SiVMS® the global solution for small, medium and large security projects.
SiVMS® as an open platform has already been installed globally by PKE in several thousand installations. From the small shop application with a few cameras to the airport application with thousands of cameras.
SiVMS® has been used as a single video management system with 4 cameras to the complete open integration platform for video surveillance, fire alarm, burglar alarm, access control, building management systems with thousands of cameras, door readers, smoke detectors and other sensors, all combined in one solution and interface.

SiVMS® Video Server Platform
Fundamentals
Concept, basic structure and structure of the SiVMS® Video Management System
Structured like a video matrix, the SiVMS® Video Management System comes as standard with 4 inputs and 25 outputs. The maximum configuration is 16384 video sources and 2000 monitors.
Inputs
Each of the inputs can be individually assigned an IP-based video source and set in the resolution, quality and frame rate. There are over +500 direct interfaces of different types available for more than +70 manufacturers. Depending on the product, functionalities such as pan tilt control (PTZ) and digital inputs and outputs are also supported. In addition, all ONVIF-specified video sources can be integrated via the ONVIF interface.
Each input is provided with specific functions, e.g. motion detection, sabotage detection, which can perform a number of sequential events, such as recording or live view connection. For the recording of the video signals, a highly available and crash-resistant image storage is available for each channel, which also offers individual swapping on freely adjustable hard disks or data servers.
Outputs
The outputs are organized as freely positionable camera windows to which the video signals can be manually assigned by the operator or automatically by events. Manual activation takes place by selecting a camera from the camera list or via an optional graphical user interface. The automatic connection can be made by different events such as contact inputs, motion detection of the video analysis or via an external system using the optional OPC interface.
Event Handling
The events are stored within a message list provided internally or on external database servers. Each message is linked to a secure video sequence and can play back directly when dialed.
Display
An optional enhancement based on the PVis control system is available for the display of site plans and as an automation interface. AutoCAD® DWG and DXF, as well as image import filters and symbol libraries, provide a feature-rich, easy-to-use interface common to management systems.
Automation
Automation can be used to integrate third-party systems such as alarm systems, contacts and building management systems into video management.
Backup Operation
Especially for use in high-availability video surveillance systems, the standard function of the SiVMS® Video Management Systems is automatic backup operation. For each server connection while a replacement source can be specified, is switched to the automatically and almost without interruption of the video stream by the client. In addition, video sources can also be connected to the workstations directly and in addition to the video servers in order to ensure monitoring even if the entire server infrastructure fails.

Migration of existing Systems
Migration of Crossbars
The digitalization of an existing analogue system is usually realized by the exchange of the entire analogue technology and the use of encoders for each camera channel. This method is cost-intensive in particular for large installations and involves a high effort.
The migration server offers a cost-effective alternative with digitalization of the outputs and full integration into the SiVMS® infrastructure. The scalable server takes over the connections over several levels and supports up to 2048 inputs and 64 simultaneous output streams.
Common Criteria Protection Profile
Common Criteria Protection Profile
Hardly any of the installed video surveillance systems in public and non-public areas meets even the requirements of data protection, although this is clearly regulated by law in most countries. The legislator provides the basis for assessing and testing the security of IT components with the so-called Common Criteria Profiles. For video surveillance, the BSI-PP-023 profile provides a defined framework with requirements that enable comprehensive and legally secure data protection.
The protection profile places high demands on the security and integrity of the recorded and to be exported data, determines logging and enables the subsequent deletion of video sequences for the protection of the personality rights. In addition, u.a. defined user profiles and the secure environment of the video system is part of the profile.
An optional extension to the SiVMS® Video Management System is the first to offer a 100% Common Criteria compliant and certifiable video surveillance system. What’s more, the advanced features of our video systems, such as four-eye login, encrypted video transmission, or public privacy feature provide additional security, especially for public areas.
Common Criteria compliance is ensured by the expansion of the CCTV system around the Control Center, a set of defined parameter settings and environmental compliance.
