AMAG Technology Introduces Symmetry CONNECT

AMAG Technology, a provider of access control, video management and end-to-end security management solutions, announces the release of Symmetry CONNECT, a policy-based platform providing safety, security and risk management capabilities for organizations demanding a process and policy based approach to managing all their enterprise security functions. Symmetry CONNECT allows organizations to build sustainable policies and automate manual disjointed procedures reducing errors and minimizing risks. In addition, Symmetry CONNECT helps ensure compliance by meeting industry specific audit reporting requirements and by providing a platform that eliminates mistakes and delivers an end-to-end solution. Five modules provide an effective solution to help you operationalize your business.

“Symmetry CONNECT combines solutions for access control, video management, compliance and monitoring and offers a modular approach to meeting those challenges,” said AMAG Technology, President Matt Barnette.  “You don’t have to address all challenges at once. Maybe today you just need to address a legacy access control system, but next year you can begin addressing your security compliance and operational needs. Symmetry CONNECT helps you bring together disparate systems, disjointed processes and data on your timeline to meet your security needs.”

Symmetry CONNECT is an enterprise-wide software platform which helps large multi-site organizations to operate more effectively and security personnel to respond more efficiently. Symmetry CONNECT offers additional software modules for Identity Management, Visitor Management, Emergency Preparedness as well as Risk and Vulnerability Assessments that can be applied at any stage of a system’s development.

Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
