Anyone that owned a word processor in the 1970s, a personal computer since that time or a cell phone understands how quickly technology is evolving. They also know that the evolution of technology has an enormous effect on any type of operating system or appliance. In recent years the rapid evolution of information technology (IT) and related information systems (IS) has dramatically impacted the security industry. Facility security has evolved overtime from guards and key lock doors to electronic access control, camera surveillance and alarm systems. More recently these electronic and camera systems have been integrated together and with other technology to more effectively serve the user. At the current time, many organizations have found the need to converge their facilities security with the logical (IT & IS) security to fully protect all aspects of a business. When designing a system to meet the needs of even a small to medium size company or household these trends must be taken into consideration in order to have a security network that will be expandable and have the ability to "integrate" and/or "converge" with other systems or technology in the future as new and more sophisticate and technological advanced security challenges are identified by a company. ASCI's senior staff members are up-to-date and knowledgeable on all security system trends, experienced in all "integration" and "convergence" technology issues and are available to discuss the specific security challenges facing your organization both today and in the future.
