Tiivistelmä
This topic was chosen due to the author’s long work history in a private security firm, and experience in using Access Management tools with Surveillance tools.
The object of the thesis is to analyze the Internet of Things of today’s networks tasked with monitoring security and consider the devices that are the main components of these networks. Considerations include their current technologies and operation, and possible improvements aimed to improve future products and services that private security companies will be available to provide.
The author’s practical experience will be complemented by the following books: The Internet of Things, Collaborative Internet of Things for Future Smart Connected Life and Business, and Enterprise IoT: Strategies & Best Practices for Connected Products & Services. Further sources of information include technical documents and user manuals of devices, tools, and services that are available to today’s employee working in private security.
The Internet of Things is already in use in many aspects of security services, specifically access control and surveillance technology. However, there is room for considerable improvement in making these two systems more reliable and there is potential for great improvement of security services effectiveness by unifying these two systems, and work is being done to do just that.
The future may see security companies providing completely mobile video surveillance services. Drone technology, as it matures, is likely to play a big role in the implementation of such services, making them a possibility to consider, when providing flexible services to clients.
