EDITORIAL LETTER

The security industry has always contributed to the goal of increasing the feeling of security in verticals and users by offering customers the best option according to their budget and their needs. But with the arrival of the pandemic, new challenges appeared that forced the sector to find other solutions and take advantage of some that had not been so crowded, which offered security to people, not only in attacks or robberies, but also in personal protection to avoid the massive spread of the virus in different spaces.

Dear readers and friends of the electronic security industry in Latin America, after six years of being at the head of the magazine VENTAS DE SEGURIDAD and almost ten years of belonging to the publishing house LATIN PRESS INC., it was time to say goodbye. 

The Internet changed our lives. Nowadays many of our functions, tasks, appointments, even business, depend heavily on this platform. It is clear that this technology has led us to progress, that we are already much better informed, that we can control what we want to see, we can even buy almost anything we want.

There is no doubt that the Latin American Security Association (ALAS) has been doing valuable work that is worth highlighting, and should be taken as an example for other Latin American unions that also fight to keep the electronic security industry ahead.

The last two years have been convulsed for most Latin American countries, with situations that have brought direct consequences to the electronic security industry, affecting the sustained growth it brought years ago.
