  Mark Visbal, SIA's director of research and technology, said DOD found that as many as 85 percent of the physical-access control systems at military bases could not be retrofitted for the HSPD-12 cards because the new cards hold more data than the old systems can process.
  ...
  There are a lot of challenges to integrating the new identity cards with building-access control systems, Visbal said, not the least of which is compliance with mandatory Federal Information Security Management Act standards.
  
  Another challenge is preparing employees to expect that it will take longer to open a door when they use their HSDP-12 cards in federal buildings.Visbal said he has seen employees become frustrated because the HSPD-12 cards can take as long as four seconds to unlock a door instead of the typical 500 milliseconds that workers are used to.

  This 2004 decision by the federal government required one universal means of identification for all federal employees and contractors, said Mark Visbal, director of research and technology for the Virginia-based Security Industry Association.
  
  This year the federal government will begin distributing those ID cards.They will contain both biometric data and security codes, and they will be used for physical access to buildings and facilities as well as for access to computer networks, Visbal said.
  
  Multinational corporations are starting to look at similar ideas because of the control and cost savings they can provide, he said.
  
  Small and mid-sized businesses have been slower to adopt such technology, Visbal said.

  Nationally, most false alarms occur because of user error, according to Mark Visbal, director of research and technology for the Security Industry Association."We know it is 80 to 90 percent," he said.
  
  "People do think about it ,- they forget their code, the dog bumps the door, they open the garage door and they don't call to say it is a false alarm," Visbal said.

  "It sounds strange, but home theater systems are the main driver for the uptake of technology in security and monitoring," says Mark A. Visbal, director of research and technology at the Security Industry Association in Alexandria, Virginia.
  
  Structured Cabling: All For OneThe real catalyst is not entertainment systems, but the structured cable wiring that enables them.Structured cabling,a network of wiring behind the walls that links voice, video and data functions,differs from the old-school method of having separate lines for separate systems.In short, the same network that can distribute music from one room to another can also connect cameras, motion detectors and other security devices both around the premises and at remote locations. "By all means, if you're building a house from scratch, you want to go with hard-wiring in the walls," Visbal says.
  ...
  "The main thing is getting away from plain old telephone service and moving to browser-based applications," notes Visbal.

  Mark Visbal, director of research and technology for The Security Industry Association says hidden wireless cameras are a good way to catch an employee who you think may be stealing from the company.
  
  "It could be a clock that's on the wall, it could be a book that's sitting on the shelf, it could be a clock radio, it could be anything," he says.
  
  Visbal warns though that sizing the camera's lens so that it focuses on the most important point in the room, for example the safe or refrigerator, is essential to catching an internal thief.

  SIA director Mark Visbal says the stated goal of the new system is vigilance against terrorism and the protection of the athletes who might be targeted.Says Visbal, "They'll be every bit as safe as they would be in the U.S. or one of the European Union countries."
