About the Event

Providing security at the more than 5,000 public airports and nearly 15,000 private facilities in the United States is as challenging as it is critical. Each year, more than $200 million is spent on video surveillance and access control equipment alone, with the market expected to grow by 11% this year, according to a report produced by Omdia for the Security Industry Association.

The next SIA Vertical Insights Symposium will take a closer look at airport security and will feature expert analyses of threats and countermeasures.

Session topics will include:

  • Securing a top 20 airport
  • The federal role in air security
  • Technology solutions for airports
  • Vertical market research findings
