One of the biggest problems of modern VMS and VA systems is the task of combining remote isolated security or business monitoring systems into a single federated architecture with the possibility of their unlimited cascading and scaling.

To solve these problems, ISS has a unique integrated solution—SecurOS Monitoring and Control Center (MCC)—for any command centers in smart and safe cities.

SecurOS MCC provides the global monitoring and management of the complete security infrastructure of all your local sites from a single command center. It is an excellent solution for customers with multiple geographically disparate sites or business facilities spread across a vast area.

SecurOS MCC allows for the federation of remote independent sites as if they were part of a single virtual system. This federation option allows for a more streamlined workflow and globalizes security operations to make security personnel more productive and better informed.

SecurOS MCC federation capability

The SecurOS MCC federation capability scales as required to tie together up to hundreds and thousands of globally disparate sites, and provides management of all SecurOS servers within the virtual network and visualization of all cameras and other devices which are connected to each individual SecurOS deployment.

It standardizes security procedures and automated alarms and actions across an organization’s complete security infrastructure.

The SecurOS MCC is ideal for installations with around-the-clock operation requirements. It also supports interoperability with professional failover data storage systems which provide continued access to live and uninterrupted video recordings.

MCC can be equipped with an integrated SecurOS VideoWall for operators demanding supreme situational awareness of any event.

Top level system built on SecurOS MCC can unite geographically separated independent security systems running SecurOS Xpress, SecurOS Professional, SecurOS Premium, or SecurOS Enterprise.

SecurOS MCC can combine different versions of SecurOS VMS from different generations. This allows large systems to be deployed over time without having to update the entire SecurOS system to the latest version.

The flexible SecurOS architecture allows the creation of a hierarchical structure across several monitoring and control centers. One MCC can be top-level to other MCCs or the responsibilities can be divided among several MCCs in accordance with customer needs.

SecurOS MCC aggregates geographically diverse sites into a centralized and integrated command and control infrastructure. It designed for large-scale and high-security installations: all your security systems based on SecurOS VMS products are under centralized control. The central management stations can receive, display, record video and manage events as well as all video analytics modules and externally integrated systems.
