Bonus: All SNG attendees will receive a copy of the 2023 SIA Security Megatrends report following publication in early December.

How can security solutions enhance the value of commercial real estate for property managers, owners and tenants? In our “Security as Proptech” session at SNG, leading experts in commercial real estate technology and the security of office environments will explore the interconnection between the tenant experience and security solutions and how these same security solutions help generate data to allow owners and managers the ability to study the efficient use of buildings. Presenters will also highlight new research from SIA into the proptech market for the United States.

Bonus: As part of SNG and as presented during this session, all attendees will receive SIA’s new Proptech Research Report that explores market and growth opportunities for security solutions companies.

In this discussion that brings industry leaders together with practitioner perspectives, we address the question: How do you monetize and productize artificial intelligence? And we ask: What is the value that CSOs need from AI to solve challenges of identifying hidden threats and risks? From video to facial recognition to interrogating data lakes for hidden meaning, our panel will explore what’s real and what’s still a dream for tomorrow.

Get inside the minds of the creators of some of the most successful security industry firms.

The SNG cybersecurity panel will provide a holistic executive view of cybersecurity, and a few of the core topics that will be addressed as part of this important session include:

• Cybersecurity of IoT devices, including industrial control systems and security systems
• Nation-state hacking and other sources of challenge for top cybersecurity leaders
• How cybersecurity leaders can share intel and coordinate with physical security leaders to prepare to face threats with multiple vectors
• Artificial intelligence impact on cybersecurity

How do top security end users and CSOs find meaningful intelligence from the high volume of data that security solutions and threat monitoring technologies provide to their teams? How do they find the insights from the noise? What role do advanced technical solutions play in this space? And how are emerging risks and corporate needs changing their security and risk management strategies? Our panel of security leaders from top companies and organizations will address these questions and more.

Relax with other security industry leaders and enjoy food and drink.
