AI-Powered Security, On-Premise or in the Cloud
Avigilon Unity and Alta together form one of the most comprehensive physical security platforms available today, developed by Motorola Solutions and combining the technologies of Avigilon, Ava Security, and Openpath. Unity is an on-premise video management solution built for enterprises and high-security environments — supporting up to 10,000 cameras and 4,000 doors per site, with all data stored locally for strict compliance and data sovereignty. Alta is Avigilon’s fully cloud-native counterpart, requiring no on-site servers and offering remote management from any device, making it ideal for multi-site businesses seeking flexibility and scalability. Both platforms are powered by AdaptAI — Avigilon’s edge-based analytics engine — delivering Appearance Search, Facial Recognition, License Plate Recognition, crowd detection, audio analytics, visible firearm detection, and the AI-driven Focus of Attention monitoring interface. Video is managed and compressed using HDSM SmartCodec technology to reduce bandwidth and storage demands without sacrificing image quality, while end-to-end encryption, signed firmware, and NDAA-compliant hardware ensure the platform meets government and enterprise cybersecurity standards. Whether deployed on-premise or in the cloud, both suites integrate natively with Avigilon’s access control portfolio, linking door events directly to video verification for a unified, single-platform security operation.
