G4S Secure Solutions intends to give away iPads to 10 attendees at ASIS 2010 this week. Winners will be drawn from attendees who pick up iPad entry cards at the G4S booth and get them stamped by G4S security officers attending the show and circulating throughout the ASIS show floor. The promotion will celebrate the company’s name change from G4S Wackenhut to G4S. To win an iPad, attendees must have their entry cards stamped with all three elements the new G4S provides to customers — technology, manpower and innovation.

FLIR Systems will have live demonstrations of its new, affordable, high-resolution 640 × 480 thermal security cameras at ASIS 2010. These high-resolution 640 × 480 thermal security cameras give security professionals four times the resolution of earlier generation 320 × 240 products. This lets security professionals cover the same area with fewer cameras. These high-resolution imagers provide better image detail, superior range performance, wider coverage areas, and more reliable results when used with video analytics.

Videx invites you to stop by its booth at ASIS, where it will be showcasing the new CyberKey Vault 20. This smart key cabinet offers a whole new level of accountability and key control. Electronic keys that are stored in the vault contain no permissions to open any locks in a facility. When an employee needs a key, their RFID card or PIN must be entered to open the vault and request a key to be programmed and released. The key that is released contains the access permissions specific only to that person so they can do their job: what locks they may open and when. The vault keeps management informed through the audit reports and alerts that are automatically sent to them.

 

Infinova will showcase its partnership with Milestone, in which Infinova’s integrators and distributors can help customers control video surveillance, reduce maintenance costs and protect their business environment by offering Infinova megapixel and IP cameras installed with Milestone Systems XProtect Video Management software. Because Milestone’s products are based on an open platform that uses the TCP/IP network protocol, Infinova integrators and their customers will be able to build the video surveillance solutions using standard video and computer hardware.
