Securing video analytics data: the law and best practice

Brett Sappington, Senior Director of Research at Parks Associates, says compliance and security considerations are forcing operators to decide whether or not data security should be part of their core business. “Do I have an internal group of security experts, or do I turn to experts outside of my organization? Many of them look at it and say, my core business is video, I’m not sure I want to be in the security business. Some do decide that they want it in-house, but for many they’re looking outside of their organizations for that security expertise.”
