Security Exhibition & Conference
Now in its 30th year, the 2015 Security Exhibition & Conference features 140 exhibitors from the security industry, including Interlogix, Chubb, Central Security Distribution, Hills and Honeywell. The event also gives attendees the chance to hear from industry experts through two seminar programs — a conference program hosted by the Australian Security Industry Association Limited (ASIAL) and the free educational Security Seminar Series.
The ASIAL Conference Program, which is a two-day conference for security end users, features a line-up of experts including Bryce Blythe, chair of Crisis Management International in the US, and Dave Komendat, vice president and chief security officer of the Boeing Company.
The free Security Seminar Series, which is designed specifically for security installers and integrators, will provide practical advice and education based on current key industry trends.
Products which will be in contention for the Best New Product Awards at the Security Cocktail Reception on 16 July include:
- The Pyronix CLOUD app by Alarm IP Australia, which enables users to control their home security from anywhere in the world using their smartphone.
- The Protrac ID by TourTrac, a real-time reporting and recording device to track tour rotations of security guards, cleaners and maintenance personnel.
- The Gallagher mobile app by Gallagher Security, which means a site can have a greater physical security presence for no additional labour cost by enabling security guards to remotely monitor the site.
- The JustIN Mobile Key Technology by Salto Systems, which allows users to use their smartphone as a key to unlock doors and access areas.
- The Solar Cam by Spectur, which is a solar-powered, high-definition security camera system, providing a security solution for remote sites with no power or internet access such as construction sites and mine sites.
Security 2015 is being held at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre from 15 to 17 July. For further information, visit www.securityexpo.com.au.
