Some of this threatens Axis’ bread and butter, which is around surveillance. 

Even then, Kenny advocates that surveillance technology has evolved beyond mere physical security and has become a critical enabler for intelligent decision-making, operational efficiency, and risk mitigation within the business landscape.

The discussion sheds light on trends in surveillance; the various cybersecurity measures that businesses should implement to protect their operations and sensitive data; the rise of AI; and deriving maximum benefits from video surveillance systems.
