Milestone Systems unveils updates across software systems

Milestone Systems has announced updates across its complete security technology portfolio with releases for XProtect video management software, BriefCam AI-powered analytics and Arcules cloud video security.

Each of these products are said to give security professionals more powerful tools to protect people and assets while streamlining operations.

According to Milestone Systems, the software updates demonstrate the company’s commitment to providing integrated security solutions that address the full spectrum of modern security challenges, from on-premises operations to cloud-based deployments and advanced analytics.

Access control visualisation

The company has articulated that security operations often struggle with switching between interfaces, monitor videos and access control systems.

The new XProtect 2025 R2 is said to address this challenge by bringing access control directly onto Smart Map.

Milestone Systems has said that operators can now see doors and access points, such as: Card readers, entry gates, turnstiles and other controlled entry devices, on the same map as their cameras, making it easier to monitor facility security at a glance.

The software update is said to be able to detect access-related events and display a door icon on the map automatically updating and allowing operators to quickly identify issues.

According to the company, teams can then acknowledge alarms and control doors directly from the map interface, saving valuable time during security incidents.

Workflow Improvements

When creating image snapshots in investigations, operators can now include time stamps and camera information directly on the images, which is said to improve traceability in reports.

The Smart Client also combines previously separate HTML and image/text functions, making it reportedly easier to build comprehensive security dashboards.

For development partners, XProtect 2025 R2 is said to enhance the Milestone Integration Platform with geographic positioning for access control units and expanded video codec support for web applications.

Milestone Systems has reported that its AI Bridge 2.0.0 is available for production, making it easier for organisations to integrate artificial intelligence with their security video.

Milestone Systems enhances analytics portfolio

The latest updates from BriefCam focus on delivering more reliable performance and intuitive operation for security teams using video analytics.

Key enhancements include: Enhanced stability, new home research dashboard, improved visualisation and streamlined workflows.

Flexible cloud security solutions

For organisations transitioning to cloud-based security, Milestone’s Arcules platform has received enhancements that address the growing demand for flexible, scalable video surveillance solutions.

The updated platform delivers: Improved enterprise scalability, enhanced user management, expanded analytics and better integration capabilities.

These improvements are said to enable organisations to deploy hybrid security architectures that seamlessly integrate cloud and on-premises components, providing the flexibility to adapt security strategies as needs evolve.
