Unyielding Vigilance: Supporting the Industry That Never Takes a Break

Welcome to the May/June issue of a&s Middle East magazine. While we approach the summer holiday season, our commitment to giving a voice to the dynamic industry that never rests remains unwavering. In this edition, we cast a spotlight on fire protection—an integral component of comprehensive security measures. We delve into the risks associated with lithium-ion batteries, the driving force behind our modern civilization. Understanding these hazards becomes paramount during the summer months when portable electronic devices and energy storage are in high demand. Our experts provide valuable insights into robust fire protection systems and strategies to mitigate potential risks.

In an exclusive interview, we engage with Leo Levit, chairman of ONVIF and a staunch advocate for security system interoperability. Levit emphasizes the significance of seamless integration and the pursuit of interoperability, which foster innovation and enhance the effectiveness of security measures through all-encompassing standards.

Furthermore, we explore Dell’s Solution Centers, a testament to their commitment to advancing security. These centers offer firsthand experiences of cutting-edge security systems across the Middle East and beyond.

In addition, we shine a spotlight on ScreenCheck, a breakthrough player hailing from the UAE. ScreenCheck distributes leading identification, biometric, and security brands across the Middle East and Africa, making significant contributions to the industry.

While you peruse this issue, know that we recognize the value of taking a moment to breathe and relax. However, let it also serve as a reminder that while others seek leisure and relaxation, security professionals tirelessly work to protect lives, assets, and the very fabric of our society.
