## BriefCam SYNOPSIS — Flagship Video Synopsis for SOC and Security Investigation
BriefCam SYNOPSIS is the flagship product in the BriefCam ecosystem, designed for organizations that need enterprise-level video investigation capabilities without replacing their entire existing camera infrastructure.
Core problem BriefCam SYNOPSIS solves: A bank has 200 ATM cameras, each recording 24/7 — when an incident occurs, investigators need to review 6–12 hours of footage from multiple cameras. With traditional methods, this takes days. BriefCam SYNOPSIS reduces it to just a few hours thanks to Video Synopsis — a technology that overlays all moving objects from different moments onto a single frame, allowing viewing of all activity in the camera without scrubbing through every second.
Integration advantage: SYNOPSIS operates as an AI layer on top of existing IP camera systems and VMS — Milestone, Genetec, Avigilon, Hikvision iVMS are all officially supported. This means projects that have invested in Hikvision or Dahua cameras can still enjoy AI investigation capabilities on par with Avigilon at a significantly lower cost.
Positioning comparison: Unlike Avigilon Appearance Search which requires native Avigilon cameras, BriefCam SYNOPSIS works with any standard ONVIF IP camera — this is a decisive advantage for legacy infrastructure upgrade projects in banking security solutions and smart city solutions.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
- BriefCam SYNOPSIS does not require replacing cameras or purchasing additional camera hardware.
No. SYNOPSIS operates as an AI overlay software on existing VMS. You only need a processing server and software license — Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Bosch cameras, or any standard ONVIF IP camera can be used immediately.
- How powerful does the server need to be to run Video Synopsis?
Hardware requirements depend on the number of camera channels and analysis frequency. An Ninh Số will provide specific server sizing after surveying the current infrastructure. Typically, a project with 100–200 channels requires a mid-range GPU server, or it may utilize the existing VMS server if resources are sufficient.
- BriefCam SYNOPSIS differs from the built-in search features in Milestone or Genetec in what ways?
Milestone and Genetec provide basic search by time and camera. BriefCam SYNOPSIS adds Video Synopsis (quickly view all activity) and AI Search-by-Attribute (search by clothing color, vehicle type, height) — these features are not available in standard VMS and are typically only found in expensive native AI cameras.
- Is video data uploaded to BriefCam's cloud?
Not mandatory. BriefCam SYNOPSIS supports fully on-premise deployment, suitable for the data security policies of banks and government agencies. Hybrid cloud options are available if the organization wants flexible expansion.
