General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) is a global integrator. Their perspective on security: that it is another mission critical area they are in the best position to advise and serve.

Continuing the Conversation

Every year at the ASG Summit, The Great Conversation presents a 'State of the Industry' panel to discuss events that may lead to significant breakthroughs for the security industry stakeholders. (Watch video excerpts from the State of the Industry panel here)

In this continuing video series, Nigel Waterton, Vice President of Strategic Development and Global Alliances for Aronson Security Group, outlines why he approaches technology vendors (or, as some in the industry call them, manufacturers) and service vendors as partners.

The term 'partner' seems to be a pejorative to many security executives and consultants. How can you partner with a product technology company or resell a product without being biased?

This is the second video interview in a series (see the first one here).

In this interview, William Plante, an industry risk and resilience veteran and the executive leader of the evolving Professional Services Group at Aronson Security Group, makes a startling statement: "I am the Global Security Network."

Today we are releasing a series of video interviews that took place in Seattle in the first quarter of this year before the Great Conversation in March. It introduces a global information technology company, a security integrator, a product technology company and risk consultancy reviewing their efforts over the last year to redefine how they engage their clients.

We captured live interviews on the floor of our Great Conversation event in Seattle in March of this year. The interviews featured attendees, speakers, and sponsors.

ASG recently attended the Secured Cities Event in Chicago hosted by Cygnus Business Media.  With over 150 attendees, the event showcased presentations and technology important to securing our cities.  

If you are a part of a team challenged with securing a city, there is an event next week in Chicago you don’t want to miss!  Secured Cities, hosted by Cygnus Business Media, is the premier conference for anyone part of urban security or municipal surveillance in North America.  This two-day conference runs April 19 – 20 and will be held at the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile Hotel.  Aronson Security Group will be participating and looks forward to learning more about the critical issues facing our cities and their safety teams.  

Recently Aronson Security Group (ASG) announced they had been named an Elite Partner by ASSA ABLOY, a technology vendor who supplies door opening solutions in the security industry.

If you want to trigger a lively conversation among a group of folks who work for an integration firm, ask them what the word "integrator" means.

You'll hear some highly debated, well thought-out descriptions that generally fall somewhere between "installer" and "miracle worker." A traditional A/V integrator's opinion will differ from that of an IT integrator, whose take will vary from that of a security integrator. Then there's the outlook of a super-sophisticated security integrator that considers itself to be part of the IT equation and has a profound appreciation for what A/V firms do - a company like Aronson Security Group (ASG) - and the conversation reaches new heights. That's what I found when I posed the "integrator" question to a group of ASG executives.
