The most recent release of our Instant Connect software solution, which includes an integrated phone dialer and live video streaming client now available to customers. Cisco Instant Connect supports public safety, utilities, and industrial customer needs with multivendor, interoperable-broadband technologies and provide the ability to connect different systems that unify P25, LTE and public safety broadband technologies.
Keeping schools and students safe and secure is a priority. The Cisco Secure Public Places holistic approach to school safety and security integrates physical security devices with IT infrastructure to secure K – 12 environments and leverage Cisco’s board product portfolio to move security from a forensic tool to a preventative and automated solution.
Video Surveillance and analytics are key components of the safety and security of many organizations and Cisco’s Intelligent Video solutions use these elements to provide real-time monitoring of the environment, people and assets providing a recorded record for investigative purposes.
Connected Assets for Sites leverages Cisco’s fog computing, industrial router, IP cameras and management software to enable customers to gain visibility and remote management of unmanned assets. Business Intelligence (BI) insights allow optimize operations while improving efficiency and productivity.
Cisco Connected Transport is driving greater safety, efficiency and mobility by using Cisco converged networks which enable data sharing across all modes of transportation
Safe and Secure Campuses at colleges and universities help create environments where students can thrive. The Cisco holistic approach to safety and security integrates physical security devices with IT infrastructures.

We were also pleased to work with several partners at the show including:

In support of Cisco’s IoT strategy, we have teamed with Identiv for access control and identity management. Identiv brings significant experience and capabilities to the physical access control market, and has built up a reputation for open standards, high security and reliability.
iOmniscient talked about its IQ Smart Cities initiative and inclusion as a key component in Cisco ‘s Intelligent Video solution. iOmniscient’s focus is on making cities safe, smart and efficient by pulling together its capabilities in video, sound and smell analytics focused on behavior, license plate recognition and face recognition in a crowd.
