HID has highlighted 7 key issues that will impact on the physical security industry in 2022.
At the top of the list are supply chain issues. HID said semiconductor shortages, global logistics bottlenecks and corresponding cost increases will impact everything from readers and control panels to sensors and detectors.
The focus on sustainability will grow, driving suppliers to increase focus on digital solutions, including end-to-end mobile and multi-application technologies that reduce the industry’s footprint.
Digital-first mandates will see SaaS-delivered identities become not just the norm, but the expectation this year.
In 2022, there will be a tipping point for digital IDs to outpace physical ones and digital ‘servitization’ will play a vital role as suppliers organize around service models and service-led growth.
Hybrid work models are the norm today and a zero-trust approach for all is a top trend dominating the security industry in 2022. Touchless solutions, data protection and visitor management technologies are ensuring healthy and secure on-site environments while multi-factor authentication solutions are key for remote applications.
In 2022, biometrics paired with cloud-based identity management solutions is poised to fuel much faster growth. Security’s role in delivering contactless biometric technology that enables secure authentication and protects data privacy is emerging across sectors of the economy.
Balancing protection against the potential of new physical and digital cybersecurity threats has moved data science into the spotlight, as discussion turns from risk mitigation and prevention to threat prediction and aversion.
Finally, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) will become more tightly woven into the fabric of trusted identity solutions across the physical and digital continuum, automating and optimizing performance, accuracy, safety and security.
