What is Avigilon
Avigilon provides professional-grade video security solutions combining high-performance cameras, video management software and advanced video analytics. Its platform is designed to help security teams identify important activity quickly, search recorded footage more efficiently and improve situational awareness across a site.
By combining GuardPoint10 access control with Avigilon video, operators can view camera footage alongside access-control activity, helping them understand events more quickly and providing greater visual context when investigating security incidents.
Advanced video search and analytics helps operators focus on relevant activity, while scalable video management allows systems to be deployed across individual buildings or multiple locations.
How does the GuardPoint10 and Avigilon integration work?
An access-control event can tell an operator that a credential has been used, which door was involved and whether access was granted or denied. But video adds important visual context.
GuardPoint10’s CCTV integration is designed to link live and recorded video with access and alarm events, giving operators additional information when investigating activity around a secured door or area.
Live Video
- View Live security footage directly within GP10 without needing to switch between separate systems
Event Driven Video
Receive automatic video popup on access events and alarms for clearer visibility of key events
Video Search
Quickly search and review historical footage directly within GP10 allowing faster investigation
GuardPoint10’s wider CCTV functionality is designed to link live and recorded video with access and alarm events, supporting a more complete view of security activity.
GuardPoint10’s developing AI capabilities could further enhance the Avigilon integration by allowing operators to use natural-language requests to find relevant access events and associated video, making investigations faster and more intuitive.
The benefits of integrated access control and video
Combining GuardPoint10 with Avigilon reduces the separation between two of the most important technologies within a modern physical security system.
Enhanced Security
Combine access control and video for complete situational awareness
Operational Efficiency
Bring video, access events and alarms into a more integrated security workflow.
Improved Investigation
Find and verify events faster with synchronised video and access data
Scalable solution
An integrated solution suitable for individual buildings through to larger multi-site environments.
GuardPoint10's Security Centre is designed around this centralised approach, providing operators with real-time security information and the ability to work with doors, alarms, graphical maps, cameras and cardholder information from a common environment.
Designed for modern integrated security projects
The GuardPoint10 and Avigilon integration is particularly relevant to commercial buildings, education, healthcare, high-security environments and larger multi-site projects where both access control and video surveillance form important parts of the overall security strategy.
For security integrators, consultants, architects and end users, the integration also provides greater flexibility when specifying a security system. Rather than deploying access control and video as isolated technologies, the two systems can form part of a more connected security architecture.
This reflects the wider philosophy behind GuardPoint10. The platform has been developed with interoperability in mind and supports integration with third-party technologies through its API and other dedicated integration modules. External systems can exchange real-time information with GuardPoint10 and, where supported, interact with areas of the access-control system.
Bringing security information together
The integration between GuardPoint10 and Avigilon gives security operators access to more complete information when monitoring and investigating activity across a site.
By combining the intelligence provided by an access-control event with the visual context of video, organisations can create a more joined-up security operation, improve incident investigation and make better use of the technology already deployed throughout their buildings.
