Access Control, Video Data
▶ IRVINE, Calif. - Arcules, a provider of unified, intelligent security-as-a-service
solutions, has integrated the Cloud-based access
control system by Feenics.
Combining the two Cloud systems is said to deliver a seamless,
automated connection that provides advanced levels of insight into
security events across a business' infrastructure. The integration
links Arcules' Cloud-based security platform with Keep by Feenics
to provide users with converged video and access control data.
Joint customers gain access to a unified monitoring experience
and the ability to view live and recorded video and associated access
control data. Stakeholders can also export recorded video
clips and snapshots from the Keep interface.
" Developing fully automated integrations with other Cloud-minded
organizations is an example of our commitment to creating an
excellent user experience, " says Nigel Waterton, CRO, Arcules. " Today,
there is more data available for analysis than ever before and
many times, systems still operate in silos. Allowing joint users to
fully and easily correlate data from access control and video surveillance
gives them a superior security management solution and
lets them focus on the core aspects of their business. "
After installing the Arcules plug-in for Keep's WinApp, users
can view video feeds in the Keep video player, aligning video and
access control data to support video verification events and informed
decision-making.
