Digital transformation has been a recurring theme for the commercial and public security industry for more than a decade. Rapid technical developments are also not showing any sign of slowing down. All facets of security operations—including physical security, logical security, identity security, and cybersecurity systems—are digitizing, integrating advanced analytics and intelligence, and creating more proactive responses to threats and attacks. Further capability enhancement to encourage real-time detection, response, and mitigation measures will help make security operations more proactive and augment overall resiliency.
