In this free preview of the Access Control Executive Brief 94, Lee Odess explores how the physical security industry stands at a critical inflection point. Explore how digital transformation has completely changed the lens through which we must view security challenges.
Just like a kaleidoscope creates entirely new patterns with the slightest rotation, our industry is experiencing a fundamental shift. We're moving from traditional access control focused solely on keeping bad people out, to a "Utility+" model that also drives operational efficiency and revenue generation.
Key topics covered:
- Why separating cybersecurity and physical security no longer makes sense
- How access control is evolving from a $10B to a $100B market opportunity
- The era of "Utility+" - when security transforms from cost center to strategic business enabler
- Why industry-wide collaboration and open standards are essential
- How we can collectively shape this new paradigm together
