    2026/08/25
    In this episode of Security Tech Talk, host Steve Kenny sits down with Eddie Reyes, a US law enforcement veteran whose career spans frontline policing, emergency communications, and public safety technology. Describing Eddie as a rare "security unicorn," Steve highlights his unique ability to combine decades of operational experience with a genuine passion for emerging security technologies. Together, they explore how AI, cloud connectivity, drones, and intelligent video are reshaping command centres—and why experience on the ground remains essential for making technology truly effective. Drawing on more than three decades of experience - from carrying six-shot revolvers and shoulder-mounted VHS cameras in 1980s Washington, D.C., t to directing a 120-person 911 emergency communications centre and managing security for luxury megaprojects in the Middle East—Eddie reflects on how public safety technology has evolved. Along the way, Steve and Eddie explore why cameras should now be viewed as intelligent "super sensors" and discuss AI-powered analytics, live video dispatch, drones as first responders, and why human-in-the-loop AI is essential for saving lives, reducing administrative burden, and helping security professionals make better-informed decisions. About Our Guest: Eddie Reyes is a decorated US law enforcement veteran with 28 years of frontline policing experience and four years as Director of a 120-person 911 emergency communications centre outside Washington, D.C.
