We can’t predict what the conversation will be at these upcoming events. What we do know, however, is that one of the main aspects of the physical security industry that the events will need to address is how service providers can harness the following emerging trends.
Progress in artificial intelligence varies from one industry to another. There’s a strong link between the physical security and AI sectors. For example, security service providers can deploy video surveillance analytics tools that rely on machine learning and deep learning technology to make smarter network-integrated security systems. Integrating physical security hardware with AI and cloud technology is transforming and expanding the amount of control that customers have over their secure spaces.
Traditionally, companies used a physical computer on their premises to run their access control system. But an increasing number of companies are finding good reasons to move their access control systems to the cloud. A cloud-based access control system improves the efficiency of your security system, which ultimately adds to your competitive advantage and better service to customers.
Like other industries in today’s world, the security industry needs to identify ways of working sustainably. The conversations at physical security conferences 2019 should address the question of how to develop and use physical security solutions that are not only profitable but also comply with environmental stewardship and social responsibility.
A big part of the answer lies in smart sensors. For instance, an environmental sensor in a smart city can trigger a thermal or video camera to quickly identify dangerous spills or fires and prompt rapid response.
In today’s world, many online services come at the cost of your personal data. The implementation of GDPR sought to address this concern and increase trust between organizations and the people they serve. Trust is one of the most important intangible assets of any company, especially for physical security service providers.
Whether you’re talking about physical security or cybersecurity, you can never be 100% secure. Criminals are always trying to find and exploit vulnerabilities in security systems. This is why access control companies are continually looking for innovations in hardware that will streamline and automate tasks for the end-user as well as providing greater security. As a result, attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated, especially as the ever-growing Internet of Things continues to blur the line between physical security and cybersecurity.
