VIDEO SECURITY SOFTWARE FOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Prevent threats and downtime at scale
The stakes couldn't be higher in critical infrastructure. Milestone’s open-platform video technology provides a powerful and flexible toolset for protecting against breaches, failures and downtime.
Keeping society running
Critical infrastructure is the backbone of our society. Disruptions to essential sites such as water facilities and power plants can range from inconvenient to catastrophic. Prevent or mitigate these with proactive, centralized, and AI-driven video software geared towards the high-stakes needs of critical infrastructure security.

Detect disruptive drone activity
Add aerial detection to your perimeter protection. Radar or thermal cameras integrated with XProtect automatically detect drones, assess the threat, and alert security staff if necessary.
Control access to sensitive, authorized-only areas
Strengthen security by combining access control and video. Grant or deny entry based on visual verification and track intruders in real time.
Prevent copper and equipment theft
Deter thieves with visible cameras, flashing lights and other methods — while using analytics to detect and alert security personnel to suspicious behavior such as loitering.
Enhance intrusion protection
Use AI-driven BriefCam analytics to monitor perimeters and restricted areas; detect and track any unauthorized people or objects, while alerting and directing responders.
Prevent equipment overheating
Detect overheating before failures occur. Integrated thermal and video surveillance technology spot anomalies early so preventative measures can be taken. 
Spot leaks early
Prevent the disruption, non-compliance, and energy waste caused by difficult-to-detect leaks. Infrared cameras alert operators and help assess the severity.
Identify early signs of smoke and fire
Stop outbreaks from escalating with early detection. Sensor-integrated video surveillance alerts operators and helps them assess the threat.
Ensure PPE compliance and keep workers safe
Keep personnel safe and the facility compliant with automated personal protective equipment (PPE) violation detection. Supervisors receive instant notifications if rules are not being followed.
Protect against cyber threats
Avoid cyber breaches and disruption. Milestone products’ regularly updated security features protect your systems — while redundancy and high availability ensure continuous operation.
Manage and monitor multiple sites from a central location
Connect all sites and servers and control all components, protocols and settings from a single central hub. Efficiency and response times are increased, while remote monitoring reduces costs.

Cybersecurity
Gain control over complex security

Increase efficiency and control by bringing dispersed sites and servers under a single pane of glass. XProtect’s central interface makes accessing and sharing live and recorded footage easy. You also have the flexibility to deploy Arcules video surveillance as a service (VSaaS) to remote sites or use a hybrid combination with XProtect.

  • Improve efficiency and response times by managing multiple locations from a single command center 
  • ​Reduce operational costs with remote monitoring of dispersed site with minimal on-site staff 
  • ​Ensure all sites adhere to the same protocols to strengthen your physical and cybersecurity infrastructures  
Track and stop intrusions

Make access impossible for unauthorized people. Combining XProtect Access with broader Milestone video surveillance creates airtight perimeters without inconveniencing personnel. Any intrusion triggers an alarm, while cameras track the unauthorized person in real time.

  • Strengthen security with visual verification at all access points 
  • Confirm identities and detect and track threats in real time ​ 
  • Grant or deny access through the XProtect Smart Client 
  • Keep a record of everyone accessing restricted areas for post-incident investigations  
Add AI to situational awareness

BriefCam video analytics add an extra layer of situational awareness to security and safety. The system immediately alerts security teams when an unauthorized object or individual enters a predefined zone. ​BriefCam analytics also help facilities prevent accidents and compliance violations by detecting if personnel aren’t wearing personal protective equipment (PPE).

  • Move from reactive enforcement to proactive prevention 
  • Prevent breaches or theft, along with the downtime these cause 
  • Assure worker safety while preventing liability
Prevent disruptive and dangerous overheating

With thermal technology integrated into Milestone video management software, you can see threats that aren’t visible to the naked eye. Thermal technology continuously monitors heat levels, identifying overheating components or potential leaking equipment before they fail. It’s a proactive approach that helps prevent equipment failure, maintain peak efficiency and avoid costly downtime. 

  • Ensure uninterrupted operations 
  • Take proactive measures to adjust cooling systems and prevent failures 
  • Reduce energy waste by monitoring and optimizing heating and cooling 
Seal your systems

Cyber threats have become just as dangerous and costly as physical ones. Any vulnerabilities can be the gateway to security breaches. Milestone products are developed according to meticulous cybersecurity standards. They offer redundancy and high availability while helping facilities meet regulatory requirements, including data protection laws like GDPR and NIS2.   

  • Protect video footage with end-to-end encryption and user permissions  
  • Minimizes the risk of lateral movement during breach​es with network segmentation 
  • Stay ahead of evolving threats with regular software updates and security patches
