Show News

ISC West 2019 is in the industry’s rear-view mirror, and what a show it was! The busy three days in April offered a preview of exciting technologies and industry trends for the coming year. We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: What was the big news at ISC West 2019?

This year at ISC West brought plenty of new and innovative solutions to the top of many minds last week. The show floor was buzzing all three days and based on the conversations I had in the airport after the show ended and on Monday when I finally got back to my desk, ISC West 2019 will have a lasting effect on the rest of the year.

By the end of the three-day security extravaganza also known as ISC West, I've seen and heard about hundreds of products and solutions. I'm ready for a break. Typically, that comes in the form of an airplane ride home. Not this time. At the end of the day on Friday, I had booth appointments with Seagate, and staffers Jessica Burton and Ted Oade. We talked briefly about the Seagate solution but I kept my eye on the race car track they had set up in their booth.

The excitement of ISC West 2019 continued until the very end – almost. Exhilarated by the first two busy days of the show, attendees and exhibitors seemed to welcome a slower third day. There were no complaints about booth traffic, and still plenty of thoughtful conversations taking place, everyone determined to maximize the value of face time with customers until the last second.

I’m struggling to wrap up ISC West 2019, the big security conference in Las Vegas last week. I walked away going: Hmmm … what did I just see there? Maybe I’m just getting old, but it was hard for me to discern any particular themes or point to many stand-out products this year on the residential security or home-automation front. Here’s what I’ve got:

One of the most exciting aspects of a trade show is the reveal of new products. However, with so many exhibitors at major shows such as ISC West, it’s understandable if you miss a few. But never fear, SSI is here! The slideshow below contains an assortment of surveillance cameras that were revealed at ISC West 2019.

ISC West is one of the biggest security conferences in the world, with biometrics being no less an important topic than at any other security-focused event as the technology boom continues, so it was only fitting that FindBiometrics would catch up with ISC West’s leading organizer before the end of show last week.

FindBiometrics is reporting live from Las Vegas this week, where the biometrics industry has descended on the largest converged security trade show in the Americas: ISC West. As the conference’s biometrics media partner, we are proud to bring you the big product announcements and expert discussions straight from one of the most important identity industry events in the world.

LAS VEGAS — Just like that, another ISC West is in the books. The country’s largest security industry trade show had something for everybody: robotics, public safety, home technology and of course, physical security. In addition to the usual new product releases, there was also plenty of talk about AI and the Cloud, as well as a handful of companies moving further into the commercial space (welcome back ADT Commercial).

A big slap on the back to the staff at SIA and ISC West, including the hundreds of exhibitors at this year's ISC West. The second day was incredible. Attendees and exhibitors alike have to be pleased with the technology and innovations on display. Here are a few things I learned yesterday.

Thinking that Day 1 was going to be “as good as it gets” tech-wise was a clear misjudgment on my part. Day 2 brought the SIA New Product Showcase winners and I was all too happy to see that two of the exhibitors we selected to visit were proudly displaying their ribbons. As on Day 1, attendees not only visited the larger exhibits but significant booth traffic also found the main hall’s far aisles and the [almost] remote Connected Security and Emerging Tech Expos.

There are many new technologies at ISC West this year. There are also some tried-and-true solutions on display. More mature products have the benefit of being fully vetted and battle-tested, which may make them a more comfortable choice for security customers. I had a couple of discussions on Day 2 of the show about the advantages, and possible drawbacks, of new products.

Time flies when you're enjoying a trade show! It feels like the past few days have gone by in a blur. Every person I talked to this week spoke about how busy the expo hall was and how many productive conversations they have had at the show this year. When it is so busy, it is hard to stay dialed into the news, updates and announcements from the show. So be sure to check in with our Live From ISC West social media zone every now and then to scan what's happening on the show floor so you don't miss anything.

Delivering on high expectations, the first day of ISC West 2019 kicked off with a crowded Sands Expo Center and exhibitors putting forward their best new technologies. Developments seemed more evolutionary than revolutionary, but attendees quickly found plenty of interest.

LAS VEGAS — The head of security at the San Francisco 49ers Levi Stadium said Thursday it is imperative for Congress to give the National Football League and other U.S. sports leagues venues the legal authority to shoot down drones, which the American government recently identified as the greatest national security threat.

ISC West 2019, the year’s biggest security tech trade show, began with elevated excitement of large exhibitors in a new product introduction cycle, primarily in the Sands main exhibit hall, as well as increased traffic to the ISC Emerging Technology Expo. All the following new show exhibitors had booths packed with promising tech and visitors.

ISC West is so huge that I often forget that there is more to it than an Expo Hall in the middle of the Las Vegas strip. Each year, ISC West in partnership with SIA, puts together a string of educational sessions to help attendees further their knowledge on certain topics. Here's the top three sessions the Security Today team hope to be sitting in on

The 5th annual Most Valuable Product (MVP) Awards recognize products in video surveillance, access control and more, that make a substantial impact on integrators. LAS VEGAS — In addition to celebrating security dealers and systems integrators for their marketing, business, installation and overall excellence during the SAMMY Awards at ISC West, SSI also recognized a selection of standout products across a variety of categories.

You may have sensed the media and marketing buzz around converged security has been intensifying over the last few weeks. This is the normal course of things in the industry as we grow closer to what is arguably the most important conference and trade show for security end users and systems integrators alike. The International Security Conference & Exposition – also known as ISC West – is the largest converged security trade show in the U.S., covering everything from video surveillance, access control, biometrics, smart home, public security, drones & robotics and more.
