Technology continues to shape the evolution of the security sector. There’s no doubt that innovations in AI, biometrics and the cloud have changed the face of how security systems are specified, installed and operated. Unsurprising then, that tech has been central to many of the predictions we’ve come across from thought leaders and vendors in the sector as they look ahead this year.
Below, we outline several key themes we’re seeing that are set to be at the forefront of physical security discussions in 2023.
1) Video surveillance – AI expands the frontier for security
Video analytics have evolved. Genuine artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning programmes have allowed video surveillance cameras to become a central feature in data collection. From a security perspective, AI-based applications enable operators to respond to potential threats faster than ever, while simultaneously reducing false alarm notifications that plagued earlier analytics models. The metadata generated from sensors allows for new opportunities, too – assisted search capabilities designed to drastically improve the effectiveness of post-event investigations, for instance.
