Video Surveillance

See Every Threat. Act Before It Escalates.

Kastle's cloud-managed video surveillance doesn't just record — it detects, verifies, and responds. Every camera is backed by 24/7 Security Operations Center monitoring and AI-powered analytics that distinguish real threats from noise.

Business Outcomes

Surveillance That Prevents Incidents, Not Just Documents Them

AI-Powered Threat Detection

Kastle's analytics engine watches every frame — identifying loitering, perimeter breaches, tailgating, and after-hours intrusions in real time. Human SOC operators act on flagged events before they become incidents.

Video-Verified Alarm Response

When an alarm trips, a Kastle SOC operator pulls live video within seconds. Police dispatch happens only after visual confirmation — delivering 5x faster response times and eliminating the false-alarm calls that cause officers to deprioritize your property.

Cloud-Managed Evidence

Footage is encrypted and stored in the cloud with automatic retention policies. Export timestamped, chain-of-custody clips for law enforcement, HR, or legal in seconds — not hours. No DVR to fail. No footage to lose.

Your Cameras Are Only as Good as the People Watching Them

Most video systems generate footage that no one watches until after an incident. Kastle changes that equation. Our Security Operations Centers — staffed by trained security professionals, not offshore call centers — actively monitor your cameras 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. When something looks wrong, we act.

  • Dedicated SOC operators who learn your property layout and normal activity patterns
  • Video-verified dispatching — police respond to confirmed threats, not alarm noise
  • Proactive threat assessment during high-risk hours and special events
  • Real-time communication with your on-site team via two-way audio

AI Detection & Analytics

Intelligent Cameras That Know What to Look For — Kastle's AI analytics layer runs continuously on every video stream, detecting behavioral anomalies that human operators can't catch at scale. The result is precision alerting: SOC operators see real events, not a flood of false positives.

  • Loitering and perimeter intrusion detection — configurable per zone
  • Tailgating and anti-passback monitoring linked to access events
  • After-hours presence detection with automatic SOC alert escalation
  • License plate recognition for parking and vehicle access control

Unified Platform

Video Is Better When It's Connected to Everything Else

Kastle surveillance doesn't operate in a silo. Every camera integrates with access control, alarm management, and the building systems you already run — turning isolated footage into actionable security intelligence.

Access Control Integration

Every access event pulls the corresponding video clip automatically. Forced-door alarms, tailgating flags, and after-hours credential use show you what happened — not just that something happened.

Alarm Verification

SOC operators view live and recorded video before dispatching police. False alarm rates drop by 90% — and when officers do respond, they arrive knowing exactly what to expect.

Evidence Management

Clip, annotate, and export chain-of-custody video packages for law enforcement, HR investigations, and insurance claims. Metadata and audit trails included automatically.

AI Analytics Engine

Kastle's behavioral analytics layer runs on every camera feed — not just premium units. Loitering, perimeter breach, crowd density, and flow analytics available across your entire camera inventory.

Smart Building API

REST APIs connect surveillance data to PSIM platforms, property management systems, and business intelligence tools. Occupancy data from camera analytics informs HVAC and lighting schedules.

Before Kastle, our cameras were essentially an expensive after-the-fact documentation system. We'd pull footage after an incident and shake our heads. Now our SOC operators are stopping problems before tenants even notice them. In our first year, we reduced security incidents that required police response by 68% — and eliminated all but three false dispatches across the entire portfolio.
