Securitas Technology Turkey has revealed the sixth significant technological advance that will affect the security environment in 2023. Over the past few years, security has become a strategic asset that goes beyond reducing risk but also provides efficiency. Security now plays an increasingly important role in the digital transformation of organizations. Today, as cyber security concerns grow, so does the budget that customers allocate to physical and electronic security.

Cybersecurity Securitas Turkey has revealed the top six technological advancements that will dominate the security landscape in 2023. Pelin Yelkenciolu, Marketing Director of Security Securitas Technology Turkey, said in the past few years, “Today, many organizations are focusing on optimizing their security investments. At this point, we expect hybrid and cloud-based solutions to gain weight. “A hybrid approach enables organizations to save costs and operate with high-performance in-house investments to improve safety and efficiency.”

Noting that the need for security will continue to be a top priority for organizations and individuals, Yelkenciolu shares the most important technology trends that will shape the security sector in 2023.

The Use of Artificial Intelligence Will Be Widespread

Artificial intelligence has been quietly used to automate security and business processes. But its use will become more widespread, and we will see new and exciting services in the coming years. Pelin Yelkencioglu said, “We believe that the combination of artificial intelligence and IoT (AIOT) will continue to be an important trend for 2023, reshaping the scope of the security industry by further advancing artificial intelligence. It will provide intelligent security and help increase the efficiency of operations in many industries and organizations,” he said, adding that Securitas Technology will also focus on developing technologies to create added value in this area.

More biometric security measures

Biometric technology will increase in the next 3–4 years. Modern security techniques like voice, face, and fingerprint biometrics and recognition provide more precise facility protection. Therefore, businesses will increasingly turn to biometric security systems because of their superior security.

Cybersecurity is the most serious risk.

This year, one of the hot topics will be cybersecurity. According to a Cybersecurity Ventures analysis, by 2025, the cost of crime will be $10.5 trillion USD worldwide. Businesses must become even more nimble. Securitas Technology Turkey has revealed the sixth significant technological advance that will affect the security environment in 2023.

This year, one of the hot topics will be cybersecurity. According to a Cybersecurity Ventures analysis, by 2025, the cost of crime will be $10.5 trillion USD worldwide. Businesses must become even more nimble and sensitive to the changing threat landscape as additional devices come online and take over as the hub of data processing operations. Companies must provide greater transparency to meet customers’ expectations of keeping their data private and secure. This will usher in a new cybersecurity model that relies on constant verification rather than just strengthening networks and systems. Decision-makers will seek to implement more aggressive cybersecurity strategies and select partners offering higher automation levels to counter potential threats.
For many organizations, restrictions arising from the pandemic have triggered the integration of physical security with video surveillance and access control systems, according to a report by Genentech based on the opinions of more than 3,700 security leaders worldwide. Some end-users had to take this step to manage the safe movement of workers on their premises effectively. Most respondents (64%) reported implementing video surveillance and access control to support physical security.

Ten years ago, employees of security departments oversaw the majority of the physical security systems in large firms. Physical security is now receiving increasing attention from the information technology (IT) division. Today, managing biological security systems is increasingly falling to IT. Access control, video surveillance, cybersecurity-related tools, video analytics, intrusion detection, facial recognition, security and operations analytics, perimeter security, license plate recognition, and event management technologies are among the ten security technologies that study participants plan to invest in by 2023.

Blockchain technology is the most secure transaction technology invented so far. The idea of this technology was discovered in 1991, but it gained little popularity in practical terms; ordinary people have not shown any interest in it.

How valuable and safe is the use of blockchain technology in real life? Blockchain technology is the most secure transaction technology invented so far. The idea of this technology was discovered in 1991, but it gained little popularity in practical terms; ordinary people have not shown any interest in this blockchain technology.

How valuable and safe is the use of blockchain technology in real life?
To understand how secure blockchain is, we first need to know how it works. Blockchain has three security aspects.

A block is created immediately if we send any money from our account to another using the blockchain. A coalition of blockchains stores all the information about a user’s transaction. Whenever

One such block is created; in this block, a unique code called a hash function is formed by performing cryptographic calculations. This calculation is called mining.

Due to cryptography, once a block is mined, it is already “unhackable.”
Each time we carry out a transaction in the same manner, a new block is generated, and when combined with the preceding block’s hash function, it generates a new cryptographic hash function. Cryptography is used to add a second layer of security to the previously unhackable block. Therefore, the same procedure is followed each time an account is used to transfer information or money. The term “blockchain” refers to a chain formed when the hash functions of one block are connected to those of another block.

These factors make blockchain a very safe and functional platform. One final point: Blockchain is not just used in the banking industry. Supply chain management, the educational sector, and other areas can use it.

Recent technological trends and innovations like AI, AR/VR, and their potential impact on business and society

AI, AR (augmented reality), and VR (virtual reality) are three technology terms that come together and have recently been developing a lot of practice and improvement in the related technological trends. The potential impact of these technologies can be seen in the fields of business, technology, education, new media, medicine, new art, and social policy.

Business and Technology Implications: Technologies using artificial intelligence through AI and data analytics can create opportunities to solve technical problems, which can help organizations improve work efficiency and determination. It can help drive innovation in customer service, productivity, and marketing. AR and VR can provide new business preparation, marketing, and training mediums.

Education and learning policy: AI improves classroom instruction while expanding chances for leisure and online learning. By using AR and VR as teaching tools, learning could be made more engaging and accessible. Innovating new media forms can be aided by AI, AR, and VR, which can also help supplement secondary strategies.
