Avigilon Alta Video: Delivering effective cloud security

Avigilon Alta Video is the advanced cloud-based video management software platform from Motorola Solutions. The software, previously called Aware, has been fully rebranded after Avigilon Alta was launched as the safety and monitoring giant’s integrated cloud security and access control suite in 2023. It was originally developed by Ava Security before the company was acquired by Motorola Solutions in 2022 and became part of Avigilon.

One of the advantages of a cloud-based VMS like Alta Video is that you can quickly bring third-party cameras into an advanced integrated platform using cloud connectors.

Alta Video stands out as it is easy to use and has an intuitive user interface. Other key features are:

  • Always-on AI-powered audio and video analytics – so you can be pro-active. This will tell you what is happening right now, with alerts and alarms bringing these events to your attention.
  • Flexibility to get the best camera views – allowing you to select the best view so your operators gain a better, clearer understanding of different events captured by the camera and customise layouts.
  • Ability to investigate events quickly with Smart Search – allowing you to perform appearance and image detection powered by machine learning capabilities to comb through countless hours of video
  • Analytics that allows you to differentiate between people, vehicles and other objects to enhance your events search further
  • Map View with Smart Presence – allowing you to add maps in Alta Video to gain improved situational awareness and insights
  • Ability to create rules for extra security in a building: for example, its line crossing rule means you can ensure some areas can only be reached by accredited staff
  • Ability to use Alta mobile app: you can monitor cameras remotely and security staff can receive alarms while on patrol
  • Ability to integrate with other devices, including the Halo Smart Sensor, which extends your capability to protect people
  • LPR analytics: number plate recognition allows you to control entry to your property or car park. This feature is available with a dedicated license on your security camera

Secure and scalable system

Alta Video also makes compliance easier with a security-by-default approach, providing peace of mind for organisations. It’s never been easier to protect privacy and prevent cybersecurity threats with:

  • Automatic software updates from the cloud: ensuring more security and that you always know you have the latest analytics features
  • End-to-end encryption of data and metadata: So that data is kept secure and you meet your compliance obligations
  • Scalable, secure storage on the camera or in the cloud

Get started quickly and integrate with what you use every day

Avigilon Alta Video is also able to integrate with Avigilon Alta access control so that alarms associated with access control points and review entry and exit attempts can be viewed on the platform in real-time.
