OnSSI Partners with Seneca Hardware

OnSSI, a provider of open-architecture, intelligent IP-based video surveillance software, announces the partnership of Seneca 's xVault server optimized for use with Ocularis, OnSSI's flagship video surveillance software. xVault for Ocularis has been custom-configured to comply with the software's specific needs to ensure compatibility for a practical turnkey solution. Seneca pre-installs Ocularis software providing integrators immediate out-of-the-box functionality saving them valuable time and simplifying deployment.

All servers, workstations and storage products are assembled in an ISO 9001-certified production facility and are engineered to meet the necessary demands of video surveillance systems. Seneca’s xVault servers undergo thorough testing to ensure quality and compliance to the high standards for Ocularis.

“Hardware and software are two elements of a single solution in the eyes of video surveillance integrators and end-users,” said Gadi Piran, president and chief technology officer of OnSSI. “Seneca provides an excellent hardware option for customers of Ocularis, and we have worked closely with the company to ensure that the performance of the total integrated solution meets customers' high expectations and maintains the reputation of Ocularis in the market.”

Seneca coordinates with OnSSI to install a customer's chosen version of Ocularis and related software before shipment to the customer site. Taking software installation out of the hands of the integrator eliminates human error and delivers a system that is ready to operate on arrival.

“Our world-class digital security and surveillance engineering laboratory has allowed us to optimize OnSSI configurations to deliver performance that is superior to off-the-shelf solutions at competitive prices,” said Steve Maser, vice president OEM services at Seneca. “We are pleased to be a certified OnSSI partner and look forward to innovating solutions for the digital security marketplace.”

The Ocularis solution by OnSSI is an open-architecture, intelligent IP-based video surveillance platform that is easy to use and provides the functionality and scale to match for any system need. The latest version of Ocularis offers infinite scalability and enables users or integrators to choose among multiple feature sets to match any application.

  • The Future is Happening Outside the Cloud

    For years, the cloud has captivated the physical security industry. And for good reason. Remote access, elastic scalability and simplified maintenance reshaped how we think about deploying and managing systems. But as the number of cameras grows and resolutions push from HD to 4K and beyond, the cloud’s limits are becoming unavoidable. Bandwidth bottlenecks. Latency lags. Rising storage costs. These are not abstract concerns. Read Now

  • Unlocking Trustworthy AI: Building Transparency in Security Governance

    In situations where AI supports important security tasks like leading investigations and detecting threats and anomalies, transparency is essential. When an incident occurs, investigators must trace the logic behind each automated response to confirm its validity or spot errors. Demanding interpretable AI turns opaque “black boxes” into accountable partners that enhance, rather than compromise, organizational defense. Read Now

    Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. You may recognize these terms as the “5 Phases” of a grieving process, but they could easily describe the phases one goes through before adopting any new or emerging innovation or technology, especially in a highly risk-averse industry like security. However, the desire for convenience in all aspects of modern life is finally beginning to turn the tide from old school hardware as the go-to towards more user-friendly, yet still secure, door solutions.

  • A8V MIND

    A8V MIND

    Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area.
