Securitas, the intelligent security solutions partner with world-leading technology and expertise, has joined the European Commission’s AI Pact, to reinforce its commitment to the ethical and responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI).
AI Pact
The AI Pact is a voluntary framework to prepare for compliance with the European Union’s AI Act, which regulates the use of AI systems based on their potential risk.
The AI Act came into force in August 2024 and will be implemented in stages over the next three years.
Privacy, safety, and ethical conduct
“The AI Pact is an important step toward a safer future,” says Martin Althén, President, of Securitas Digital. “By combining cutting-edge AI solutions with our highly skilled security professionals, we can set a new benchmark in security and inspire progress across the industry."
"As we continue integrating AI, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of privacy, safety, and ethical conduct.”
Three core actions
Establishing these practices enables organisations to build a strong foundation for ethical AI integration
The EU AI Pact encourages participating organisations to voluntarily commit to three core actions: implementing an AI governance strategy to support AI adoption and prepare for compliance with the AI Act, mapping AI systems that may be classified as high-risk, and promoting AI literacy and awareness among staff to ensure ethical and responsible AI development.
Establishing these practices enables organisations to build a strong foundation for ethical AI integration in their operations.
Threat detection
Securitas is transforming security with the help of AI by enhancing threat detection, optimising resource allocation, and unlocking strategic insights. AI analyses data from surveillance and access control to identify anomalies and alert security teams, enabling proactive measures.
Moreover, AI turns untapped data into actionable insights, optimising energy use and space utilisation. This level of AI integration requires clients to trust Securitas’ commitment to transparency, security, and ethical implementation.
Responsible AI Framework highlights
“Securitas’ own Responsible AI Framework highlights the importance of ethical and transparent use of AI in all operations,” says Hillevi Agranius, Chief Information Officer at Securitas.
“By incorporating rigorous governance practices, it ensures that AI solutions not only comply with regulatory standards but also embody our core values of integrity, vigilance, and helpfulness." As an AI Pact signatory, Securitas will continue to lead the industry toward a future where technology and human expertise combine to create a safer world.
