Synectics Security is rebranding to Ocular Integration (Ocular) under new leadership with the appointment of new managing director, Chris Jepson.
With a ‘hands-on’ background in security technology engineering, and over two decades’ industry experience – including 18 with the company, Chris is ready to lead Ocular into what he believes is an exciting new era for the business.
Chris comments: “The security market in the UK and Ireland is experiencing significant growth. It’s also changing at pace. The physical and cyber risks facing the sectors we serve are increasingly sophisticated – the solutions required to tackle them often must be too. At Ocular, we have both keen vision and ability to help customers navigate this changing landscape.
“We have a vast network of technology partners and decades of technical and project management experience. All of which means that whether an organisation needs the latest in AI-based analytics, the ability to leverage cloud-based surveillance for real time security oversight and incident management, or advice on updating and unifying existing technologies – from intrusion detection and access control to security barriers – we will always focus in on what matters to deliver solutions perfectly tailored to specific needs and budget.”
The company will continue to operate out of its Nottingham HQ, building on the 45-year heritage established under the Quadrant Security Group and Synectics Security brands.
