Ensuring end-to-end protection of media integrity
In applications and installations where video, audio, and metadata play a critical role as evidence material, it is paramount that the media is transmitted, stored and in general handled in a secure way from the time it is captured by the camera to the time it is used as evidence, for example in a court of law.
Milestone XProtect® Corporate and XProtect Expert (hereafter jointly referred to as ‘XProtect VMS’), and the XProtect Smart Client provide a series of security functionalities that enable users to maintain full end-to-end security and integrity of streamed and recorded media data – for example:
Encrypted media streams from cameras via VMS servers to VMS clients
Encrypted media database on recording servers and for XProtect format exports
Digital signing and verification of media databases
Secure user authentication and detailed access permissions
Centralized control of allowed export formats and features, for example functionality to prevent re-exporting media databases that have already been exported
