Agenda

8:50 - 9:00 SMART Security Solutions welcome.
Andrew Seldon, Editor, SMART Security Solutions

9:00 - 9:30 Making data useful
Michael Lever, Director, Metagrated Consulting
Coming to grips with data, data, and more data from various sources, and transforming it into useful intelligence.

9:30 - 10:05 The don'ts of perimeter security.
Johan van Wyk, Sales and Marketing Director, FANG Fences & Guards
We always discuss what good perimeter security requires and what estates need to do to ensure safe perimeters. Johan van Wyk looks at it from the other side of the coin: what NOT to do if you want a secure perimeter.

10:05 - 10:35 Protecting estates from cyberattacks.
Roy Alves, Sales Director, J2 Security
Cyberattacks are a reality for estates. Whether it's ransomware or stealing personal information about owners and tenants, estates are a target, but are they defending themselves? Specialised cybersecurity is required to cover all entry points into your estate, from email to cloud services, wireless networks, and any and all connected devices. Roy Alves will present real-world advice and examples of cyber vulnerabilities we overlook every day.

10:35 - 11:15 Tea, Networking & Demonstrations.
 

11:15 - 11:45 The importance of integration beyond visitor management.
Kirby Rae Russell, Regional Sales Manager, Enkulu Technologies (Gauteng)
Kirby Rae Russell from Enkulu Technologies will speak about CloudKontrol, a cloud-based visitor management system. She will also discuss the importance of integrating VM functionality with other security systems (biometrics, card, mobile, etc.). A vital part of controlling people entering and exiting secure sites is also supporting operational functions and attaining the correct information. Kirby will address this as well as PoPIA issues these systems must support.

11:45 - 12:15 Efficient, effective disaster preparation.
Bruce Robertson, Executive Director, Centre for Security Management Studies
Preparing for and reacting to a disaster, whether fire, flood, riots, or the more common water and electricity outages, is something we all think we have a handle on. Then it happens, and nature (or less savoury types) cause havoc. Bruce Robertson will discuss real-world, standards-based disaster preparation and recovery processes and procedures with practical tools to ensure you are ready.

12:15 - 12:35 Long-range RFID vehicle recognition.
John Lakin, Sales Director - sub-Saharan Africa, STid
Licence-plate recognition is more popular than ever and very useful in identifying suspicious vehicles, but according to John Lakin, there are other (or even better) solutions for allowing quick and secure access to estates. John will discuss the long-range RFID solutions from STid and how they can streamline estate access control.

12:35 - 13:00 Gold Sponsor Panel Discussion:
 

13:00 - 14:00 Lunch, Networking.

14:00 - 14:30 AI analytics with weapon detection
Quintin van den Berg, Country Business Director Southern Africa, Bosch Building Technologies
The latest AI-enhanced video analytics provide excellent support to estate security operations, as long as they have been well designed and trained on reliable data. Bosch recently released its weapons detection analytics, which has proven itself very effective - along with the company's other AI-analytics. Quintin van Den Berg will discuss the latest AI and analytics capabilities from Bosch and where they deliver the optimal results.

14:30 - 15:00 Security and operations on your phone
Luke Rasmussen, CEO, My Estate Life
The ability to manage cameras or view alerts on a mobile device is nothing new, but the ability to integrate security and operations (including visitor and tenant management) from a single device, without being forced to update your estate's existing technologies and being locked into a single vendor is still elusive for some. My Estate Life understands integration and has created a cloud-based solution to manage almost every area of the estate from one screen.
