The Open Security & Safety Alliance (‘the Alliance’) is a non-profit, non-stock corporation that brings together like-minded organisations in order to outline specifications for a common standardised platform for security and safety solutions which are accessible for everyone.
The Alliance was formed in reaction to today’s market characterised by the continued evolution of the Internet of Things and the aggregation of data. Security and safety solutions are fragmented due to a lack of collaborative approach to common challenges including cyber security and common operating systems. This is holding back innovation and seamless integration. Many market players are competing on technical topics that do not necessarily make a significant difference for customers. The market needs a new direction, a framework that will enable the industry to focus on innovation and developments that add real value for customers.
