ADRM Returns to ISC West 2026 with New Announcements and DEFENDER Updates

This year at ISC West 2026, Advanced Data Risk Management (ADRM) returned to the show floor, exhibiting at Booth 1058 along the main aisle of the Venetian Expo. Throughout the week, our team welcomed attendees to the booth that featured a 12-foot tall video wall.

On Wednesday, ADRM was proud to announce a new strategic partnership with the Secure Building Council to support the advancement of the SHIELD Certification Program. This collaboration focuses on enhancing how building security is evaluated and managed through standardized methodologies and scalable approaches. The SHIELD Certification Program provides a framework for assessing buildings across physical security, technology and systems, operations and procedures, and governance and compliance.

ADRM CTO Matt Isgur, ADRM President & CEO Dan O’Neill, Michael Neolia Co-Chair of the Technical Committee, and Secure Building Council Executive Director Derek Ommert,

spoke at the ADRM booth and shared insights into the significance of the partnership.

On Thursday, ADRM introduced a major enhancement to the DEFENDER platform with the launch of Design Studio, a new module designed to simplify how security system layouts and systems are designed. Design Studio allows users to take a floor plan, 3D rendering, or building image and transform it into a fully annotated, professional-grade security layout drawing within DEFENDER. Built to eliminate the gap between rough sketches and complex CAD or BIM tools, the module provides an intuitive interface that enables teams to design, visualize, and validate security deployments more efficiently.

With features such as an industry-specific device library, real-time field-of-view visualization, coverage heat mapping, and integrated bill of materials generation, Design Studio gives security practitioners a practical and accessible way to move from concept to implementation with confidence.

The Thursday announcement was accompanied by live demonstrations at the booth, along with fresh popcorn served to attendees, creating a steady flow of conversations around how Design Studio fits into real-world security design workflows.

In addition to the activity on the show floor, members of the ADRM team also participated in the Mission 500 5K, joining industry peers in supporting a meaningful cause during the week.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by Booth 1058 and spent time with our team! See you next year!
