Threats to and the Protection of Critical Infrastructure

The predicted lack of sufficient energy caused by the interruption of gas supplied from Russia, the drastic price increase of certain raw materials and, above all, the attacks on the Nordstream 1 and 2 pipelines, as well as the attacks on the German railway network, have raised public awareness and that of politics, commerce and the media of just how critical and threatened critical infrastructure is (KRITIS).

Bosch: Artificial Intelligence in Building Control

The digitalization of buildings of all sizes promises to deliver significant benefits for their owners, operators, and the individual users. It already made the automation of system controls possible using smart technology a long time ago – but when confronted by increasing complexity, artificial intelligence makes its welcome appearance. First of all, you build a digital twin of the building, such as Bosch Building Technologies does. This provides the most transparent view of all the elements of the building’s technology – and shows their most efficient way of working together. GIT SECURITY spoke about the subject with Andreas Mauer, Chief Architect at Bosch Building Technologies.

Assa Abloy: A Door Closer That Opens Like It Isn’t Even There

When a door is equipped with a high-quality door closer, building users feel safer. They know that fire doors shut tight and sensitive openings are protected against unauthorized entry. But sometimes, door closer technology can also create barriers to genuine access-for-all. The problem is greater still for users who — for many reasons — have restricted strength or mobility.

Five Risk Factors with Overnight Deliveries

Deliveries at night are often conducted by logistics companies and third-party providers, whose drivers must have access to the building, storage or cold rooms outside of business hours.
