Luminys to Showcase Connected Security Ecosystem at Security Canada Central 2026

Connected video, cloud and access control solutions reinforce Luminys’ focus on flexible, real-world security deployments

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Luminys Systems Corporation, a leading provider of smart, sustainable and connected technology solutions, today announced that it will showcase a focused selection of its connected security ecosystem at Security Canada Central 2026, taking place October 21–22 at the Toronto Congress Centre.

At Booth 1102, Canadian security professionals will have the opportunity to explore Luminys’ connected ecosystem, including commercially available solutions across intelligent video, video management, cloud services, access control and networking. Building on the connected-ecosystem approach introduced at ISC West 2026, the Security Canada Central showcase will focus on how integrators, dealers, and end users can apply these technologies to real-world projects and select the right deployment model for their operational requirements.

“Security professionals need solutions that fit the way their sites actually operate,” said Wayne Hurd, VP of Sales. “At Security Canada Central, we look forward to showing Canadian partners how our video and cloud offerings can support different deployment demands and discussing when cloud, on-premises or hybrid management is the right approach for their customers.”

Flexible Security for Real-World Deployments

Luminys will lead its Security Canada Central showcase with LumiCloud Video Surveillance as a Service (VSaaS), LumiCenter Video Management System (VMS), and LumiViewer , demonstrating how organizations can manage and access security systems across different operating models.

 At Booth 1102, Luminys will offer live demonstrations of its video management and cloud solutions.

More broadly, Luminys’ ecosystem at the show will also include intelligent cameras and edge devices, access control and networking technologies. Together, these offerings demonstrate Luminys’ approach to connecting security devices, video management, cloud services and building systems within a more cohesive workflow.

The showcase will highlight practical capabilities for real-world security requirements, including intelligent video search, low-light performance, active deterrence, remote system access and management, access control, and flexible network connectivity, helping integrators evaluate the technologies and deployment models that best fit the needs of each site.

Supporting Security Requirements Across Canadian Environments

At Security Canada Central, Luminys will highlight applications across logistics, retail and demanding outdoor environments. In British Columbia, Luminys technologies support more than 110 camera endpoints across Pantos Trucking’s Tsawwassen logistics facility, spanning warehouses and outdoor yards.

Retail sites have diverse operational needs, including visibility across locations, remote access and efficient incident review, while colder outdoor deployments require solutions suited to site and environmental conditions. Together, these examples underscore a practical approach: security architecture should reflect the realities of each deployment rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Education Session: “Weathering the Cloud: Is VSaaS Right for You?”

Luminys will extend that discussion through an education session titled “Weathering the Cloud: Is VSaaS Right for You?” on October 21 at 12:30 p.m. ET in Pinsent 2.

Presented by Paul Chen and Dyllan Hurd, Regional Sales Managers at Luminys, the session will provide a practical comparison of cloud, on-premises and hybrid video security approaches.

Attendees will learn:

When VSaaS may be the right choice for a deploymentHow cloud, on-premises and hybrid models compareWhere remote management and off-premises storage can add valueHow operational, technical and budget requirements can inform deployment decisions

The session is included with Security Canada Central registration.

LEAP Group Relaunches HumanView, a Growth Intelligence System Built to Explain Why Customers Behave the Way They Do

Published

Reimagined from the ground up, HumanView pairs statistical modeling with expert analysts to turn millions of real-world customer signals into business decisions

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LEAP Group today announced the relaunch of HumanView, its growth intelligence service. The new version has been rebuilt from the ground up and now has a dedicated home at leapgroupnetwork.com/humanview.

HumanView analyzes what customers say and do across social platforms, e-commerce sites, review platforms, search behavior and user-generated content, including signals from Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, Amazon and Walmart+ that general AI tools cannot always access. Because the data reflects unprompted, real-world behavior, it avoids the response bias built into surveys and focus groups.

The service works in three layers. HumanView captures signals at scale, decodes millions of records through validated statistical models such as regression, correlation and clustering, and then relies on experienced analysts to interpret the patterns. Clients receive clear, human-validated insights instead of another dashboard.

“Machines find the patterns. Humans find the point,” said Alan Gilleo, CEO at LEAP Group. “The first version of HumanView showed us how much customers reveal when nobody is asking them questions. This version is built to explain why they act the way they do, and to put those answers in front of everyone making decisions, from product to service to marketing.”

HumanView focuses on three areas:

Growth Intelligence: customer motivations and how people perceive a brand and its competitors

Market and Category Intelligence: product pain points, service friction, unmet needs and competitive gaps

Audience Intelligence: new segments, positioning opportunities and gaps in the market

Every model is designed and validated by data scientists and benchmarked before it informs a recommendation.

LEAP Group is a boutique marketing agency holding company with offices in Louisville, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Chicago. Guided by the belief that brands should “Market Less.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

Published

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
