## BriefCam RESPOND — From Passive Surveillance to Active Prevention
BriefCam RESPOND is the ideal entry point module for organizations looking to begin their AI journey with existing camera infrastructure on a controlled budget. Instead of waiting for incidents to occur and then reviewing footage, RESPOND allows security teams to predefine scenarios requiring alerts and receive notifications the moment they happen.
Real-world use case example: A warehouse wants to be alerted when a truck not on the supplier list approaches the gate after 22:00. Instead of requiring dedicated AI cameras, RESPOND defines rules based on vehicle type + time + camera zone — and sends an alert to the guard's phone immediately.
Professional SOC integration: RESPOND connects to the central operations management system via an open API — operators see alerts directly on the SOC screen along with relevant video clips, without switching between multiple software. Official integration with Genetec Security Center and Milestone XProtect.
Expansion roadmap: Organizations starting with RESPOND can upgrade to BriefCam REVIEW to add forensic investigation capabilities, and BriefCam SYNOPSIS for Video Synopsis — all on the same platform, without redeploying from scratch. This is why BriefCam RESPOND is the starting point recommended by An Ninh Số for AI upgrade projects with phased budgets.
| Loại cảnh báo | Real-time alert khi đối tượng khớp rule xuất hiện trong vùng camera định nghĩa |
|---|---|
| Định nghĩa rule | Theo thuộc tính đối tượng (loại, màu, phụ kiện), vùng địa lý (zone), hướng di chuyển, thời gian |
| Watchlist | Danh sách đối tượng quan tâm theo thuộc tính — không yêu cầu facial recognition |
| Kênh thông báo | Email, SMS, push notification, webhook API, tích hợp màn hình SOC |
| Tích hợp SOC/PSIM | API mở tích hợp Genetec Security Center, Milestone XProtect, Lenel OnGuard và các PSIM phổ biến |
| Độ trễ cảnh báo | Thời gian thực (near real-time, phụ thuộc cấu hình server và băng thông mạng) |
| Quản lý sự kiện | Dashboard SOC với log sự kiện, xác nhận alert, phân công xử lý theo ca |
| Camera hỗ trợ | Mọi camera IP ONVIF, analog qua encoder — không yêu cầu AI chip trên camera |
| Triển khai | On-premise; tích hợp cùng nền tảng BriefCam SYNOPSIS và REVIEW |
| Bảo mật | Phân quyền người dùng theo vai trò, audit log đầy đủ, hỗ trợ LDAP/Active Directory |
- Warehouse and logistics: alert when an unidentified vehicle approaches the loading/unloading area outside working hours.
- Banks and ATMs: alert when detecting a person staying in the ATM area longer than normal or approaching from behind the machine.
- Schools and educational institutions: alert when strangers appear in student areas outside of school hours.
- Industrial park: perimeter monitoring and zone-based intrusion alert with camera, featuring person/vehicle classification.
- Shopping center: alert when detecting subjects in the watchlist (according to attribute description) appearing at the facility
Câu hỏi thường gặp
- Can BriefCam RESPOND replace traditional intrusion alarm systems?
RESPOND supplements, not replaces, traditional alarm systems. Traditional alarm systems handle physical sensors (PIR, door magnets), while RESPOND analyzes video to classify and confirm events — reducing false alarms and providing video clips with each alert for operators to verify before responding.
- How much time is needed to deploy BriefCam RESPOND on the existing camera infrastructure?
With existing IP camera infrastructure already having VMS (Milestone/Genetec/Hikvision iVMS), the deployment time for RESPOND is typically 1–2 weeks, including installation, rule configuration, and operator training. An Ninh Số provides comprehensive deployment services and post-deployment support.
- Can RESPOND send alerts to multiple people with different roles?
Yes. RESPOND supports role-based user authorization — for example, night shift security guards receive alerts about intrusions, managers receive daily summary reports, and IT security receives alerts about unauthorized access to the server room. Each group receives only the information relevant to their responsibilities.
- Cost of BriefCam RESPOND compared to buying new AI cameras like Avigilon or Verkada?
BriefCam RESPOND typically saves 60–80% compared to replacing all cameras with native AI solutions like Avigilon or Verkada, especially when the existing camera infrastructure is still functioning well. The main costs are software licenses and processing servers — with no expenses for camera replacement, rewiring, or full system reconfiguration.
