It was time for the security industry to realise it had to be more open as well. They were, after all, used to IT systems that interfaced. In short, it was no longer fair to deny end-users the ability to choose whatever camera they wanted and whatever DVR or CCTV software they wanted on their network.
It soon become clear in an industry that was raving about the endless opportunities for security on the network that manufactures would have to become a little less proprietary in their dealings with their customers. Over the last decade, the security industry has spent a lot of time talking up the benefits of IP-based surveillance systems, and end-users have been bombarded with literature and sales pitches on the subject. It’s all very well running your security across an IP network, but if your recording device won’t talk to your PTZ camera, you are not going to get very far. We talk to two of the biggest interface standards organisations in surveillance – ONVIF and PSIA.
