Every morning, your employees arrive carrying laptops, smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, wireless earbuds, metal water bottles, and charging cables. The average professional now brings up to eight distinct electronic items to work daily — each one triggering traditional metal detectors and creating bottlenecks at entry points.
Corporate security directors face an impossible choice: set metal detector sensitivity high and deal with constant false alerts, or reduce sensitivity and risk missing actual threats. Either way, employees start their day with an airport-like screening experience that undermines workplace culture and productivity.
The Medium-Volume Challenge
Corporate environments occupy a critical middle ground that existing security approaches fail to address. Unlike entertainment venues where people carry minimal belongings, or airports where extensive screening time is expected, offices need solutions for employees carrying multiple devices who expect streamlined, professional entry experiences.
Our latest whitepaper, “Balancing Security with Productivity in Modern Workplaces,” examines this challenge and explores how advanced AI-powered detection technology can distinguish between a laptop and a weapon, between car keys and a threat.
What You’ll Learn
The whitepaper covers:
- The Modern Professional’s Digital Inventory: Understanding what employees actually carry and why traditional screening fails
- Operational Impact: Real data on how conventional screening affects productivity and workplace culture
- Advanced Detection Solutions: How object identification technology transforms security operations
- Future-Proofing Strategies: Preparing for changing workplace technology and threat landscapes
Moving Beyond Metal Detection
Traditional metal detectors were designed decades ago for different environments. Today’s corporate security needs technology that recognizes the reality of modern work — where legitimate technology far outweighs actual threats, and where employee experience directly impacts productivity and retention.
Advanced detection technology offers a different approach: identifying specific objects rather than simply detecting metal presence. This capability allows employees to walk through screening with their belongings intact while ensuring actual threats are detected and stopped.
