Imagine, just a few years ago you installed state-of-the-art technology to solve your business needs, but now your needs have changed. What do you do? If you’re locked into a single solution provider, you have to hope that they have something that meets your needs, or possibly—and very expensively—you could replace your whole system. But does it have to be this way?

On this episode of Connect, we sit down with Leonid “Leo” Levit, Chairman of ONVIF and Director of System Integration, Platform Solutions, Axis Communications to discuss industry standards and the importance of interoperability. As the security industry’s premier standardization forum, ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) promotes the development of open standards for IP-based security products. These standards, or profiles, ensure greater flexibility and product choices, all while helping to future-proof security solutions.

From airports and universities to critical infrastructure and retail stores, technology standards are helping organizations leverage wide-ranging and often disparate systems. Join us as we learn how open standards benefit everyone—encouraging innovation and even uniting competitors for the good of an industry.
