Investigations without the guesswork
IQSIGHT and Genetec accelerate investigations while reducing total cost of ownership.
Best‑in‑class forensic search inside Genetec Security Center (SaaS) enables faster evidence discovery, while a direct‑to‑cloud architecture minimizes infrastructure without lock-in – delivering high performance without budget pressure.
In modern security operations, the bottleneck is rarely more video. It is finding the right moment, across the right cameras, fast enough to act and with enough traceability to stand up to audit or court. Cameras from IQSIGHT generate rich object and attribute metadata at the point of capture, while Genetec operationalizes it inside Security Center (SaaS) workflows. The result is a closed-loop investigative experience where detection and metadata directly drive search, reconstruction, and defensible outcomes.

Attribute & Similarity Search in Genetec Security Center (On‑Prem)
Find the right person or vehicle – across cameras, sites, and time.
IQSIGHT’s Attribute and Similarity Search plug‑in brings advanced forensic investigations directly into Genetec Security Center. Instead of manually reviewing footage, investigators search using people, vehicle, and object attributes, then expand findings using similarity search to uncover all related activity across multiple cameras.
This enables fast, explainable investigations in environments where accuracy, control, and evidentiary rigor matter most.
How to utilize Attribute & Similarity Search (examples):
- Public Safety and Smart City: track a person of interest’s movement across neighborhoods by searching for clothing and appearance attributes, then expanding via similarity across city cameras.
- Transportation: search for an individual reported missing inside an airport terminal and reconstruct their path across entrances, concourses, and exits.
- Critical Infrastructure: investigate who accessed a restricted area by filtering for personal attributes and reconstructing a full movement timeline.
Forensic Search in Genetec Security Center SaaS
Investigate faster at scale, without adding infrastructure. With Genetec Security Center SaaS, cameras from IQSIGHT send object and attribute metadata directly to the cloud, enabling forensic investigations without additional on‑site servers. Teams can search and reconstruct incidents using the same investigative logic as the on‑prem solution, while benefiting from a lower‑footprint, cloud‑ready architecture.
This approach is ideal for distributed, cost‑sensitive, or rapidly scaling environments.
Example use cases by vertical:
- Retail: identify repeat shoplifting patterns across stores by searching for similar individuals and objects over days or weeks.
- Smart City: Investigate recurring incidents across a city by searching for similar people or vehicles captured at different locations over time
- Transportation & Mobility: reconstruct vehicle movements around incidents using attributes including license plate, without maintaining local infrastructure at every site.
Designed to simplify investigations, reduce operational effort, and deliver defensible outcomes at scale:
Features
- Attribute & Similarity Search inside Genetec: Search for people, vehicles, and objects using attributes, then expand results through similarity search across cameras and time.
- Multi‑camera, cross‑site forensic investigations: One search spans multiple cameras and locations without manual video review.
- Evidence‑ready metadata and export: Attributes and results can be bookmarked and exported via CSV for reporting, compliance, or legal workflows.
- Direct‑to‑Cloud metadata for SC SaaS: Cameras from IQSIGHT send metadata straight to Genetec Security Center SaaS, reducing on‑prem infrastructure requirements.
- Video system without lock-in: Open solution provides freedom of choice and protects future flexibility across on‑prem, hybrid, and cloud deployments.
Benefits
- Faster investigations with less effort: Investigators find relevant evidence in minutes instead of hours or days.
- Lower TCO and simpler deployments: Reduced server footprint, fewer tools, and lower operational overhead improve ROI.
- Defensible and auditable outcomes: Structured intelligence, tracked actions, and exportable evidence support compliance and legal confidence.
