Deep learning and
other hot trends
I
n recent years terrorist activity in London,
Brussels, Paris, Barcelona, Berlin, Copenhagen
and Stockholm has played an important part in
making security and safety in society a political
and public high priority issue. The increasing
violence and crimes conducted by more or less
organised gangs has also played a role. These are
all factors that create frustration and serve as fuel
for loud public demand for more police officers,
but rationalisation through use of modern secu-
rity technology is more likely to get return on the
investments. The police do need modern tools to
handle today´s modern criminality.
Intelligent technology can make a big contri-
bution to a safer and more secure society if it is
used efficiently. Security technology knowledge
needs to have a much higher priority among
governments if crime fighting results and return
on invested tax payments are of high importance.
The necessity is to combine technology and hu-
man resources. For example, there are studies in
New Jersey that prove that the way police interact
with security camera systems is crucial for the
result of the technology investment. Combining
the benefits of security cameras with the police
advantages of human forces (police officers or
guards) is the right way, then the chances of
success in both preventing crimes and bringing
criminals to justice increases heavily. The installed
technology by itself is not good enough; neither
are human forces working alone.
Government spending will continue. An
example of a technology trend in this segment is
that 400,000 body worn cameras will be shipped
to law enforcement agencies globally in 2017 a
new record.
With all this in mind the security industry is
facing a very exciting future. New technology and
trends are also creating opportunities through
new business models. Investments in security
systems have previously been regarded as a cost at
the end of the value chain and have thus become
low priority in limited budgets. But network
cameras and IP-based access control systems now
provide value-added services to end users, in-
creased productivity, and reduced operating costs.
These benefits will move security further into the
value chain and lead to increased demand.
With this development, which is increasingly
based on combined solutions, system integrators
will become more IT-oriented, and the require-
ments for distributor technical skills will be
greater. IT skills are an important service for all
vertical segments, as it is essential for the security
industry to be able to deliver smart IoT solutions.
Therefore, requiring competence will be a big
challenge for the security industry.
The migration from analogue to digital
technology into security systems has been com-
pleted. As an example, in 2017 IHS estimates the
number of shipped network cameras for distribu-
tion through professional channels will exceed 98
million units.
With this IP-revolution the development
towards new, more convenient and more cost-
effective security solutions has increased with
pace. Add on the growing opportunities offered
by the Internet of Things.
What is still waiting in the wings to revo-
lutionize the security market and thus the fight
against crime is the increasingly sophisticated
video analysis. The development of artificial
intelligence (AI) in general - and towards "Deep
learning" in particular - will have a tremendous
significance in relation to proactive security sys-
tems, not least in video surveillance systems.
Digitalisation has also started a revolution in
the physical access control segment, as it is on its
way to be integrated with logical security. Access
control in combination with identity manage-
ment is becoming increasingly sought after. And
access control as a service is only in its infancy.
There is simply a lot of interesting things going
on right now.
At the same time there is a huge challenge to
face - cyber security in the increasingly connected
security systems. How do we secure the products
and networks against hacker attacks? That is one
of the biggest challenges of the security industry.
