SourceSecurity.com announces new column “Notes from Norstrom” on security & surveillance issues

April 22, 2009 - PRLog -- SourceSecurity.com (www.sourcesecurity.com), the complete security industry guide, has announced the launch of a new column ‘Notes from Norstrom’.

Authored by Pauline Norstrom, the well-respected expert on security and CCTV and Chairman of the CCTV section of the British Security Industry Association (BSIA), the fortnightly column will cover a wide range of the latest security and surveillance issues from retail security to overcoming the terror threat. Norstrom also heads-up the BSIA's technical committee - TC/10 - which focuses on CCTV standards and guidance and has looked at critical areas from digital video evidence to privacy masking. Norstrom is also the security industry's sole representative on the Programme Board of the National CCTV Strategy alongside key stakeholders such as UK police forces and the UK government’s Home Office.

She also is a member of the Board of Directors of AD Group and within that role, is responsible for the Worldwide Marketing organisation for the CCTV specialist, which is the parent company of Dedicated Micros.

Commenting on her plans for the column, Pauline says, “I will seek to place each talking point into context, in terms of the specification and application of the latest security technology, outlining the benefits and the pitfalls to be avoided. I intend to provide practical information on the implications of latest advances in surveillance solutions.”
