Security Systems News “40 under 40” Class of 2022

YARMOUTH, Maine—Security Systems News is excited to bring you this year’s “40 under 40” Class of 2022, made up of a diverse and talented group of young professionals representing the next generation of leaders in security.

This year’s “40 under 40” class features a stellar mix of security systems integrators, security consultants, security dealers and monitoring professionals, as well as end users and other industry professionals. The Class of 2022 also includes 15 women, up again from 2021, which not only reflects the increase in the number and quality of nominations we received for women this year but also continues to reflect the changing culture and dynamic within the security industry.

“This high-caliber group of young professionals who make up the Class of 2022 was very tough to narrow down, especially with the extremely high number of quality nominations we received,” said SSN Editor Cory Harris. “The ‘40 under 40’ awards are always a source of pride for me, knowing that the industry is in good hands with these future leaders at the forefront, many of whom have already made an indelible mark in the security space.”

Harris continued, “We look forward to hearing their stories when we spotlight the Class of 2022 in our special supplement coming out this summer.”

Another trend that continued with this year’s class was an increase in security professionals with cybersecurity and IT expertise, as well as the technical background and education to go with their business savvy and excellent leadership qualities. Many in this year’s class have helped guide their companies through challenging times the last couple of years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet, they have been able to leverage new technologies and best practices while striving to grow professionally.

SSN is also excited to team with the Security Industry Association (SIA) Women in Security Forum (WISF) again in 2023 for our monthly Women in Security series. This follows more than 10 years of highlighting women in our Women in Security December issue, which has now expanded with the SIA WISF partnership, as we both celebrate their accomplishments in every issue for 2023!
