Jack Bauer quickly runs down a hallway chasing someone in a dark blue suit, gun in hand.

I would like to take a closer look at one of the highly talked about buzz words at ISC West – PSIM.  As a relatively new term used in the industry, it is important first to know how it is defined as well as if it is something that can be applied across channels and organizations alike.

As we continue The Great Conversation, we hope you’ve had an opportunity to review and think about the three key questions we posed at the Summit. These questions or ‘conversations’ are focused on trends, technology and solutions intended to help move forward and find best practices for the future of our industry. As such, we continue these ‘conversations’ with the intention that they will help you strategize to make those changes in your organization.

A recap of ISC West from Nigel Waterton, Director of Business Development

It was a great show this year! There were lots of new products and solutions showcased. Traffic was high as well as the energy from sponsors and attendees alike. Now that I have returned to my desk & gathered my thoughts, I want to share some of them with you.
