Prosegur Security Announces Corporate AI Policy

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. — Prosegur Security, a global security technology leader, has launched a new Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy in an effort to proactively decrease risks associated with AI use.

The company states this new policy will serve as a guideline for the ethical, moral, regulatory and security values applied to technological solutions that incorporate AI. Prosegur claims that it is the first security company to establish a policy of this kind, and the policy will be adopted wherever Prosegur operates.

“Setting a framework for Responsible AI is not just ideal, but it is necessary for today’s security landscape,” states John Navarro, global president of technology solutions at Prosegur Security.

“Prosegur is leading the charge by ensuring Responsible AI through our new policy, and by setting expectations for our employees and partners to uphold a defined set of standards.”

The company notes that as artificial intelligence continues to gain popularity Prosegur’s Responsible AI Policy will protect and preserve the rights and freedoms of users affected by the application of AI technologies. Prosegur points out that in order to be a Responsible AI partner, an AI system must ensure a number of requirements including human action and oversight, technical soundness and safety, privacy and data management, transparency, diversity, non-discrimination and equity, environmental and social well-being, and accountability.

In order to comply with AI requirements, Prosegur Security has developed an AI governance model that includes the implementation of a corporate or local board, depending on where the project is located. Prosegur will hire a chief ethics officer, who will oversee compliance with the new policy and ensure Responsible AI is implemented with new technologies.

“I’m excited to be part of a team that will lay the groundwork for current and future technologies and part of a company that cares about safeguarding its users through Responsible AI,” adds Mike Dunn, CTO at Prosegur Security.

“With the implementation of Prosegur’s Responsible AI Policy, development of an AI governance model, and hiring of a Chief Ethics Officer, Prosegur will continue to be an innovative leader in the global security industry.”

Top 10 Security Stories From October 2021: China Ban Gains Steam, Vivint Countersues ADT

October saw its fair share of legal issues and acquisitions. This month, lawsuits involved home security companies, a gunshot detection provider and even a media company. Vivint Smart Home is seeking retribution for the lawsuit ADT filed against it last year that alleged Vivint salespeople go to ADT customers’ homes, get them to sign Vivint contracts and install the company’s alarm systems in their homes under false pretenses. Vivint had requested a motion to have that lawsuit dismissed, but when the judge denied the motion, Vivint launched a countersuit claiming it is in fact ADT that is deceiving and stealing its customers. Gunshot detection provider ShotSpotter filed a lawsuit against media company Vice, alleging it is profiting off of fabricated claims. Vice has been critical about ShotSpotter’s technology in a multitude of articles. Though not a lawsuit, Dahua and Hikvision continue to feel pressure from the U.S. government as it considers a new measure that would make it imp

Minnesota AG Calls for Cancellation of Home Security Contracts for Alleged Fraud

STEARNS COUNTY, Minn. — Bring Me the News reports that Minnesota’s Attorney General, Keith Ellison, says he’s gotten consumers in Stearns County out of home security contracts after they were misled by a door-to-door salesman. According to the report, Ellison’s office announced that home security companies Skyline Security Management and Safe Home Security have agreed to their cancel contracts with customers in and around Stearns County who purchased their systems from door-to-door salesman Gary Harvey. “Door-to-door salesmen and their employers are in the business of trust-building,” Ellison said in a statement. “They know they need to have your trust to sell you their products, particularly expensive products like security systems that are supposed to keep your home safe. When that trust is betrayed, it’s emotionally and financially painful. I appreciate Skyline and Safe Home taking the right step in canceling these contracts while my office does what we can under the law to hold M
