Expert commentary
The autumn equinox, which marks the start of autumn, occurs this weekend on Saturday, September 23. With darker evenings ahead, the experts at ADT have shared five ways to maximise your home's security. Author's quote Michele Bennett, General Manager at ADT UK&I comments: “Opportunistic thieves use darkness to their advantage, so it’s no surprise that the number of burglaries committed increases when the darker nights draw in." He adds, "Our 2022 burglary report found that burglaries are most common at night, with 58% of burglaries occurring between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Taking steps to optimise your home’s security before the clocks go back this year will provide reassurance that your property is as secure as possible.” Five ways to secure your property: Get a monitored alarm installed: A visible alarm system is a strong deterrent to potential burglars, as criminals are less likely to target a home that is protected. In the event of a break-in, a monitored alarm will alert you, your keyholders and depending on the package you take out, the police, ensuring a swift response to an alarm activation. Light up the dark: Well-lit exteriors make your home less appealing to potential intruders. Install motion-activated lights around any entry points, particularly porches and gardens, which alert you to movement on your property. This will also prevent burglars from operating under the cloak of darkness and increase the chance of a passerby spotting suspicious activity. Trim your garden landscape: Thieves look for escape routes and hiding spots when deciding which homes to break into, making gardens with high, overgrown hedges more likely to be targeted. This is especially true in the darker evenings, so be sure to give your garden a thorough tidy-up to make your property less likely to be targeted. It’s also advisable to ensure any tools are locked away in sheds and garages that could assist a burglar such as ladders, or a garden spade to force entry. Be smart with your lights: Using smart plugs allows you to turn on a few well-appointed lights and radios or televisions from any location from your phone. Used in conjunction with an outdoor camera or video doorbell, you can have lamps plugged into smart plugs come on when motion is detected. Programming lights to come on at different times throughout the night will help to deter burglars by making your property look occupied. Purchase a smart doorbell or outdoor camera: Smart doorbells are an effective way to deter burglars as they provide evidence in the event of a break-in, package theft, or other suspicious activity around your home. They also notify you when someone is at your door reducing the chance of you being caught out by a late evening or early morning robbery. Further encroachment Smart doorbells also act as a deterrent to unscrupulous door-to-door sellers and con artists, as video footage is recorded. In the event of a late-night door knock, you can see and speak to whoever is at your front door, without having to open the door. ADT’s new outdoor camera also has two-way audio and a high-pitch deterrent siren so you can warn off anyone from your property to deter any further encroachment.
Open platform video technology software is more than just a product; it's a tool that helps customers achieve their desired business outcomes. Safety, round-the-clock security, and increased operational efficiencies are now the norm due to video technology. Responsible Technology Despite humanity’s impressive technological advances, we also recognise the immense responsibility that comes with technological innovation. It's not enough to focus solely on the positive impact video technology can make, we must also be vigilant in identifying and addressing any potential negative consequences it can have on society and its citizens. This is the role of Responsible Technology. Data privacy We want to use all the good things that technology innovation brings, whether it be video, AI, ML, facial recognition, etc. We want to use all the good things that technology innovation brings, whether it be video, Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, facial recognition, etc. to serve people in societies in a responsible way. That means making sure that we regulate technology in a way that respects human rights and data privacy. Addressing the challenges The challenge is, that rather often technology leaders and policymakers either have conflicting interests or collaborate too late. To be responsible, business leaders must support their societies and policymakers in making regulations in the interest of the common good. At Milestone Systems, we are actively looking at how we develop our software responsibly, how our partners responsibly sell our software, and very importantly, how our customers use our software with a responsible mindset. Ensuring good corporate governance As a long-time partner within the security industry, we’re celebrating our 25th Anniversary this year, we are supporting the regulation of video technology for the good of society. However, it of course needs to strike the fine line between the right legislation and not hindering innovation. UNGP The UNGP is the most authoritative and widely adopted set of principles for responsible business At Milestone Systems, we want to play an active role in this and that is why we have pledged our support to the UN's Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP). The UNGP is the most authoritative and widely adopted set of principles for responsible business. The principles call on governments and companies to identify, prevent, mitigate, and remedy actual and potential human rights abuses. Since its launch in 2011, the UNGPs have received wide support from states, civil society organisations, and the private sector, making them the key global foundation for business and human rights. Protect, respect, and remedy Through this commitment, we are taking steps to ensure good corporate governance and ethical standards in the development of our technology. We're generating mechanisms to prevent misuse and we are building educational practices internally. Based on the UNGP’s three pillars: protect, respect, and remedy, we are developing a set of Responsible Technology Principles and procedures for the development, selling, and use of our products. Need for video technology regulation In addition, we are currently evaluating all the various technology areas in which our video software can be used, such as with third-party integrations that utilise e.g., facial recognition. We are mapping out the advantages and disadvantages for societies. One key area of concern is how local authorities are mapping and storing data about us as individuals. This is the reason why we're inviting more legislation to regulate video technology rather than less. Engaging With policymakers We are meeting ministers and trade organisations as we believe this needs to be a joint effort where all parties are heard We are proactively reaching out to and connecting with policymakers and other relevant stakeholders to discuss our approach to and take on Responsible Technology and encouraging the political landscape to work with us around regulation and legislation. We are meeting ministers and trade organisations as we believe this needs to be a joint effort where all parties are heard and where we can openly weigh the advantages and the challenges of technology, whether it is video, facial recognition, machine learning, Artificial Intelligence, or other technologies. Striking a balance Implementing Responsible Technology is a journey, not a destination. To give it the focus needed, we have created a dedicated team to implement this initiative at Milestone Systems. At the same time, we are reaching out to the political landscape to discuss how we balance regulation without hindering innovation. Video technology used ethically We are a global company with worldwide operations, and we are having dialogues about how video technology is being used and how we can have meaningful talks about what regulation and legislation should look like. However, we don’t necessarily want to limit access to the technology itself. Facial recognition We encourage the policymakers to engage with us in the industry so that together we can strike the fine line Facial recognition is a great example of this. The EU is considering making live facial recognition illegal. That would be a huge inhibitor of proactive terrorism prevention. For example, if a well-known terrorist is walking down the street and is being mapped out against Interpol’s most wanted list, the authorities should be able to react. However, if a person walking down the street but is not mapped out or does not have any priors then the city should not be allowed to store the data of that individual’s whereabouts at that point in time. This potential legislation is concerning to me as a citizen of Europe. Instead, we encourage the policymakers to engage with us in the industry so that together we can strike the fine line for the better good of all of us. Maintaining high ethical standards We have a firm understanding and expectation that ethical standards are a huge driver in the security business. Citizens are not in favour of technology companies abusing data about them and monetising from things that they have not opted in to do. Soon, I think we will see many more companies and governments leaning toward suppliers that do have a responsible mindset and high ethical standards for partnerships. Ethical practices Our journey toward Responsible Technology is an ongoing process, and we must remain steadfast in our commitment to ethical practices and the protection of human rights. We recognise that the rapidly changing technological landscape continually presents new challenges and opportunities. For this reason, we continuously look into how we can improve, for example, our end user licence agreements to avoid potential human rights abuses. An industry responsibility Security companies must prioritise careful planning and preparation, including developing policies and procedures For Responsible Technology to truly become a reality, compliance with international human rights laws and data privacy regulations is critical. Security companies must prioritise careful planning and preparation, including developing policies and procedures that govern the ethical use of video surveillance systems. The secure and ethical community In today's technology environment where deep integrations, machine learning, and artificial intelligence are becoming the norm, Responsible Technology is more relevant than ever. The security industry has a unique opportunity to set an example for other sectors by promoting a secure and ethical development community that prioritises Responsible Technology, trustworthy data collection, and the protection of human rights. We must all rise to this challenge and embrace our role as ethical leaders for the greater good of both people and societies.
Inadequate security measures on your essential infrastructure can have severe consequences. Consequences Consider the rail industry: If a vandal cuts the cables on a vital mechanism that controls train signals, train safety is jeopardised. To avoid train collisions or derailments and thus significant damage to property and potential loss of life, the operating company must shut down the service until the infrastructure is repaired and the network is up and running again. The disruption affects the rail ecosystem itself, but also the people using the trains, the transportation of cargo, and more. The financial cost of repairing the damage, restoring signal functionality, and compensating for delays can be substantial. For another example, consider electrical substations: A fire or targeted attack can damage the system and lead to devastating power outages. Traditional surveillance limitations Traditional video surveillance has its limits when it comes to protecting transformer stations Traditional video surveillance has its limits when it comes to protecting transformer stations. The facilities are often located in rural areas, where straying animals or flying leaves trigger false alarms. 3D Surveillance solutions overcome these challenges by volumetrically securing the area and immediately detecting intruders only raising the alarm in the event of a human intruder and even identifying drone attacks. Protecting critical infrastructure with 3D surveillance Critical infrastructure must be monitored. It remains at risk if operators do not have systems for monitoring entire areas rather than just the periphery if security personnel has limited information in case of an intrusion and if security response protocols are not automated. 3D Surveillance solutions 3D Surveillance is an important tool for protecting critical infrastructure and ensuring the safety of those who rely on it. Integrating LiDAR technology, 3D Surveillance solutions provide a comprehensive view of the area being monitored with real-time monitoring and response, protecting critical infrastructure from damage and providing a more comprehensive security system. Advanced analytics and artificial intelligence Security personnel can identify and verify threats more easily and track the movements of individuals or vehicles, as well as respond to incidents as they happen. 3D Surveillance systems can be equipped with advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to detect patterns and anomalies that may indicate a potential threat. This can help to prevent potential attacks or accidents before they occur, as well as enable more accurate responses to incidents. Talent challenge Turning to autonomy by implementing sensor- and software-based solutions requires fewer if any, in-person patrols 3D Surveillance can also help tackle the talent challenge in the industry: Recruiting security professionals involves extensive background checks, and jobs in the industry are notorious for their low salaries, which results in high staff turnover. Turning to autonomy by implementing sensor- and software-based solutions requires fewer if any, in-person patrols and ensure reliable infrastructure protection. Additional security measures In many countries, more stringent legislation now mandates the implementation of additional security measures to safeguard critical infrastructure, particularly at a country's points of entry, such as airports and harbours. Protecting the perimeter is no longer enough. For instance, airport management must ensure that critical areas, including the space around aircraft and near unauthorised access points, are secure. While multi-layered screening of individuals at the perimeter is a valuable security measure, it must be complemented by smooth and efficient surveillance of the entire area, which can only be achieved through advanced technology. Different adoption rates 3D Surveillance technology is only beginning to gain traction in most locations, and adoption rates differ significantly from one region to another. For instance, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe have embraced 3D Surveillance to a greater extent than Western Europe. Regions with lower adoption rates will likely catch up as they seek to reinforce the security of their critical infrastructure, especially given the conflict in Eastern Europe. Vandalism and damage protection 3D Surveillance enhances the security of critical infrastructure, reduces the risk of downtime and loss of revenue 3D Surveillance offers reliable protection against vandalism and damage - major concerns for companies that rely on critical infrastructure. LiDAR-based, software-enhanced 3D Surveillance solutions provide real-time insights and enable automatic processing of the information so that operators can autonomously and quickly detect and respond to potential threats. These solutions are scalable and customisable, allowing companies to adapt their security measures to their unique needs and changing environments. 3D Surveillance enhances the security of critical infrastructure, reduces the risk of downtime and loss of revenue, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements. Asset management and maintenance planning Beyond its security benefits, 3D Surveillance can help with tasks such as asset management and maintenance planning. It can help identify potential problems or maintenance needs before they become more serious issues by providing a real-time view of the monitored infrastructure. This can help to reduce downtime and keep critical infrastructure running smoothly. Real-time management The same technology can also perform volume monitoring tasks and thus facilitate the management of valuable resources such as bulk material, grain, wood chips, or chemicals. By scanning the stock 24/7 and automatically calculating stock volume updating records in real-time, this technology supports lean production systems and automated processing.
Security beat
Companies at GSX 2023 emphasised new ways that technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the cloud can address long-standing issues in the security market. Among the exhibitors at the event in Dallas were companies seeking creative ways to apply technology, lower costs, and make the world a safer place. Reflecting on the exhibition, here are some additional takeaways. Expanding AI at the edge i-PRO is a company reflecting the continued expansion of edge AI capability in the security market. Today, more than half of the company’s lineup supports AI at the edge so the customer has a wide choice of form factors when seeking to leverage the feature set. AI processing relay, extended warranty i-PRO is increasing their warranty period from 5 to 7 years, which could be a lifetime warranty in some cases I-PRO also has an “AI processing relay” device that accepts non-AI video streams and applies edge analytics. AI has progressed from a high-end technology to a feature available in a variety of cameras at different price points. i-PRO is also increasing its warranty period from 5 to 7 years, which could be a lifetime warranty in some cases depending on a customer’s refresh schedule and lifecycle management. Active Guard, MonitorCast The company’s video management system (Video Insight) is continuing to build new features including “Active Guard,” an integrated metadata sorter. Their access control platform, MonitorCast, is a Mercury-based solution that is tightly integrated with Video Insight. Their embedded recorders now have PoE built in. “We can move at a faster pace to fill out our product line since leaving Panasonic,” says Adam Lowenstein, Director of Product Management. “We can focus our business on adapting to the market.” Emphasis on retail and other verticals Shoplifting is a timely issue, and retail is a vertical market that got a lot of attention at GSX 2023. “We see a lot of retailers who are primarily interested in protecting employee safety, but also assets,” says Brandon Davito, Verkada’s SVP of Product and Operations. “Shrinkage is a CEO-level priority.” “Retailers are getting more engaged with security posture, instead of letting perpetrators walk,” Davito adds. Intrusion detection Verkada has an intrusion product that will notify a central station if there is an alarm On the alarm side, Verkada has an intrusion product that will notify a central station if there is an alarm, and operators can review videos to confirm the alarm. Other capabilities seeking to discourage trespassers include sirens, strobes, and “talkdown” capabilities. International expansion Verkada continues to expand internationally with 16 offices in all, including Sydney, Tokyo, and London. The core value proposition is to enable customers to manage their onsite infrastructure more simply, including new elements such as PTZ cameras, intercoms, and visitor management. Verkada emphasises ease of use, including a mobile application to allow access to be managed across the user base. Forging partnerships “We are committed to the channel and industry, and we continue to build relationships and expand our reach,” says Davito. Among the industry relationships is a new partnership with Convergint, which was hinted at during the show and announced later the same day. They are also expanding their partnerships with Schlage, Allegion, and ASSA ABLOY. Working with other verticals They offer new features for K -12 schools, and a new alarm platform is easier to deploy and manage Verkada has also found success across multiple other verticals, notably healthcare, where they integrate with an electronic medical records system. They offer new features for K-12 schools, and a new alarm platform is easier to deploy and manage. They are integrating wireless locks to secure interior doors in schools, looking to secure the perimeter, and installing guest management systems. Transitioning the mid-market to the cloud Salient is squarely focused on the “mid-market,” a large swath of systems somewhere between small businesses and enterprise-level systems. Pure cloud systems are not as attractive to this market, which has a built-out infrastructure of on-premise systems. Adding a camera to an existing system is easier and less expensive than tying it to the cloud. Benefits of cloud It’s a market that may not be ready for the pure cloud, but there are benefits to be realised from adding a cloud element to existing systems. “We are continuing to augment our premise-based solutions with added cloud capabilities and flexibility,” says Sanjay Challa, Salient’s Chief Product Officer. The feedback Salient hears from their customers is “I want to own my data.” The hybrid cloud approach offers the right mix of control, flexibility, and unit economics. Cloud add-on capabilities We want to provide the flexibility for customers to go full-cloud as it becomes more economically attractive" Cloud add-on capabilities include bringing more intelligence about system operation to the user via the cloud. Over time, Salient expects to sell more cloud-centric offerings based on feedback from integrators and customers. “We want to provide the flexibility for customers to go full-cloud as it becomes more economically attractive over time,” says Challa. Vaidio AI technology Salient seeks to be a transition pioneer to help customers realise the path to the cloud. Their approach is “crawl, walk, run,” and helping customers make the transition at each stage. Salient has added AI to its product offering, incorporating Vaidio AI technology from IronYun into a powerful suite and broad array of on-premise analytics, which are gaining traction. The seamless approach makes it easy for customers to embrace AI analytics, although Salient remains broadly committed to open systems. Addressing ‘soft’ features for integrators AMAG is in the process of enhancing its product line with the next generation of access control panels. However, “product” is just part of the new developments at AMAG. In addition to “hard” features (such as products), the company is looking to improve its “soft” features, too; that is, how they work with the integrator channel. Integrator channel Rebuilding a process to make your organisation more efficient, is relatively easy; it just takes a lot of persistence" “We have the depth of our legacy customer base we can learn from, we just need to close the feedback loop quicker,” says Kyle Gordon, AMAG’s Executive Vice President of Global Sales, Marketing, and commercial Excellence, who acknowledges the value of reinstating face-to-face meetings after COVID. “We are laser-focused on nurturing our integrator channel,” he says. “Developing new features takes time, but rebuilding a process to make your organisation more efficient, that’s relatively easy; it just takes a lot of persistence,” says Gordon. More cohesive internal communication is another useful tool, he says. Disrupting the cloud based on price Wasabi is working to make cloud applications less expensive by offering a “disruptive” price on cloud storage, $6.99 per terabyte per month (80% less than hyperscalers). Contending “hyperscalers” like AWS are charging too much for cloud storage, Wasabi is using its own intellectual property and server equipment co-located in data centres around the world. Wasabi sells “hot cloud storage,” which refers to the fact that they only have one tier of storage and data is always accessible. In contrast, a company such as AWS might charge an “egress fee” for access to data stored in a “colder” tier. Cloud storage “We saw that several video surveillance companies had not yet adopted cloud storage, and we saw an opportunity to make it easy to use,” said Drew Schlussel, Wasabi’s Senior Director of Product Marketing. “We just install a little bit of software that allows them to store data in the cloud and bring it back from the cloud.” Performance, protection (cybersecurity), and price Wasabi works with integrators, resellers, and distributors and also integrates with VMS companies Wasabi works with integrators, resellers, and distributors and also integrates with VMS companies such as Genetec and Milestone. Emphasising performance, protection (cybersecurity), and price, their data centres are certified to SOC 2 and ISO 27001 standards. Faster throughput for weapons detection Xtract One is a young company focusing on weapons detection in a time of accelerated concern about gun issues post-COVID. Founded in Canada and based on technology developed at McMaster University, Xtract One has found a niche in providing weapons detection at stadiums and arenas. These customers already have budgets, and it is easy to shift the money to a newer, faster technology. Madison Square Garden in New York City is among its customers. Cost savings solution Xtract One can increase throughput to 30 to 50 people per entrance per minute (compared to 5 to 6 people per minute when using metal detectors). The solution doesn’t require anyone to empty their pockets and the system alarms on items beyond guns and knives. Using Xtract One allows customers to reduce the number of screening lanes and security staff, providing additional cost savings, all while getting fans through the screening process in half the time. Purpose-built sensors The system uses purpose-built sensors looking for specific characteristics, such as reflective and density properties In addition to stadiums and arenas, Xtract One, formerly Patriot One, is also getting “inbound” interest from schools, hospitals, manufacturers, and other verticals that makeup 50% of their business. “We’re on a rocket ride, mainly because the weapons issues are not going away,” says Peter Evans, CEO and Director at Xtract One. The system uses purpose-built sensors looking for specific characteristics, such as reflective and density properties, all correlated by an AI engine. Providing early warning of violence ZeroEyes is another company focused on weapons detection. Their AI gun detection system works with video images to identify if someone is “brandishing” (carrying) a weapon. In other words, the system does not detect concealed weapons. Identifying someone carrying a weapon provides early warning of a possible violent act. Increased response with AI-enables images Images are identified by AI and sent to a monitoring centre where a human confirms the image before contacting first responders. Knowing the location of a shooter enables staff to lock entry points, move people to safety, and direct first responders. The company was founded to leverage existing camera views to stop mass shootings and gun violence by reducing response times.
New buzzwords were abundant in the articles that generated the most clicks on our website in 2022. From the metaverse to the Internet of Things, from frictionless access control to artificial intelligence (AI), the topics most popular among our site’s visitors were at the cutting edge of change and innovation in the physical security marketplace. Here is a review of the Top 10 Articles of 2022, based on reader clicks, including links to the original content: Metaverse will promote collaboration and enable more efficiencies for security Metaverse is a familiar buzzword currently, but few people grasp what it means. In the simplest terms, the metaverse is an online “place” where physical, virtual, and augmented realities are shared. The term, Metaverse, suggests a more immersive online environment that combines elements of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). For the physical security industry, the looming creation of a complex online environment offers possibilities and challenges. Establishing identity will be a central principle of the metaverse, and various biometrics are at the core of ensuring the identity of someone interacting in the virtual world. Cybersecurity elements are also key. On the benefits side, the security market is already taking advantage of technologies related to the eventual evolution of the metaverse. For example, the industry has deployed AR to provide information about a door lock’s status on a screen, headset, or smart glasses as a patrolling guard walks by. What are the security challenges of the transportation industry? Because transit agencies rely on several IoT devices, they get exposed to higher cybersecurity risks Rapid technological advancement, increasing urbanisation, and the growing expectations of commuters and governments are pressuring transit industry players to modernise. Commuters, urban planners, first responders, and other stakeholders want to use transit data to support their decision-making. Transit agencies’ security and operations teams need closer collaboration to stay ahead. However, for many years, most transit agencies have relied on siloed, proprietary systems. Because transit agencies rely on an ever-growing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, they also get exposed to higher cybersecurity risks as there are more network access points to manage. The future is here: ADT’s innovation lab evaluating robots and indoor drones New robots and indoor drones for security applications are on the horizon, based on the work of ADT Commercials’ Innovation Lab, which is evaluating the latest technologies’ value to customers and some typical use cases. The ideal use of humanoid robots is to perform jobs that are considered repetitive, dirty, dangerous, and/or mundane. In security, that describes most security guard positions. As the name implies, autonomous indoor drones are focused on flying indoors versus the outdoor environment, which is heavily regulated by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Flying autonomously indoors not only eliminates FAA oversight but also will enable ADT Commercial to offer another choice to customers to further reduce their dependencies on and costs of human guards. Innovative security: the key to business efficiency, cost savings, and more Organisations have shifted business focus countless times since the onset of the pandemic. While many leaders have been primarily concerned with the immediate health and safety of their customers and employees, 2022 has given rise to a new trend. More than ever, business leaders are seeking security solutions that increase operational efficiency and cost savings as well as improve logistics and business insight. As working environments become more complex, organisations looking to drive higher productivity and profitability margins should consider security upgrades that prioritise integrated analytics and automation. Shoplifting today is more sophisticated, and so are the tools to fight it One tool to fight shoplifting is analytics, which can be used to determine where shrink is occurring Shoplifting is often viewed as petty theft by individuals, but that is not always the case. Overall, shoplifting is becoming more sophisticated and coordinated. Traditional “shoplifting” has two major differences when compared to organised retail crime (ORC). The differences are numbers and motivation. ORC consists of groups working together to monetise theft, very different than an individual taking an item they need. One tool to fight to shoplift is analytics, which can be used to determine where shrink is occurring. Understanding where crimes take place helps retailers make strategic decisions about where to place their loss prevention efforts. Oosto offers 10 reasons to switch to frictionless access control in commercial buildings Access control for buildings is nothing new. It’s only in recent years that the urgency to implement smarter, more efficient, and more convenient forms of access control has increased, in the context of public and private sector digital transformation. Upheavals from the COVID-19 pandemic have forced organisations to re-think, pivot, and invest in new technology solutions that will incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, to gain speed in their operations, glean actionable insights from their video analytics, and enhance productivity with their teams. Which security trend is here to stay? Technologies and trends in the security marketplace come and go with some regularity. But how can you tell which trends are gaining traction and which amount to “the flavor of the month.” For example, while many physical security departments were hesitant to consider cloud-connected solutions in the past, they now better understand the benefits these solutions bring and how they can help them utilize their resources to achieve business goals while minimising overall operational complexity. Other technologies mentioned in the article include mobile credentials, AI-based analytics, video management systems, cybersecurity, and a new emphasis on data. What do these technology trends have in common? They are opening new possibilities for greater system efficiency and functionality. In short, they are playing a role in transforming our industry. GSX 2022 reflects changing technologies and evolving role of security The role of the security director increasingly will encompass facets of cybersecurity and physical security GSX 2022 in Atlanta highlighted the changing role of security in the enterprise. The role of the security director increasingly will encompass facets of cybersecurity as well as physical security. Transitioning to an operation that incorporates both disciplines requires a workforce that embraces education and building new skills. Education and the opportunity to build new skills are evident everywhere at GSX, including in the hundreds of education sessions and also in the knowledge shared on the show floor in the exhibit hall. Consolidation changing the face of the security market Consolidation is a dominant trend in the security marketplace. Large companies typically swallow up smaller companies as a means of expanding both their technology portfolios and their geographic reach. Sometimes a big fish is swallowed up by an even bigger fish. Despite the pandemic and resulting economic challenges, the security market has continued to be a desirable environment for both big players and startups, which then provide abundant acquisition targets for larger companies. This article highlighted recent mergers and acquisition news. Six trends at the intersection of video and AI Video has evolved beyond the capabilities of advanced imaging and performance to include another level: Artificial Intelligence. Video imaging technology combines with AI, delivers a wealth of new data, not just for traditional physical security applications, but for a much deeper analysis of past, present, and even future events across the enterprise. This is more than a big development for the physical security industry; it is a monumental paradigm shift that is changing how security system models are envisioned, designed, and deployed. Much of the heightened demand for advanced video analytics is being driven by six prevalent industry trends.
For an enterprise, addressing cyber security requires that stakeholders have immediate access to critical information compiled from multiple sources and presented where and how they need it. Various data sources monitor the cyber security status of a company’s computer systems to provide real-time visibility. Aggregating that data into visual dashboards and presenting it to operators enables any cyber security problems to be flagged quickly and resolved. Software system enhances cyber security Userful Corporation provides a software system that enhances cyber security operations for an enterprise Userful Corporation provides a software system that enhances cyber security operations for an enterprise, enabling stakeholders to envision various cyber security factors, such as application security, network security, cloud security and IoT (Internet of Things) security. The software system empowers operators to respond more efficiently. Working in conjunction with a company’s existing IT infrastructure, Userful software combines datasets from diverse systems into a visual format and delivers the information to a desktop computer, a video wall, or even to a home office. Real-time visibility “It provides a new dynamic to how cyber security issues are resolved,” said Shane Vega, Userful Corporation’s Vice President (VP) of Product Marketing, adding “The individuals who have flagged a cyber security issue may not be the ones to respond. Having real-time visibility provides more value to the overall response.” A typical cyber security operations centre resembles a physical security command or emergency management hub – large video walls, individual desktop workstations, and operators that need to share information and respond quickly to any incident. Userful’s software helps in managing operations centres Userful’s software manages how data is presented in an operations centre environment, without relying on proprietary hardware, operating outside an end-user customer’s IT infrastructure. Managing operations centres is a core offering for Userful Corporation, including command centres of all types, from traditional network operation centres to emergency network systems to security systems. The ability to use one software system throughout an enterprise is appealing to companies that have historically grappled with proprietary and siloed systems. Solutions that are easy to deploy, manage and scale Cyber security professionals need solutions that are easy to deploy, manage and scale" “We are a platform that can be utilised across the enterprise,” said Shane Vega, adding “Cyber security professionals need solutions that are easy to deploy, manage and scale, so they can manage all the threats every day.” Compiling and displaying information to an operations centre has historically involved silos of proprietary audio/video (AV) hardware. Ironically, the hardware approach presents cyber security risks that undermine the very mission of protecting a company’s data and networks. The proprietary systems operate outside the company’s network infrastructure, and IT professionals do not have visibility into the systems. Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) Instead of hardware, displaying information on Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) can be accomplished using software running on off-the-shelf components, managed by the IT department and featuring all the cyber security protections required, throughout the enterprise’s network infrastructure. SOAR includes threat and vulnerability management, security incident response and security operations automation, enabling companies to collect threat-related data from several sources and automate the responses. Cyber security threats Possible threats might include an influx of packet generation, malware, someone seeking access to the network, or a malicious email. Various tools manage each threat, and each must be visualised. Because the threats are related, a comprehensive dashboard enables operators to create parallels and respond more efficiently. The software-as-a-service system ensures that all software is updated and can operate on the latest hardware In the Userful AV-over-IP scenario, an IT department takes full ownership of the computers and subsystems installed on the network. The software-as-a-service system ensures that all software is updated and can operate on the latest hardware. Companies always have an ecosystem of interconnectivity. Single platform/solution The single platform/solution also extends beyond operations centres to include meeting rooms and digital signage. All images are captured using existing protocols, such as Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP), HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC), and so forth. In contrast, the AV industry is hardware-centric and has been known to circumvent software approaches in order to justify selling more hardware. AV systems typically operate in terms of pixels rather than bytes of information and use proprietary software. Companies always have an ecosystem of interconnectivity Different departments in a company have historically installed their own specific AV systems, based on proprietary hardware, so that each department is siloed from the rest of the organisation. Dangers of random hardware on a network Random hardware on a network, beyond the reach of the IT department, can provide access points to the network for hackers and other cyber security threats. Each proprietary hardware system exists outside the existing security protocols of the enterprise and each represents a cyber security vulnerability. Some companies end up with five or six different operations centres that involve three or four manufacturers, all siloed. Software versus hardware Our biggest challenge is to get people to understand what is possible with software versus hardware" “Our biggest challenge is to get people to understand what is possible with software versus hardware,” said Shane Vega, adding “The industry is inundated with hardware, and the risk is the unknown. Customers may not be familiar with a software solution that can accomplish what they have historically depended on hardware for.” Userful Corporation works through channel partners (integrators), who assemble complete systems using Userful software and other components, such as video screens, large-format commercial displays, groups of tiled displays, projectors – any type of display with an input. Corporate policy specifies security at every level Userful’s corporate policy specifies security at every level, including user authentication, encryption, endpoint security, air-gapped servers, information security policies, General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and a solution built on industry-leading IT standards. To spread the word about Userful Corporation’s capabilities related to cyber security, the company will be participating in Infosecurity Europe 2022, taking place from June 21 to June 23, 2022 at ExCeL, London, United Kingdom (UK).

KA Beveren is a sports school located in Belgium, known for providing sports education and nurturing many student-athletes. Recently KA Beveren underwent a significant upgrade to its security infrastructure, aiming to improve the safety of students, staff, and facilities. VIVOTEK, the pioneering security solution provider, played a pivotal role in the project. In collaboration with distributor Optima Networks and integrator Educorner bvba, VIVOTEK’s advanced AI solutions, helped KA Beveren achieve a state-of-the-art security system, offering superior monitoring and AI-driven analytics. Challenge KA Beveren faced the challenge of achieving total range across indoor and outdoor spaces KA Beveren faced the challenge of achieving comprehensive coverage across both indoor and outdoor spaces, eliminating blind spots and ensuring continuous security. The security solution was designed to deter vandalism and unauthorised access, creating a safer environment for both students and staff. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in monitoring and reducing incidents of bullying and physical altercations, aiding in the identification of individuals involved in such events. The solution was required to detect security threats in real time, providing actionable insights to administrators and security personnel. Due to the school's large size and dynamic environment, the solution had to offer both wide-ranging and detailed security coverage. Provide comprehensive coverage with minimal blind spots. Enable efficient monitoring and management using AI-driven technology. Be scalable to accommodate future growth and evolving security needs.

Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de La Laguna Airport has significantly improved its safety by installing state-of-the-art video technology from German manufacturer Dallmeier. The Panomera® multifocal sensor cameras are used for comprehensive monitoring of the movement area. A major hub for domestic flights Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de La Laguna Airport (TFN) is located about 10 kilometres west of the capital, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the municipality of San Cristóbal de La Laguna. It mainly handles domestic flights: connecting flights to the other Canary Islands, such as Gran Canaria or Lanzarote, as well as scheduled flights to the Spanish mainland. The main destination is Madrid-Barajas, with over one million passengers, followed by Barcelona, Seville, and Bilbao. Tender for detection, supervision, and recording The tender documents specified the installation of a monitoring and control system to detect To further increase safety at Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de La Laguna Airport and to improve airport operations, the entire movement area was to be covered. The tender documents specified the installation of a monitoring and control system to detect, supervise, and record operations in that area in high resolution. Installation sites as critical points The total area to be monitored is huge, with the runway (with the focus at both ends), apron, taxiways, and service roads adjacent to the apron. The main challenge was that it was not possible to place camera masts randomly on the movement area, so existing buildings had to be used as installation points. Simplified maintenance “We wanted to minimise the number of installation points and camera systems to avoid the need for additional infrastructure such as masts, cabling, communication interfaces, etc., and to simplify subsequent maintenance processes,” says Carlos Jesús Delgado Gómez, Head of the Director’s Office at TFN. “And, of course, airports have strict regulations for any type of installation, especially in the movement area. That’s why there were very limited options when it came to selecting installation points. Nevertheless, the desired area had to be monitored at the highest resolution and the recording always had to be at maximum resolution.” High-resolution coverage High-resolution coverage of large areas under these conditions could not be satisfactorily achieved High-resolution coverage of large areas under these conditions – a minimum number of installation points and camera systems – could not be satisfactorily achieved with conventional single-sensor cameras. Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de La Laguna Airport therefore decided to use Dallmeier’s patented Panomera® multifocal sensor technology. Maximum resolution at long distances By combining multiple lenses and sensors with different focal lengths in a single optical unit, multifocal sensor technology offers high resolution across the entire object space. This means that even distant objects can be captured clearly, and significantly fewer systems are required overall than with conventional single-sensor cameras. “We were able to install the Panomera® on existing building facades and roofs without any problems”, says Carlos Jesús Delgado Gómez. “No other camera system was able to cover such a large area with so few cameras and installation points at such a high resolution.” Increasing operational safety and optimising processes The installed video technology not only increases operational safety but also allows processes to be optimised and disputes to be resolved quickly and clearly. One of the areas monitored is the aprons, where aircraft park and are prepared for the next flight. Since every minute spent parking is money for the airport company, there are always disputes about who is responsible for delays and the resulting additional parking fees. Was the fuel truck there on time? Did the catering arrive on time? Damage management can now be carried out quickly and objectively thanks to clear video recordings. For example, did the damage occur while the aircraft was parked or docked, or was it already there? The advantage of multi-user capability Any number of operators can access the image at the same time, each zooming in on the area of interest In addition to its ability to cover large areas, multifocal sensor technology is characterised by its multi-user capability. Panomera® works like a virtual combination of any number of PTZ cameras with the key advantage that the operator moves virtually in the image, rather than moving the camera mechanically as with PTZ cameras. As a result, any number of operators can access the image at the same time, each zooming in on the area of interest. Unlike conventional PTZ cameras, the entire image is always recorded. Bandwidth savings thanks to multicast capability As several users always need to access the live stream at the same time, the so-called multicast capability was also a decisive advantage of the Panomera®. Multicast capability allows data from a single source to be sent to multiple recipients simultaneously. This means that the video stream can be efficiently distributed to multiple devices or users without having to send the data multiple times. Multicast reduces network load and makes more efficient use of bandwidth. 3D simulation of the project, “CamCards” The entire project was precisely planned by Dallmeier with the help of a 3D simulation and pre-configured and tested in the company‘s own FAT Centre according to the customer‘s specifications. So-called CamCards, created by the Dallmeier 3D team, made the installation easier for the installer on site, as they show exactly where and at what angle the individual Panomera® cameras are to be mounted. Mountera® mounting system The Mountera® mounting system also proved its worth in practice, as Miguel Ángel Rodríguez Domínguez The Mountera® mounting system also proved its worth in practice, as Miguel Ángel Rodríguez Domínguez, project manager at installer Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios, Delegación Canarias, confirms, “The biggest challenge for us as installers was the high humidity and salt content due to the island location." "We therefore had to have bespoke, rust-proof, and robust masts and brackets made for the cameras. The actual installation of the Panomera® cameras with the Mountera® wall bracket and mast adapter was very easy.” Satisfied with the solution The video system has lived up to expectations and Tenerife North Airport is happy with its choice. Both the installer and the end customer are also satisfied with the support provided during the project. “We are very grateful for the support and solution-oriented assistance from Dallmeier Spain throughout the entire process, but especially during the implementation,” says Carlos Jesús Delgado Gómez. With the Dallmeier solution, consisting of a camera, recorder, and video management system, Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de La Laguna Airport is also well equipped for the future: The system is modular and can therefore be easily expanded or adapted to new challenges at any time.
DP World Yarimca, one of the largest container terminals of the Gulf of İzmit and Turkey, is a strong proponent of using industry-pioneering technology to deliver unrivaled value to its customers and partners. As the port is growing, DP World Yarimca needs to continue to provide uninterrupted operations and a high level of security. To address these challenges, DP World Yarimca has embraced innovative technological products, including FLIR's comprehensive portfolio of security monitoring solutions. DP World Yarimca: An overview DP World Yarimca is located in the heart of Anatolia, Turkey. The port is the gateway to overseas markets to many Turkish firms and it supports economic activity in the East Marmara region and a large part of Anatolia. DP World Yarimca can berth four vessels or two ultra-large container ships at the same time, making it Turkey’s fastest and most efficient port. Maintaining safe and uninterrupted operations for its customers is one of the main tasks of the DP World Yarimca port operators, but it’s frequently complicated by illegal fishing, diving, and mussel poaching along the region. Challenges faced by DP World Yarimca Illegal fishing and mussel poaching Harvesting the mussels could also damage the port’s cathodic protection system Mussels are growing abundantly on the piles that support the port’s berths. This is a main attraction for mussel poachers. Not only is this activity illegal, but it also poses a serious safety risk for poachers as well as for people who are legally active in the port. Harvesting the mussels could also damage the port’s cathodic protection system, a system that prevents corrosion on submerged and underground metallic structures. “Mussel poachers prevent us from efficiently monitoring our port activity and they potentially interrupt our operations,” says Ismail Karaçam, HSSE Manager at DP World Yarimca. Delays in vessel maneouvering In addition, illegal hunters and divers can enter the vessel maneuvering areas and cause delays in the berthing and departure of vessels. This can cause disruptions in the supply chain. DP World Yarimca's commitment to security Since its formation, the port has always viewed security as its top priority. The organisation has always provided the necessary technology to monitor activities from the seaside and to guarantee security and sustained operations at the container site. When their current security monitoring system reached the end of life, DP World’s security team was looking for a new solution that could help them detect intruders both onshore and at sea. Finding the right port security monitoring solution The port security team scanned the market for new technology and learned about FLIR’s visible portfolio The port security team scanned the market for new technology and learned about FLIR’s visible and thermal security monitoring portfolio through Turkish distributor and integrator IRMARINETECH. “We had completed port security projects in Turkey before,” says Koray Serbest, founder of IRMARINETECH. “This already instilled confidence in the team of DP World that we could meet their needs. After convincing product demonstrations and proofs of concepts, DP World Yarimca decided to collaborate with us and FLIR.” Enhancing port security with FLIR’s thermal and visible cameras FLIR's thermal and visible camera systems have revolutionised DP World Yarimca's approach to port security. These advanced technologies empower the port's security team to monitor illegal activities during nighttime, inclement weather conditions, and from extended distances. Monitoring activities at sea and at night “The illegal fishermen and divers had proven to be very resourceful in their activities,” says Ismail Karaçam. “One of their tactics was to paint their boat black, so they were invisible at night for our current camera systems." "That’s when we knew we needed thermal camera technology. With the thermal cameras from FLIR, we can now monitor any illegal activity at night, in challenging weather conditions like rain or fog, and from a long distance.” Detection of intruders and man-overboard situations The port operators have a 24/7 view of intruders at sea, but they also use cameras to monitor To monitor the port’s 800-meter shoreline and activities up to 200 meters out to sea, the port invested in FLIR’s thermal cameras, including the FC-Series ID analytical camera, the Saros dome camera, and the M232 pan/tilt marine thermal camera. The port operators have a 24/7 view of intruders at sea, but they also use the cameras to monitor for man overboard situations and oil spills. The port’s security patrols also make use of a FLIR Scion thermal handheld camera to detect fishermen and divers hiding under the rocks, who enter under the berth in complete darkness. Perimeter security and container area monitoring A combination of thermal and visible cameras, like the FLIR Quasar panoramic and PTZ cameras, are used to monitor the site’s perimeter security as well as the activities inside the container area. FLIR’s wide portfolio and local support DP World Yarimca was well aware of FLIR’s strong reputation in the field of port security monitoring. Ultimately, it was the visual quality of the thermal camera systems and the ability to offer highly accurate imaging over a long distance that convinced the DP World Yarimca security management team. In addition, FLIR was able to present a suitable solution for every specific security need and application in the port by bringing in a combination of the company’s wide portfolio of enterprise, perimeter security, and maritime monitoring solutions. Support and service The support of IRMARINETECH was a confirmation that DP World Yarimca had made the right choice The support of a dedicated and local FLIR support partner like IRMARINETECH was a confirmation that DP World Yarimca had made the right choice. “We want to guarantee continued security to our customers, which means that we just cannot afford technical downtime,” says the Security Manager at DP World Yarimca. “So, in case we need technical maintenance, spare parts, or a quick product replacement, we are confident that we can rely on the support and service from our local partner IRMARINETECH.” DP World Yarimca's focus on technology innovation As a firm believer in digital transformation, DP World Yarimca continually seeks opportunities to enhance its physical infrastructure's efficiency. FLIR stands as a reliable partner, supporting DP World Yarimca's commitment to leveraging technology for future growth and security advancements. The port is actively exploring collaborations with FLIR to implement additional security measures and augment existing systems. Future collaborations and security advancements The port is already collaborating with FLIR to investigate how visible and thermal camera technology can bring the organisation additional security gains. The possibility of detecting fires in an early stage is a valuable contribution to the port’s security strategy One of the possibilities they are exploring is the addition of thermal boom cameras installed on cranes to monitor the surroundings of the vessels. Another application is the addition of thermal fire detection cameras. Many of the port’s customers are carrying highly flammable products into the port. The possibility of detecting fires in an early stage is a valuable contribution to the port’s security strategy. FLIR FH-Series R Thermal cameras like the FLIR FH-Series R can automatically spot small temperature changes in their field of view, identify hot spots before they ignite, and provide an early warning response to avoid a full-on fire outbreak before assets are harmed or safety is compromised. Upon detection, an alert can be sent to an operator through a connected Video Management System (VMS) for instantaneous assessment and deployment of response tactics.
360 Vision Technology, the UK manufacturer of ruggedised HD, radar, and thermal PTZ imaging cameras, has supplied its Invictus TX streaming camera surveillance technology for installation at South Tyneside Council (STC) car parks. Part of a wider STC CCTV surveillance scheme, thirty 360 Vision Invictus TX cameras have been installed by integrated technology solutions provider, North, to provide 24-hour monitoring for car parks located across South Shields. Challenges with existing CCTV Daniel Chappell, Technical Account Manager at North takes up the story, “Historically, South Shields had an existing public safety CCTV system, which was mainly street-focused." "However, this camera network had become unreliable with age, with some cameras being removed. As part of a project to overhaul the system, an opportunity arose for the STC car parks department to allocate a new surveillance solution, to cover its twelve town centre car parks." New solution requirements “After discussing the car parks’ CCTV requirements with long-term client STC, we set about securing a robust solution, with technical support supplied in discussions with the team at 360 Vision. We outlined the technical requirements and video transmission restrictions of the project to 360 Vision’s technical team and were delighted with the enthusiasm and technical understanding of the demanding requirements of this installation." “While cameras were required to replace existing devices, mostly in existing camera tower locations, the choice of video transmission needed to be re-considered, as the legacy fibreoptic cabling had become unreliable and a replacement fibre network would have been prohibitively expensive." TX streaming camera “On consideration of the cabling issue, 360 Vision suggested that we consider their TX streaming camera option, to transmit camera video wirelessly, over 4G mobile networks. This would have the benefit of substantially low-cost video transmission compared to the expense and civil works disruption required to own or lease a new fibre network, totally negating the need for fixed cabling." "Taking up the idea and to secure the best 4G network supplier for each TX camera, exact camera locations were provided and cross-referenced with network operators to provide the best quality of signal at each specific camera location.” Invictus PTZ TX cameras Authorised operatives in the field can view selected Invictus TX camera images using a laptop browser Utilising 4G unlimited data sim cards and backed-up by on-the-edge built-in camera recording, the new Invictus PTZ TX cameras are securing STC car parks with video streaming, supplying high-quality wireless images to a Veracity Viewscape VMS in the main STC control room. In addition to control room monitoring, authorised operatives in the field can view selected Invictus TX camera images using a laptop browser or mobile phone. Car park safety and security Councillor Jim Foreman, Lead Member for Housing and Community Safety at South Tyneside Council, said, “This investment forms part of wider improvements to our CCTV provision which is a vital tool in helping to keep our residents and visitors safe." “The surveillance flexibility and technology that comes with this new system greatly enhances the safety, security, and management of the car parks." Real-time monitoring "Staff has a reliable video system for monitoring the cameras and supporting them to manage and respond to incidents in real-time more quickly and effectively." "The upgrade demonstrates our commitment to providing safe and secure car parks, many of which hold prestigious Park Mark awards in recognition of good management and maintenance, as well as appropriate levels of lighting, signage, cleanliness, and surveillance.” Camera features Invictus TX cameras installed deliver close-up imaging via their 32x zoom lens and excellent night-time vision Featuring a continuous rotation pan, unobstructed 360-degree view, and 160-degree tilt, the 360 Vision Invictus TX cameras installed deliver close-up imaging via their 32x zoom lens and excellent night-time vision, being equipped with optional on-board white light LED technology. “If a network becomes crowded and the transmission bandwidth reduced, for example, during events such as the Great North Run, the TX camera will automatically optimise its video compression to maintain the best quality of video available,” Daniel explains. Comprehensive coverage “This advanced functionality offers peace of mind for STC car parks that the best quality video will always be received for monitoring, whatever the network conditions. And in the case of a network outage, no essential video will be lost, as back-up recording is stored in the Invictus TX camera head, ready for ‘on-demand’ download and viewing when the network has recovered.” The cameras provide comprehensive coverage of the STC car parks, at a fraction of the cost associated with traditional hard-wired video transmission infrastructure. Ultra-low light technology Adrian Kirk, Business Development Director at 360 Vision Technology commented, “The combined Invictus TX camera and integrated LED white light technology makes it the perfect choice for the demanding coastal environment at STC’s South Shields car parks." "For the ultimate in imaging performance, Invictus’ ultra-low light technology 1/1.9’’ ULL sensors deliver brighter, crisper, and more defined colour images, even at night time. We are proud to have delivered a practical Invictus TX-based camera solution as part of the STC CCTV network upgrade.”


Round table discussion
As physical security technologies become more complex, it is incumbent on the dealer/integrator to have the skills and expertise needed to ensure that a system operates smoothly. The value of integrators increasingly rests on the skill sets they bring to bear when installing a system. If the skills are missing, there is a problem. We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: What missing skills among security integrators can cause problems for customers?
The role of the integrator/installer in the physical security marketplace is shifting as technologies evolve and applications expand. Integrators are being faced with a need to augment their expertise both in a wider range of systems and deeper into the specifics of each increasingly complex technology. At the end of the day, it falls to the integrator/installer to ensure a system performs as promised, however much a consultant or even a manufacturer might be involved in the process. We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: How is the role of the security installer/integrator changing?
“Deep learning” is recently among the more prevalent jargon in the physical security industry, and for good reason. The potential benefits of this subset of artificial intelligence (AI) are vast, and those benefits are only now beginning to be understood and realised. But how can we separate the marketing hype from reality? How can we differentiate between future potential and the current state of the art? To clarify the latest on this new technology, we asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: What is “deep learning?” How well does the security industry understand its full potential?
