CNN-based low-light enhancement avoids the pitfalls of generative artificial intelligence In the rapidly evolving world of AI-powered imaging, it is easy to conflate all “AI enhancement” with generative methods. But when it comes to critical applications like surveillance, the distinction between generative and nongenerative artificial intelligence, convolutional neural network (CNN)-based enhancement is not just technical,… The post Improving Visibility While Preserving Video Integrity...| Security Industry Association
Endpoint Vulnerabilities Must Be Addressed Six years ago, a receptionist opened an email on her work computer. A seemingly ordinary, pedantic task. Unbeknownst to a menagerie of IT professionals at the time, this message was from her personal web-based email. But, still, none of this was out of the ordinary. For a plot twist, let… The post Is Your Security Solution Secure? appeared first on Security Industry Association.| Security Industry Association
Video Data Is No Longer Just About Security For decades, physical security has meant alarms, guards and maybe a wall of CCTV monitors. Cameras recorded a ton of video, but it was only ever reviewed after an incident, if at all. All those hours of footage were essentially left to waste, regardless of the secrets… The post The Rise of Vision-Enabled Operations appeared first on Security Industry Association.| Security Industry Association
Security Should Fit Seamlessly Into Modern Buildings As safety concerns rise in public and commercial spaces, a key question emerges: How do you secure a building without making everyone inside feel that they are in danger? Traditional security measures like reinforced bars, electronic turnstiles and metal detectors can be jarring. They may provide physical protection,… The post Integration by Design appeared first on Security Industry Association.| Security Industry Association
A recent comment from a senior security leader (formerly with a Fortune 50 company) cut to the heart of a growing debate. He said that edge artificial intelligence (AI) sometimes feels like a pricing tactic, a way for manufacturers to justify higher costs or lock buyers into proprietary ecosystems. While his caution has merit, it… The post Better Together: How Edge AI and Agentic AI Combine to Provide Speed and Judgment appeared first on Security Industry Association.| Security Industry Association
Defenses should not be limited to the internal environment Security is no longer just a single-layered effort. Whether managing a retail store, hospital or warehouse, securing a property requires a multifaceted approach that considers both physical and digital threats. By implementing a layered security strategy, businesses can effectively deter, detect and respond to security incidents… The post The Power of Layered Security appeared first on Security Industry Association.| Security Industry Association
Preparedness and the right architecture can provide powerful defenses The proliferation of uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), better known as drones, presents unique challenges for physical security. From nuisance incidents to deliberate malicious actions, the potential for drones to threaten privacy, safety and security is prompting many organizations to consider revising their physical security programs. But… The post Planning a Holistic Counterdrone Program appeared first on Security Industr...| Security Industry Association
