The migration of sophisticated analytics into practically every platform has been defined by the paradigm shift in physical security from a reactive and defensive proposition to a proactive one. 

End-users in the security industry are seeking more than detection and deterrence technologies. They want systems that are quicker and more intelligent, cost-effective, and better suited for integrated solutions. They now demand AI security camera systems capable of ingesting massive volumes of data and processing autonomously monitored replies at breakneck rates. In developing intelligent physical security systems, increasing the preemptive ante is a critical step. 

It’s also expanding beyond the commonplace use of video surveillance analytics to include additional sensory devices at the perimeter and access control into and across the internal security.

Artificial Intelligence is being widely used in the security field. More clients in the sector have realized the potential of AI in security and have discovered new applications for AI in a variety of situations. A few of them are listed below:

1. Surveillance cameras for crime prevention

CCTV cameras now include a layer of proactive hazard detection thanks to artificial intelligence and machine learning. Thanks to artificial intelligence, cameras can now detect prospective shoplifters and warn retailers of suspicious behavior.

2. For Home safety 

According to recent market research, home security is predicted to reach $ 74.75 billion by 2023, up from $45.58 billion in 2018. Artificial intelligence, deep learning, and the rising ubiquity of IoT-linked devices contribute to this growth.

AI security systems are changing home security because it can overcome the most significant problems with traditional home security systems: human error and false alarms.

3. Reconnaissance military

Artificial intelligence has enormous military potential. With military technology teeming with cameras, sensors, communication networks, and data that may benefit from artificial intelligence, there is a natural convergence between the two fields. On the contemporary battlefield, people’s ability to deal with the sheer volume of data is becoming an obstacle, affecting decision-making and the ability for information to trickle down to where it is most required.

4. Detection of Offshore Oil and Gas Threats

Artificial intelligence-based solutions have also made inroads into the oil and gas industry, which was only recently introduced to the advantages of IoT-linked equipment and improved communication to the outside world. Indeed, artificial intelligence is transforming how offshore oil and gas employees keep offshore oil and gas installations secure. To ensure cognitive security, numerous systems are now on the market that uses a combination of AI-driven software, sensors, real-time and historical data.

AI in Security Technologies

AI algorithms are used in many modern technologies, including security systems and gadgets, to improve their capabilities. An algorithm is essentially a collection of instructions that a computer or system will follow in order to complete a task.

AI algorithms can be used in security technologies to identify patterns and signals, detect anomalies in behavior patterns, classify and match images, and detect and identify pictures or materials.

The application of AI in security technology can bring significant operational security benefits, such as boosting the likelihood and speed of detection, lowering operator burden and tiredness, and assisting security professionals in focusing their attention where it is most required. 

At the management level, AI has the potential to decrease costs, direct resource allocation, aid decision-making, and even provide early intervention possibilities to counter internal threats.

Several security solutions incorporate a rudimentary degree of AI to accomplish a specific objective. In certain circumstances, AI-based technologies that do a lot of different jobs at the same time may appear to have a greater level of intelligence. However, this is not always indicative of a greater degree of AI; rather, the complexity and integration of decision-making, rather than the number of distinct jobs a system or device can accomplish, tends to enhance intelligence levels.

EndNote

One of the basic technologies that have reshaped the security business is artificial intelligence (AI). AI applications are gradually forming the basic functions and capabilities accepted by all sectors of the industry, thanks to algorithm optimization, improved computing performance, and lower chip costs due to advancements in semiconductor technology in recent years, and we predict an even stronger tendency to assert that “AI will be everywhere.”
