Pandemic Adaptation Means Smarter Commercial Buildings
The world has not had a pandemic on this scale for a very long time. Comparable crises come from a distant past where statistics are largely estimated, when our society was less globalized, and many steps back in our ability to enact public health regulation. Many of the previous viruses themselves may have been as […]
“Opening” the Door to the Future of Access Control
“Open” is not a term generally used to describe improvements in security but in this age of highly connected buildings, access control stands increasingly alone with it’s siloed and proprietary technology. Open access control is not particularly new, it has been over six years since Axis introduced its open Network Door Controllers, but they and […]

The Living, Breathing, Thinking, Learning – Human Smart Building
The analogies between smart buildings and the human body persist reliably in industry media and analysis. While they are, in essence, nothing more than novel comparisons, they serve to help us understand the digital evolution of buildings in the cyber-physical age. By extending these analogies and recognizing their limits we can wrap our minds around […]
37.8% of Smart Building Automation Systems Were Attacked in H1 2019, Kaspersky Reports
Almost 4 in 10 (37.8%) computers used to control smart building automation systems were subject to some kind of malicious attack in the first half of 2019. That’s according to the results of a study of smart building threats conducted by global cybersecurity firm Kaspersky. The study, which was released during the Kaspersky Industrial Cybersecurity […]
TIA Leads Discussion on Edge Data Centers, IoT Standards & 5G for Smart Buildings
Public Key Infrastructure could Emerge as De Facto Credential for IoT Devices
You can’t just walk into a secure building and start tampering with the air conditioning or access control systems without proper authorization, such as a pre-registered ID from a trusted company. On the cyber-side of our smart buildings, however, security failings mean that hackers can virtually stroll into the building and access whichever system they […]
Smart Buildings Set For Big Smart City Integration Drive in 2019
A city is essentially just a collection of buildings. A smart city, therefore, should be a collection of smart buildings. However, the development of smart buildings and smart cities has, so far, been relatively independent of one another. At the door of the building, a new network begins, with a new set of applications, and […]
