Genetec, a pioneer in the physical security industry and a leading provider of world-class unified IP security solutions, announced the availability of its new unified web client for Security Center. The unified web client is part of the Security Center Mobile 3.0 feature and allows customers to connect back to their platform to view video, control PTZ cameras, configure aspects of their access control and license plate recognition (LPR) systems, and run reports from the most web browsers.
Several key characteristics differentiate Genetec’s unified web client. First, it is truly a thin client so customers have nothing to download before they connect to the Genetec unified security platform, Security Center. Instead, users simply require a link to the Security Center mobile server hosting the web pages. This allows the new web client to be a one-of-a-kind platform-independent interface; users can access the web client from browsers running within Microsoft Windows, Apple iOS, Linux, RIM BlackBerry, and Android operating environments. Some of the more popular browsers that support the web client include Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Apple Safari, and Opera. The end result is a universal web-based client.
