How can security leaders prepare for a future of AI using a TRUE Cloud VMS?
12:30 p.m. - Berton 4
The security industry, though initially slow to adopt, is now swiftly transitioning to the cloud. However, most video surveillance systems available today are either merely cloud-managed or, at best, accessible through the cloud. At Eagle Eye Networks, we advocate for #truecloud. True cloud means that all video is continuously stored in the cloud—without exceptions.
To prepare for a future where security evolves from a mere cost center to a strategic asset, security leaders and organizations must adopt forward-thinking SaaS strategies that leverage the benefits of an increasingly digital and interconnected world. This RMR approach will enable businesses to not only safeguard their assets but also drive growth and success.
