As Seen at the CAA Winter Convention
Cygnus Security Group’s roving photog Jim Benesh dropped us an email with a few scenes from this weekend’s California Alarm Association annual winter convention. The CAA winter convention is reportedly a great place to catch up with old friends as well as talk business with potential partners. Pardon the lack of captions (or use the “comments” feature to supply your own)!

Congrat’s to Jerry Lenander and the California Alarm Assoication on another great meeting and expo! Pete Harlick, Publisher SECURITY Dealer & Integrator magazine
We are a turnstile manufacturer, http://www.controlledaccess.com , and we hope to expand our integrator relationships as we’re international in scope, but have focused on architects/specifiers primarily. Any advice from you pros in the segment?
Paul, architects and specifiers are a good angle. Integrators and security end users read our magazine Security Technology & Design and SecurityInfoWatch.com, as well as our magazine Security Dealer & Integrator. Tradeshows like ASIS International Annual Seminars & Exhibits (fall, in Atlanta) and ISC West (spring, in Vegas) are good places to exhibit to show the audience exactly what you’re selling.
