ISC East offered an interesting array of press conferences, symposia and tours during the course of the trade show. In addition, organizers also offered several security tours of area attractions.
Keynotes included “Bomb Dogs-101”; “State of the Security Industry,” presented by Jeffrey Kessler, senior VP, Lehman Brothers; “Why Separate Security Departments Will No Longer Cut It,” presented by Todd Flemming, president and CEO of Advantor and Infrasafe Inc. While offered at a $225-per-tour premium, show attendees had opportunities to tour the security installations of the American Museum of Natural History, the FAO Schwartz toy store, and in a chillingly final glimpse of its greatness, the World Trade Center.
