Technological Transformation in Security Firms

Abstract

This thesis examined the impact of advanced technologies on the operational efficiency of private security firms. The technologies studied included Artificial Intelligence (AI), laser-based security systems, and real-time data analytics. These technologies were found to provide private security firms with proactive and cost-effective solutions, contributing to improved customer satisfaction and enhanced client trust. The research focused on the implementation of these technologies within Abu Dhabi, using case studies from Finland, a leading country in security technology innovation. The study also addressed the ethical and operational challenges that arose during the transfer of these technologies. Qualitative research methods were used in this study, including interviews with industry experts and a review of secondary data sources. The findings highlighted the significant benefits of adopting these advanced technologies in security operations, while also identifying key challenges in their integration. The thesis concluded that the adoption of these technologies offers substantial potential for improving efficiency within the private security sector. Further research could focus on the long-term effects of such technological integration and propose strategies for overcoming the identified challenges.
