Industry Veteran Tom Cook Named as Panelist for ISC West 2016 Best Practices Seminar

Hanwha Techwin America’s Tom Cook, Vice President of Sales, has been tapped to participate as a panelist on the End to End Best Practices in System Integration seminar at ISC West 2016. The panel will discuss best practices and product protocols that can ease integration and provide new, and improved cross-functional capabilities. Relationships between various systems will be examined with insight about how they can each be more effective when combined.

 

“Security professionals are looking for more than just monitoring capabilities with system cameras,” said Mr. Cook. “They’re looking for ways to better use the visual information to help ensure a safer and more secure environment. New imaging solutions with more powerful analytics, combined with the capability for integrating camera apps, are delivering the answer and creating a ‘win-win’ for end users and resellers alike.”

 

The seminar will be moderated by Ron Hawkins, Manager of Special Projects and Partnerships, Security Industry Association (SIA). Panelists, in addition to Mr. Cook, include Don Campbell, Director of Product, Quantum Secure; Rick Caruthers, Executive Vice President, Galaxy Control Systems; Mark Clifton, President, Products and Solutions Division, and Vice President, SRI International; Ken LaMarca, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, OnSSI; Ronnie Pennington, National Sales Engineer, Altronix Corporation; and Dale Tesch, Director of Professional Services, NTT Com Security.
