Two recently released reports highlight the increasing challenges faced by security practitioners, particularly those who have larger and more integrated systems between their IT and OT environments.
When it comes to smart buildings, one of the latest and most cutting-edge technologies available is artificial intelligence, or AI, sometimes also referred to as machine learning.
In the built environment there are few facilities as complex as commercial buildings. Consider that these structures must support hundreds or even thousands of occupants and visitors each day, and which have numerous subsystems necessary to maintain safety, comfort and efficiency.
When it comes to smart buildings it is all too easy to collect so many “toys” (technology products and solutions) that you can’t possibly use them all at once. With children this problem is easily solved. Simply put them away for a while and when you bring them back out they will be “new” and interesting again.
Smart buildings leverage automated processes to control infrastructure such as physical security (e.g. video surveillance and access control), lighting and HVAC. Many smart buildings rely on network-connected devices and other Internet of Things (IoT) technology in which sensors and software collect data to manage these systems.
This October marks the 18th annual Cybersecurity Awareness month. Over that span, cybersecurity has gone from being a topic the IT department mostly worried about, to one that is top of mind for everyone from the CEO to the receptionist at most businesses.
