“Continuing education is crucial for security professionals in maintaining a working knowledge of the trends and technology current in today’s physical security market,” said Per Björkdahl, ONVIF Steering Committee Chair. “ONVIF is excited to support the SIA’s Video Surveillance track with a sponsorship at this year’s ISC West.”

The Security Industry Association offers its SIA Education@ISC West sessions April 5-7, 2016, in conjunction with ISC West 2016. SIA will offer more than 65 sessions over the three-day span, providing security professionals with continuing education opportunities on a wide range of physical security topics.

In addition to its sponsorship, ONVIF will be represented by more than 60 member companies exhibiting at ISC West, accounting for approximately 15 percent of all exhibitors at this year’s event. ONVIF will also be collecting feedback from attendees in the ISC West Exhibition Hall on ONVIF’s physical security profiles and future profile developments.

Founded in 2008, ONVIF now consists of nearly 500 member companies in six continents and more than 5,500 Profile conformant products. With Profile S for streaming video; Profile G for recording and storage; Profile C for physical access control and the Release Candidates Profile A, for access control configuration, and Profile Q, for improved out-of-the-box functionality, ONVIF continues to work with its members to expand the number of IP interoperability solutions ONVIF conformant products can provide.
