Along with digitization, innovation is also playing a key role in transforming the security solutions for every market and sector.For government agencies, reducing risks along with implementing cutting-edge technologies is paramount as it helps them safeguard confidential public information.

Government agencies are leveraging AI to gather all the data from such activities and extract insightful information from it to further improve and better the living conditions in smart cities to make them future-proof.
