If there is any broad lesson we have learned over the past decade of global developments, it is the extent to which risks are connected and the shocks that can result if we do not acknowledge their linkages
Safe driving practices are undoubtedly proven to reduce traffic and pedestrian accidents, which makes roadways safer for all. Abiding by local traffic laws can also keep your car insurance down, as moving traffic violations can dramatically increase your rates, or lead to possible license suspension or revocation.

Truth of the matter is that access control systems are more prevalent in terms of the sheer number of systems deployed, the size and scale of deployments and actual daily engagement by users. And for good reason! When a potentially threatening event unfolds, an access control system can instantly shut down a facility, or specific areas within it, potentially saving lives.

A lack of security can impact an organization’s growth and innovation, making it more difficult to meet workforce and customer needs.
There is a need for security teams to consolidate their security solutions to increase visibility, reduce clutter, manage costs and simplify their cybersecurity processes. However, it’s important that we are clear with why security teams are facing this situation.
