Dean Drako says specific technology changes in 2022 had the biggest impact in 2022, and in fact, represent a turning point in the security industry.
With 2023 well underway, it’s a good time to look back on what we learned in the tumultuous previous year. In the security marketplace, there was no shortage of technology developments and a few challenges that kept 2022 interesting, to say the least. But what can we learn from the past? We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: What changes had the biggest impact on the security marketplace in 2022?
Every year the security marketplace is affected by changes in the economy, technological advances, geopolitics, and recently of course the global pandemic. In 2022 all those forces were at play, but it was specific technology changes, in my opinion, that had the biggest impact on the security marketplace. Specifically, 2022 was the year that artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) really became operational in video surveillance. New AI features, functions, and products were introduced in 2022, such as AI-powered video search and LPR technology, that will supercharge growth in our industry. Combining AI and the cloud is the catalyst for that growth. In the cloud, AI can continually improve and deliver economical, reliable security and business intelligence to security professionals and business owners. Currently, AI/ML + Cloud is just starting to shake up this industry. The technology changes of 2022 will be a turning point for growth.
