Vidsys’ Impact on Smart Cities In Security Middle East Magazine

Vidsys was featured in the May/ June 2017 Issue of Security Middle East. Below is an excerpt from the article.

James Chong, the founder and ceo of Vidsys, reckons that for cities CSIM (Converged Security and Information Management) – which was introduced two years go – is a natural evolution of the PSIM concept. Chong explains that, with converged security and information management, the information management aspect is becoming all about big data and the IoT (Internet of Things), the smart city, the safe city, and smart transportation: “What we are now seeing is that the data can come from any source and everything is, basically, becoming connected. The definition of IoT is advanced connectivity to sensors, devices, systems, and sub-systems and services, which are then connected to the cloud.”

Chong believes that the Middle East is certainly one region where CSIM is gaining legs.
