Securing a cultural center in Ventspils, Latvia, includes a responsive security system to keep the building safe in lockdown as well as when the hall opens again.

Artificial Intelligence impacts the physical security industry directly when you consider that surveillance cameras are the ultimate end-point device, the “all-seeing eyes” of the Internet. Could “intelligence” be applied to optimize security operations? Learn from one security leader’s experience using AI to reduce tailgating and streamline security operations.

Leveraging Internet of Things (IoT) technology, along with a comprehensive security strategy and proper security technologies, can provide a solution, giving businesses across all industries more visibility than ever before. So how can business leaders utilize these technologies to safeguard their assets and optimize operations, and what do they need to consider?

Researchers in Australia are launching a study that will use facial recognition technology to better monitor koala behavior and ultimately aid in their conservation.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a new document, Artificial Intelligence and User Trust (NISTIR 8332), that is now open for public comment until July 30, 2021. The document's goal is to stimulate a discussion about how humans trust artificial intelligence (AI) systems. 

When it comes to intelligent video surveillance in particular, AI-driven products are beginning to unlock new functionality, and even change the role video surveillance plays for companies. From better sensors to higher resolution cameras to more efficient processing units, we're seeing an unparalleled convergence of hardware and software. And that's creating new opportunities for everything from intelligent threat detection to personalized customer experiences. We're just at the beginning of this journey, but it's clear that best practices are changing. Seemingly in real-time, security professionals are reimagining how they'll build their teams, structure engagements and define their value. We're all still building the playbook as we use it, but here are four new, unspoken "rules" for the new world of security - and how they'll continue to evolve thanks to AI.
