On Sept. 26, noted futurist Scott Klososky will discuss “The Technology Integration of Man.” Klososky will explore the integration of technology in our lives – from wearables and implantables to the rapid growth of AI and augmented reality – and will offer a glimpse of implications and what the future holds for businesses and security professionals alike.

“Our keynotes have a wealth of information and insight to share that make their presentations can’t-miss events,” says Thomas J. Langer, CPP, 2017 president, ASIS Int’l. “Their remarks will set the tone for each day – linking the evolving security profession to current/future technological opportunities and helping to frame the bigger conversations taking place throughout the week.
