ISC Security Events Announces Two Keynote Speakers for ISC East Keynote Series
NEW YORK (PRWEB) September 06, 2018 -- ISC East, sponsored by the Security Industry Association (SIA), is proud to announce not one, but two new keynote speakers for this year’s inaugural Keynote Series. The ISC East Keynote Series features leading members of the security industry who are well known for their widely respected accomplishments and who are prepared to help security and public safety professionals gain new perspectives in order to arm them with the information they need to lead the security industry into the future.

Technology Disruption and the Physical Security Industry,” Philip Halpin, senior vice president and head of global security for one of the country’s oldest and largest privately held financial firms, Brown Brothers Harriman, will speak on how he deals with the demands on security and people management while riding the wave of technology disruption. Halpin also plans to discuss how technology has changed how we work and live and how it’s clearly poised to disrupt the physical security industry.
Day 2’s Keynote Series session on Nov. 15 will highlight James A. Gagliano, a retired FBI supervisory special agent, CNN law enforcement analyst and adjunct assistant professor at St. John’s University. Gagliano’s session, titled “Twenty-First Century Best Practices: Reporting From the Front Lines on How Law Enforcement and the Security Industry Are Confronting Emerging Threats,” will discuss some of the 21st-century changes in law enforcement and security postures and address recent responses to contemporary challenges, such as active shooters, bombings, VIP protection and drone applications, by identifying and breaking down an ever-evolving threat matrix.

Their extensive experience managing real-world security and safety issues will be very valuable for our audience at the show.The ISC East Keynote Series spans from corporate and private sector security to law enforcement and public safety, reflecting essential content in line with our ISC Security Events theme of Comprehensive Security for a Safer, Connected World,” said Will Wise, group vice president, security portfolio at Reed Exhibitions.
