Navigating data protection and privacy regulations
The importance of Responsible AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) can process a lot of data
very quickly. Because of that, interest in AI has been
growing in the physical security industry. Yet, if not
handled responsibly, AI-based technologies can be
developed or used in ways that intrude on privacy.
Everything from biases and discrimination to skewed
results and decisions are possible.
This is why there has been more regulatory focus on
AI-driven innovations—and why every organization
needs to be mindful of the solutions they choose
and implement. Choosing vendors that prioritize
Responsible AI is a must for those wanting to maintain
regulatory compliance.
At Genetec, Responsible AI means ensuring our AI
technologies are built with specific principles in mind:
Data is everywhere, there's no getting around it. We're
living in a data-driven, connected world. And though
new data protection and privacy regulations can seem
complex, they shouldn't come as a shock.
Responsible organizations know that these regulatory
frameworks and standards align with critical
business practices. And that comes with a broader
understanding of what compliance really entails: taking
a pragmatic and comprehensive approach to data and
privacy protection and partnering with trusted vendors.

How to choose the right vendor to maintain regulatory compliance
After all, ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory
frameworks isn't just about the technology you choose,
but also about the people you partner with. And
having partners on your side who value and prioritize
compliance with these regulations matters.
They'll have the resources, technology, legal knowledge,
contracts, and partnerships that will help you maintain
proper oversight, no matter how regulations evolve.
They'll also be able to provide a list of certifications
from governing bodies and regulatory authorities for
both their products and business operations. These
certifications are critical in assessing a vendor's
commitment to compliance and data protection.
