SHOW PREVIEW: IFSEC INTERNATIONAL A secure future
An extensive free education programme and the latest products for the security industry will all be available at IFSEC 2013
CELEBRATING ITS 40th anniversary in 2013, IFSEC International is the largest event for the security industry, welcoming almost 25,000 visitors and 700 exhibitors in 2012. Covering every area of the industry, the show has exhibitor zones focused on Integrated Security, Intelligent Buildings, IP and Networks, and more.

will host a free education programme consisting of webinars, white papers, seminars and keynotes. IFSEC International also has a range of theatres covering issues from applications of technology across integrated security and IP and networks to intelligent buildings and access control. The Centre Stage Seminar
Theatre has a programme of events designed to consider what the next 40 years of the industry will hold. At 15:00- 15.30 on 13 May the topic of ‘Safeguards for data centres: towards truly integrated infrastructures’ will be up for discussion. At 16.30 Mark White of TPS Consult-Carillion will lead a session on ‘Measuring the business impact of physical and information security convergence’. The following day’s schedule will begin at 10:30 with Peter Houlis of 2020 Vision Systems discussing ‘C4i: security systems integration and interoperability’. At 13:00 a host of industry figures, including Martin Gren of Axis Communications will be ‘Looking back, looking forward’ at 40 years of IFSEC International. A highlight on the following day looks set to be ‘Delivering future cities: security as a key enabler of smart cities’ with Balaji Srimoolanathan of Frost & Sullivan at 10:00. The new Intelligent

SHOWFLOOR Barix is heading to IFSEC with a new IP paging solution that allows end users and integrators to set up multipoint systems within minutes. The plug- and-play device
combines fixed and mobile paging to extend reach and
capability, while removing configuration hassles often associated with IP. The dedicated Barix Paging firmware enables the paging master to automatically identify all zones and Barix IP hardware on the network, including other paging stations and receivers. Furthermore, a Barix iOS paging app enables iPhones and iPads as paging devices – integrating the mobile capability into the overall solution.
The company will also showcase a collaboration with Enghouse Interactive, an enterprise-level communications software and services company, which extends the power of Enghouse Interactive Applications for Avaya CS 1000 to analogue speakers using low-cost Barix IP audio hardware to receive and decode live voice.
