"The dynamics of the Interactive Security market are becoming increasingly complex as technology firms arm all competitors with new capabilities making differentiation a challenge," Ablondi commented.  I will present my perspective on these developments and tackle the following questions:

• Who are the best prospects for Interactive Security? What are the behaviors and attitudes that separate them from the crowd?  How many are there and how much are they willing to pay?
• How Big, How Fast?  Will Interactive Security expand the market or just cannibalize existing subscribers?
• Which firms will capture subscribers?  Incumbent security providers, MSOs, Telcos, others …a look at 2013 and our projection for 2018.
• Beyond security service providers, what is the opportunity for firms supplying them?  A snapshot of Strategy Analytics' "Follow-the-Money" model for Interactive Security.

"Security service providers capture the headlines," noted Ablondi, "but there are a host of vendors that stand to benefit from the transition to interactive security including lock manufactures Kwikset, Schlage and Yale, as well as, technology enablers such as NXP, Qualcomm, Sigma Designs and Silicon Labs to programmable thermostat manufacturers like Carrier, Radio Thermostat Corporation of America, Residential Control Systems and Trane."

The Webinar will include findings from the Strategy Analytics' upcoming report Interactive Security: Market Outlook and Competitive Landscape.
