First PhySec AMA via Slack: Featuring Verkada and their newly announced AI-Powered Unified Timeline, designed to reconstruct journeys across a property.

There’s been a lot of buzz following Verkada’s annual event, VerkadaOne. I shared some of my early thoughts and highlights on LinkedIn, which sparked an active discussion in The PhySec Collective Slack community. Out of that momentum, we’re launching our very first PhySec AMA via Google Meet (view/listen) + Slack channel #verkada-ama (questions/comments).

Details

Date: Tuesday, September 30th
Time: 12:30–1:00 PM EST
Guest: Abraham Alvarez, VP of Product at Verkada
Topic: Verkada’s newly announced AI-Powered Unified Timeline, designed to reconstruct journeys across a property.

Format

20 minutes: Presentation and conversation between Lee & Abraham
10 minutes: Q&A via Slack
Where: Google Meet (view/listen) + Slack channel #verkada-ama (questions/comments)

Join the The PhySec Collective community Slack channel to participate. If you are not signed up for Slack or have not accepted the Slack invite, you can sign up here or reply to this email and I will get you an invite.

This is a members-only event, and a bit of an experiment for our community. If it goes well, we’ll make AMAs a regular feature. I hope you’ll join us and help shape how these evolve.
