“After spending the past eight years on the integration side of the security solution industry, I was looking for a real-time AI-powered solution that provided situational alerts when incidents occurred, rather than waiting for post-incident forensic investigation data.

Remark’s Smart Sentry Platform (SSP) and Smart Sentry Products are the most robust and innovative AI solutions in the global marketplace, providing real-time video analytics. I am honored and excited to join this team of industry leaders. Not only will Remark’s full suite of cutting edge analytics help secure numerous facilities in various industries throughout the United States and globally, I am extremely excited over the limitless opportunities here in my home town of Las Vegas and having a hand in keeping the entertainment capital of the world as safe and secure as possible,” says Matthew McGrath.
“We are delighted that Matthew has elected to bring his talents and extensive industry relationships for the benefit of both Remark and the customers we are servicing in the public security, hospitality and retail sectors,” says Kai-Shing Tao, Chief Executive Officer of Remark Holdings. “Public safety and security remains an important priority for Remark, as our suite of products and services have proven to be an effective solution in augmenting current security solutions with leading edge real-time analytics, giving security professionals additional tools to help maintain public safety.
