You need to manage how the data collected by the people counting system flows through the network, ensuring minimal latency, optimal bandwidth usage, and secure data transfer to corporate databases or cloud services.
Scalability
Ensuring that the system can scale effectively across multiple locations while maintaining performance and without introducing unnecessary complexity.
Cybersecurity
Implementing robust cybersecurity measures to protect the system from potential vulnerabilities, such as data breaches, unauthorised access, or malware, which could compromise both the people counting system and your corporate network.
