Announcing the Ed Chandler Security Innovation Award
We are pleased to announce the introduction of the new Security Innovation Award. Named in honor of Ed Chandler, CPP, founder of Security By Design, Inc., the award will recognize annually an important innovation emanating from the security consulting profession. The innovation may be a service offering, process, or unique application of product or technology.
Ed passed away on Monday, April 7, 2025. He and co-founder Lorna L. Chandler, CPP, navigated the changing landscape of physical security from implementing the first international access control system in the 1980’s to today’s world of networked multifaceted systems. He was an expert in door hardware and was constantly pushing the envelope of what was possible in this realm. He championed new technology and brought people together.
The Ed Chandler Security Innovation Award will be presented at CONSULT 2025 on Saturday, October 4.
