Bloomberg Biometric Security and Safer Cities Summit
An intruder with physical access can do more than simply steal information; they can shut down entire businesses and public services.
The greatest threats to an organization are still physical.
Artificial Intelligence is transforming industries at an accelerated pace. While the opportunities are limitless, the ability to understand and implement transitions from man to machine is fraught with hurdles. During this half-day event in New York, Bloomberg will focus on some of the industries being transformed, and what that means for investors – both in how they invest, and in what assets they choose to invest.
Through on-stage panel discussions and presentations, we will take a closer look at how funds are leveraging AI technology, what specific companies are doing to advance technology in their industries, as well as the challenges, risks, and factors at play when removing human decision-making from the investment process.An intruder with physical access can do more than simply steal information; they can shut down entire businesses and public services. With terrorists and criminals having already identified the real world as the weak link in digital security, physical security will become increasingly important to keeping the virtual world up and running.
In this shifting security landscape, Bloomberg will gather some of India’s leading security experts to tackle the most complex issues head-on, and help security and risk managers identify new security threats and the innovations that will shield businesses and cities.
