Many high-quality education sessions on key topics of interest including terrorism, active shooters, digital forensics, video surveillance integrity, incident management, background checks, and public private partnerships are available on Sept. 30 and are included with this special one-day registration. A popular session at 1:45 pm, “Military and Law Enforcement Transitions: Strategies for Success” will explore key aspects of transitioning into the private sector.

Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality.
