American Security Today’s Annual ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program is entering its Sixth Year in 2021 and continues to recognize the Outstanding Innovations of top firms and agencies in the Homeland Security and Public Safety fields.
2020 has been a very challenging year for everyone due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the much heralded AST ‘ASTORS’ Awards Winners Presentations and exclusive Luncheon at the Jacob Javits Center in NYC was canceled due to the coronavirus, however AST greatly anticipates the return of the 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Presentation Luncheon on Wednesday, November 17, 2021 in New York City.
However, the 2020 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program was again a huge success and many new categories were added including sections for COVID-19 Detection and Innovation, COVID-19 Communication Solutions, and COVID-19 Emergency Response Solutions.
