For more than a decade, the Security Industry has boasted that Integration is the key to success.  While this is a well-discussed topic, as an Industry we cannot seem to move ourselves past "Interoperability" rather than true integration.  Brenda Koesterman will speak on the difference between interoperability and Integration, why Integration is important and discuss the obstacles in place that are preventing Integration as an Industry whole.  Some organizations have achieved higher levels of Integration than others and what key indicators that show how to identify these organizations will be discussed.
