"As a result, interoperability is being extended to other applications such as security".
As technology advances in the security industry from analog to digital to IP, vendors and customers are reviewing opportunities to secure facilities more comprehensively through multi-layered technology instead of isolated security products.
Corporate security services such as video surveillance, access control and fraud detection are increasingly database-driven and network-delivered, leading to IP becoming ever-more tightly tied in with physical security.
However, implementation has been sluggish due to low end-user awareness about the benefits of integrating disparate security solutions.
Also, the use of integrated systems has been restricted to high-end applications due to the high cost of network infrastructure and integration software.
"The convergence of physical security with IP involves a complex amalgamation of security and networking technology," comments Rao.
"In this context, superior customer service and technical support will be crucial to gaining a competitive advantage in the market".
Educating end users and distribution partners and making them aware about the considerable benefits and return on investment to be accrued from integrated solutions should be the key focus for industry participants.
Convergence of Physical Security with IP in the European Market is part of the Automatic Identification and Security Growth Partnership Service Programme, which also includes research in the following markets: European Access Control Market, North American Video Surveillance Software Markets, European Residential Security Markets, World Internet Protocol (IP) Surveillance Markets and World Financial Biometrics Markets.
