Genetec Updates Security Center SaaS Platform
Home » Top stories » Genetec Updates Security Center SaaS Platform Genetec Inc., a global leader in enterprise physical security software, has announced new updates to its Genetec Security Center SaaS platform. The company revealed that since the platform's launch, it has delivered new features every 12 days. This approach ensures a flexible and open SaaS solution tailored to modern security operations. Genetec Security Center SaaS integrates video surveillance, access control, forensic search, intrusion monitoring, and automation in one solution. It supports cloud-only or hybrid deployments, giving organizations full control over their security infrastructure. The latest updates include: Expanded support for direct-to-cloud cameras Enhanced edge recording via SD cards New third-party analytics integrations Genetec reported that the platform now supports a wide range of devices, including models from Axis, Bosch, and i-PRO. This includes PTZ and fisheye cameras with automatic de-warping capabilities. Organizations can also use Genetec appliances to connect non-cloud-ready access control systems, cameras, and intrusion panels. This allows them to retain existing hardware and reduce costs. Video storage options remain flexible. Users can store video at the edge or in the cloud depending on bandwidth, policies, and operational needs. Centralized management is possible through both web and mobile applications. With built-in support for WebRTC, the platform allows direct peer-to-peer video streaming from cameras to the web interface. This feature reduces video load times and bandwidth usage ideal for live monitoring and large deployments. Genetec emphasized that the Security Center SaaS simplifies operations across industries such as retail, education, banking, healthcare, and urban infrastructure. Operators can manage security systems from a central SOC or remotely. Real-time alerts help teams respond swiftly. Additionally, open architecture enables integration with partner technologies. One example is new firearm detection analytics from Bosch, which can trigger alerts and activate workflows upon weapon identification. Christian Morin, Vice President of Product Engineering at Genetec, stated, 'Genetec is redefining what SaaS means for physical security. It's not just about moving to the cloud it's about flexibility to build, scale, and evolve systems.' He added that Genetec Security Center stands out by unifying physical security in one platform while continuing to support existing hardware and deployment models.

Genetec Launches AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports Plugin
Home » Top stories » Genetec Launches AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports Plugin Genetec Inc., a global provider of enterprise physical security software, has announced the launch of the AutoVu™ ALPR Analysis Reports plugin. The new tool enhances ALPR-based forensic search capabilities in Genetec™ Security Center. The plugin is designed to help law enforcement officers and investigators analyze vehicle behavior more efficiently. It allows them to narrow down suspects quickly by examining driving speed and identifying vehicle travel cohorts. As a result, it reduces manual data sorting and saves critical investigation time. 'This plugin gives investigators what they need to close cases faster,' said Steve Hins, Product Group Manager, ALPR at Genetec Inc. 'With just a few clicks, they can spot patterns and behaviors in vehicle data that would otherwise take hours or days to uncover manually.' The AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports plugin includes two major features: Cohort Analysis: Investigators can identify vehicles that regularly travel with a known license plate. This may reveal links to organized criminal activity. Officers can define how often vehicles appear together across multiple ALPR cameras. The system then detects patterns instantly. In cases like retail theft, this helps spot associated getaway cars. Investigators can identify vehicles that regularly travel with a known license plate. This may reveal links to organized criminal activity. Officers can define how often vehicles appear together across multiple ALPR cameras. The system then detects patterns instantly. In cases like retail theft, this helps spot associated getaway cars. Time and Speed Analysis: This feature helps detect vehicles with outlier speed behavior, such as those fleeing a crime scene. Officers select two ALPR cameras and a time range. The system calculates vehicle speeds between cameras and flags anomalies. For example, a vehicle traveling 60 mph in a 30 mph zone after an incident becomes a potential lead. The plugin offers a faster way to pinpoint suspects in events like hit-and-runs or organized theft. It turns large volumes of ALPR data into actionable intelligence within minutes. The AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports plugin is available globally. It is offered as a paid add-on for Security Center and can be purchased through the Genetec network of accredited channel partners. This launch strengthens Genetec's commitment to delivering advanced tools that support smarter, data-driven policing.

Genetec launches AutoVu plugin, ALPR Analysis Reports to speed up investigations - Middle East Business News and Information
ALPR-based forensic searches increase investigator efficiency and provide actionable insights. Dubai, May, 2025 — Genetec Inc. ('Genetec'), the global leader in enterprise physical security software, announced the AutoVu™ ALPR Analysis Reports plugin , an advanced investigation tool that expands ALPR-based forensic search capabilities within Genetec™ Security Center. The new plugin empowers law enforcement officers and investigators to quickly narrow down a pool of suspects using vehicle behavior patterns—specifically driving speed and travel cohorts. By eliminating manual data sorting and enabling targeted, efficient analysis, the tool is designed to save investigators critical time. 'This plugin gives investigators what they need to close cases faster,' said Steve Hins, Product Group Manager, ALPR at Genetec Inc. 'With just a few clicks, they can spot patterns and behaviors in vehicle data that would otherwise take hours or days to uncover manually.' The AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports plugin offers two key functionalities: With the Cohort Analysis feature, investigators can identify vehicles that consistently travel with another vehicle of a known license plate—revealing patterns that may point to coordination, accomplices, or organized criminal activity. Instead of manually reviewing read reports, officers can input a known plate, select relevant ALPR cameras, and define how often vehicles appear together (e.g., within a few seconds, across multiple cameras). The system then identifies potential vehicle cohorts instantly. In cases like organized retail theft, this is especially valuable: a known suspect vehicle might be linked to multiple incidents, and cohort analysis can reveal if another vehicle, such as a getaway car, is consistently nearby, helping investigators quickly narrow down their pool of suspects. The Time and Speed Analysis feature enables investigators to quickly identify vehicles exhibiting outlier behavior, such as those fleeing a crime scene, by comparing the estimated speed of vehicles traveling between two ALPR cameras. Officers simply select cameras located within a zone of interest and define a time frame (e.g., one to five minutes). The system then generates a report listing all vehicles that passed both cameras, along with their estimated speeds. This enables investigators to immediately spot anomalies—such as a vehicle traveling 60 mph in an area where most were going 30—without sifting through thousands of license plate reads. In incidents like a hit-and-run, this tool helps pinpoint suspects in seconds by revealing which vehicles sped through a defined area right after the event. Availability: The AutoVu ALPR Analysis Reports plugin is available globally as a paid add-on for Security Center, through the Genetec network of accredited channel partners.
