Genetec Security Center (Canada) is the gold standard for enterprise unified security in Vietnam — VPBank, Techcombank, Tan Son Nhat Airport, and Ho Tram Casino all use it. The difference vs Milestone XProtect / Hikvision HikCentral: a truly unified single platform — not just VMS aggregating cameras, but also KSRV (Synergis), ALPR (AutoVu), intercom, and intrusion alarm in 1 UI.
The Mission Control module is the highlight — orchestrate incident workflow: e.g., "KSRV door X alarm → auto trigger nearby camera preset 1 → dispatch guard via Motorola radio → log audit + notify SOC". Cross-system, no need for custom integration per vendor.
Cyber hardening — TLS 1.3 default, FIDO2 MFA for operators, certificate-based device auth (each camera has its own cert). Cyber Center module monitors vulnerabilities in real-time. Critical for banks + critical infrastructure.
An Ninh Số is a Genetec Certified Channel Partner in Vietnam with 4 GCP (Genetec Certified Programmer). Deployed for GP6 overall management enterprise.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
- What is the important difference between Genetec and Milestone XProtect?
Genetec is a unified platform (VMS + KSRV + ALPR + intercom, all native on one platform). Milestone is a deep VMS with an open marketplace plugin for KSRV/ALPR (requires integration). Genetec is stronger in enterprise critical infrastructure (airports, banks). Milestone is stronger in video forensics + AI plugin ecosystem (BriefCam, Hafnia VLM). Henry needs to evaluate the majority use case.
- What is the Genetec license model, outright purchase or SaaS?
Hybrid: license per camera/door/lane purchased outright + Annual Maintenance Agreement (SMA) ~20% cost/year for upgrade + support. Or Stratocast cloud SaaS ~$15-30/camera/month. SMA is mandatory for the first year, optional thereafter but recommended for cyber updates.
- Is it compatible with existing Hikvision / Dahua cameras?
Yes. Genetec supports 5000+ camera models via ONVIF + native driver. Hikvision and Dahua have native drivers — full feature (PTZ, audio, smart events). Common migration pattern: keep existing cameras, upgrade VMS to Genetec, gradually replace cameras when end-of-life.
- Do I need a Genetec certified programmer?
Yes. Genetec Certified Programmer (GCP) issued by Genetec University. Initial configuration + Mission Control workflow + integration requires GCP. An Ninh Số has 4 GCPs in Vietnam — sufficient to serve enterprise projects with 500+ cameras.
