                    Education isn’t just for college students. Everyone in the workforce can benefit from continuing to learn throughout their career—especially those of us in the fast-paced, highly technical field of security.

                    The development of custom video drivers is a huge barrier for less-established brand names. From a stand-alone camera manufacturer’s perspective, it is impossible to gain market share without being included in the more popular VMS platforms. Without strong market share, however, VMS companies cannot devote the time or the energy to support these lower-tier brands.
