Physical security often gets overlooked in our online world, where cybersecurity takes center stage, but it’s more critical than ever.

While cybersecurity is often taking the spotlight in discussions about security, it’s important to remember that physical security remains relevant in our online world. In fact, with the advent of some online conveniences, physical security is potentially more relevant than ever to protect people as well as assets that keep businesses operational. Thanks to modern security technology, many businesses simply install their cameras and leave it at that.
