The training is co-sponsored by the Kingsport Office of Small Business Development and Entrepreneurship (KOSBE), and your Kingsport Chamber of Commerce. Lunch will be provided to attendees. This is a free event! The need for providing sound perimeter security is more important now than ever in today's business environment with accidents, theft, protection, Human Resource issues, etc. However, many security personnel are not sure if their current systems (cameras/access control) are sufficient or even where to start. Lack of personnel, network infrastructure convergence, resolution needs, and cost are but a few of the issues that security teams face today. . This event will focus on: Why businesses are ill prepared to tackle surveillance and access control issues. The complexity of security system management and the need for centralization. What to consider with current security systems/measures and how to integrate. Industry Specific Issues and Options (Healthcare, Public Transit, Manufacturing, Education, etc). Surveillance Analytics. Proactive and Self Learning. The cost is free, however registration will be necessary. Lunch will be provided and all attendees will be entered to win a GoPro camera!
