Johnson Controls is a global leader in smart, healthy, and sustainable building solutions
The Built Intelligence is a premier publication dedicated to the evolution of the built environment. As the line between physical infrastructure and digital intelligence thins, we provide the clarity required to navigate a world of smart sensors, autonomous systems, and aggressive sustainability mandates. Our mission is to transform the conversation around buildings from one of 'maintenance and costs' to one of 'performance and value.'
Through deep-dive reporting and data-driven analysis, we explore how the integration of AI and IoT is redefining operational efficiency and occupant health. We believe that a truly smart building is more than just connected—it is an active participant in a company’s success, contributing directly to the bottom line and the health of the planet. Whether you are a corporate sustainability officer or a lead engineer, this is where you find the blueprint for the next generation of infrastructure.

- IT vs. OT Security: Bridging the Convergence Gap to Protect Critical Infrastructure
In an era where operational disruptions can cause multimillion-dollar losses in hours, the traditional "air gap" between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) is no longer a security strategy—it’s a liability. For decades, these two worlds existed in silos: IT managed the flow of data across offices, while OT managed the physical machinery that kept buildings running, power f
- Why Security by Design is the Essential Foundation for Modern Building Automation (and Your ROI)
By 2031, a cyberattack is expected to occur every two seconds. For the modern facility manager or C-suite executive, this is not a distant hypothetical—it is a countdown. For decades, the building automation industry operated under a "patch-it-later" mentality, viewing security as a peripheral add-on to be bolted onto a system after commissioning. Today, that approach is no longer just an oversigh
