Integration of KSENIA Panels into Genetec Security Center


    In a context where infrastructure security is critical, organizations must rely on robust, scalable, and unified systems. That's why integrating Ksenia Security intrusion and automation systems into Genetec Security Center becomes a strategic asset.

    This integration merges the advanced lares 4.0 control panels from Ksenia Security for their modularity, IoT compatibility, and elegant design with Genetec's unified platform, enabling centralized management of intrusion and smart building devices.

    Main features of the integration:

    Real-time event monitoring: Intrusion events are instantly reported to Security Center.

    Partition control: Arm/disarm partitions directly from Genetec.

    Device supervision: View and manage detectors, keypads, and automation modules within Security Center.

    Event correlation: Link Ksenia alerts with video or access control events.

    Domotic integration: Control lights, blinds, and HVAC systems directly from Security Center.

    This provides operators with a unified and real-time view of the secured environment, enhances threat response automation, and ensures scalable architecture aligned with future needs.
