Safeguards Consulting Shares Groundbreaking AI Insights for Security Professionals at the IAPSC Conference

Safeguards Consulting, Inc. was proud to participate in the International Association of Professional Security Consultants (IAPSC) 2026 Conference, May 11 - May 13, 2026, in Chandler, Arizona, at the Gila River Resorts and Casino. During the conference, we joined numerous security leaders and industry professionals from around the world for a week of education, collaboration, and forward-thinking discussions. 

As part of the conference program, our President and Principal Consultant, Mark Schreiber, presented a new session topic titled "Artificial Intelligence 101 for Security Professionals." The presentation was designed to provide attendees with a practical foundation in artificial intelligence and its growing influence on the physical security industry.  

During the session, Schreiber explored key AI concepts and terminology, helping demystify a rapidly evolving technology that is increasingly becoming part of everyday security operations. Attendees gained insight into current and emerging AI applications, as well as the opportunities and challenges security professionals can expect to encounter as these technologies continue to develop. 

The discussion focused on real-world applications of artificial intelligence within security consulting and operations, highlighting how AI can support decision-making, enhance efficiency, improve threat detection, and strengthen overall security strategies. As organizations continue to evaluate the role of AI in their operations, understanding both its capabilities and limitations has become increasingly important for security practitioners. 

As both a presenter and a member of the IAPSC Board of Directors, Schreiber valued the opportunity to engage with fellow consultants and security leaders throughout the conference.  

Reflecting on the experience, he shared, “In addition to being a great educational conference, the knowledge sharing during the networking events was of great value in itself.” 

Safeguards Consulting extends its appreciation to everyone who attended the session, participated in discussions, and contributed valuable perspectives on the future of artificial intelligence in security. The level of engagement demonstrated the industry's commitment to embracing innovation while maintaining the highest standards of professional practice. 

The firm also thanks the IAPSC for hosting another exceptional conference and for its continued dedication to advancing the security consulting profession through education, networking, and professional development opportunities. 

As artificial intelligence continues to shape the future of security, Safeguards Consulting remains committed to helping clients and industry professionals understand emerging technologies and leverage them to create safer, more effective security programs.
