high status and royal prisoners).

This last use has led to the phrase “sent to the Tower”. It has also served as a place of execution and torture, an armoury, a treasury, a zoo, a mint, a public records office, an observatory, and since 1303, the home of the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom.
