The Hyderabad City Security Council (HCSC) is excited to host the National Physical Security Summit 2024. The theme of the summit is “The Evolutionary Aspects of Physical Security in the Digital Era.” The event is sponsored by the Association of Private Security Agencies (APSA) and aims to raise awareness about the importance of safety and security in society.
As Hyderabad continues to grow as a global city, there are new challenges in maintaining high security standards. The role of private security is becoming increasingly important, especially in this digital age. The physical security sector is currently undergoing significant changes to meet modern challenges.
The summit will be held on August 30, 2024, at the Telangana State Police Integrated Command and Control Centre in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. It will bring together leaders, experts, and advocates to discuss how to create safer environments.
In Telangana, there are nearly 4 lakh security guards who play a crucial role in maintaining safety. There is a need for better integration of these guards into the state’s overall security system. Learning about global best practices and adopting them can enhance safety and security in society.
The summit also seeks to engage citizens in security concerns proactively. By fostering leadership and creating a culture of security awareness, the event aims to contribute to a safer society.
During the event, the official logo for the Physical Security Forum, a key part of the HCSC, will be unveiled. This logo symbolizes the commitment to modernizing physical security in Telangana and across the nation.
The summit will feature panel discussions with experts from various sectors, such as corporate security, law enforcement, and educational institutions. These discussions will focus on the challenges and opportunities in adapting to the rapidly changing security landscape. Emphasis will be placed on the need for private and public sector collaboration to ensure a resilient and secure society.
