In an April, 2009 interview with Security Systems News, Parks Associates CEO Tricia Parks suggested traditional security companies needed to begin offering more value to compete with telcos who were undoubtedly ready to move into the security space. "Anybody who is already getting into the house has the potential to do security as one more thing when they get there," Parks said in April. "They're looking around, if not for this year, then for years ahead, saying 'Where's the next incremental revenue come from?' And in that context they're all looking at security."
