Avigilon, a leader in high-definition and megapixel video surveillance solutions, has announced that its high-definition video surveillance software solution, Avigilon Control Center, integrates with S2 Security’s S2 NetBox, a 100 percent browser-delivered security management system that offers integrated access control, alarm and temperature monitoring.

The integration of the S2 NetBox and Avigilon’s high-definition surveillance solutions provides end-users, from small, single site facilities to globally distributed organizations, with a single platform to unite access control and high-definition video surveillance.

“S2 Security and Avigilon share the philosophy of creating open products that support integration,” said John L. Moss, CEO, S2 Security. “Integrations such as this streamline security management for end users and create valuable new opportunities for our integrators.”
