Who this is for

For security and IT teams that already use Genetec Security Center and want safety analytics without replacing the VMS.

The buyer question

How should AI safety events appear inside the Genetec workflow?

Keep Genetec as the operator surface

For many sites, the best integration path is to keep operators in Security Center and route AI events into alarms, maps, bookmarks, and review workflows, the same screen they already use for every other alarm source. Ask the vendor to demonstrate an event landing as a named alarm, not a generic notification in a separate app.

Separate event severity

A person-down event, track trespass alert, and low-confidence occupancy signal should not share the same priority. Map event type and confidence into the operator workflow deliberately.

Validate in the control room

A successful integration is not just an event in a log. The right camera should surface, the clip should be reviewable, and the operator should understand what action is expected.

How to use this with DHI

Use this page as a pre-pilot checklist. Pick one zone, one event type, one alert owner, and one review cadence. If the current cameras cannot support the workflow, fix the camera plan before expanding the deployment.
