The development of China's security industry must also be "soft", "hard" and concurrent.

After the global financial crisis, the economic recovery in 2011 finally gave security providers a sigh of relief. The security industry is not immune to the global economic crisis, but most companies are still able to cope with it and make corresponding technical adjustments. Emerging companies are competing with existing brands to offer new options at lower prices. The increasingly fierce competition has forced companies to provide better solutions and develop more cooperation.

While the industry is gratifying, it is plagued by another fact: the most profitable chip and other products in the security industry, the majority of core technologies are controlled by foreign manufacturers, and Chinese security companies still obtain "hard work." Some industry sources stated that the important reason for the large and not strong Chinese security industry is the lack of independent innovation and design and R&D capabilities. At the same time, it must also change the emphasis on the hardware represented by chips and ignore the status of software development platforms.

At present, the development of security and hardware in the security industry can be said to be a rapid development period. The pace of hardware is stable and unstoppable. Security software is in its infancy, especially the system management software in the security industry. Start.

The software under traditional thinking mode always appears as an accessory of security hardware products. It is often forgotten in the corner of “value” but becomes the “focus” of customers. Therefore, the gap between “value” and the contradiction of “status” often occurs. Being ignored, this is also the reason why security software cannot form climate and development.

Security industry With the continuous development of demand, software and hardware have begun to gradually balance in the security industry, breaking the previous 80%, or even more to the extent that they are based on hardware or completely rely on hardware. From hardware to software, free of charge to the appropriate fees, and then to the custom development of the system, the customer has reached a new height in terms of demand. In the face of a broader market, the development of the software industry as a new breakthrough point in the security industry, more and more The more people see this market.

With the development of technology, the monitoring platform software has transitioned from the integration of simple functions of the previous monitoring system to the separation of the core platform and business implementation modules. In other words, the monitoring platform software will provide video access, distribution, storage and management, and it is the core system for monitoring services. The service implementation module will provide flexible functional service presentation based on the customer's functional requirements, and will integrate more other business systems into the business module software. For example, how do you combine the services provided by the monitoring with other security systems to display a unified interface and how each system implements the system linkage function?

Hardware is the foundation of the security industry, and software determines the future of the security industry. In this process, the status of software will receive more and more attention, but in the face of fierce market price competition, how to move toward a healthy cycle is also worth thinking.

When it comes to software, we cannot fail to mention Milestone, the online video management platform vendor, which occupies an important position in the global network video management platform market. International giants such as GE, Honeywell, and Bosch have all proposed solutions for the entire industry. After careful study, it will be found that such large international companies all have their own set of software, the core competitiveness in the software, the modular combination of hardware products through the software, making the hardware products without exception.

Reliance on hard, soft and soft has always been a chronic problem in the industry, and a variety of reasons have caused domestic security software companies to be in a weak position. With the development of network video surveillance in full swing, the concept and requirements of end-users for network video surveillance have gradually become clear, and the importance of software in the surveillance system is gradually strengthened. Domestic security software urgently needs self-improvement and accurate positioning to occupy a place in the security industry. Therefore, the development of China's security industry also requires "soft", "hard" concurrently.
