“Mohammad and Joshua bring us strong technology, commercial and industry leadership skills,” said David Bunzel, executive director of the PSIA. “They will be powerful evangelists for how standards-based physical security systems can help the industry create new opportunities for systems integration and data sharing, while solving cost and complexity challenges.”

As PSIA vice chairman, Jackson will work closely with Soleimani to educate the industry about the compelling business case for standards-based interoperability for physical security systems. He will play a major role in expanding the organization’s member base, and will help active members define strategies necessary to specify and/or adopt and implement PSIA specifications.

“I am looking forward to working with Mohammad, David and the rest of the board to help the industry understand our use case and encourage rapid adoption of PSIA specifications,” Jackson said.

At STANLEY Security, Jackson is responsible for driving product integration strategies and partnership efforts throughout STANLEY’s national customer base. As an active member of the security industry for nearly 20 years, Jackson has had valuable experience in large system sales, product management, product marketing and currently offers integral support to STANLEY’s engineering team.
