International. The company specialized in cloud video surveillance and artificial intelligence (AI) is celebrating its 10th anniversary these days, when in July 2012 it introduced cloud video surveillance in the business world, starting with North America.
"Over the past decade, Eagle Eye Networks has begun a close collaboration with our customers," said Dean Drako, founder and CEO of Eagle Eye Networks. "I want to thank them for being the inspiration for many of the innovations we've brought to market. Our customers have also encouraged us to offer a global service, so we have expanded to 12 global data centers to offer cloud video surveillance around the world."
"We look forward to continuing to collaborate over the next decade as we further develop our AI and technology ecosystem to support the security and business intelligence needs of our valued customers," said Drako.
Named the fastest growing video surveillance company for three consecutive years (2019-2021) by Deloitte Technology Fast 500, Eagle Eye today has a global network of more than 2,500 channel partners, customers in more than 90 countries, offices in Amsterdam, Tokyo and Bangalore, and 12 data centers built specifically for video surveillance.
"In addition to offering the market an infrastructure built specifically for cloud video surveillance, Dean Drako and the Eagle Eye team brought an approach and commitment to cybersecurity best practices at a time when cybersecurity awareness was just beginning in the physical security sector," said Matt Barnette. CEO of PSA Security. "It helped move cybersecurity from an additional idea to a fundamental requirement for manufacturers, and as a result elevated the entire physical security market."
The company shared some innovations made in the last 10 years.
Eagle Eye Networks' innovations over the past ten years include:
* Eagle Eye Video API Platform: Eagle Eye's open API, which has been a major differentiator in a decade of growth, allows customers a complete choice as it integrates with an unlimited number of applications, analytics and third-party systems, such as point of sale, access control and other critical systems. Eagle Eye integrates with more than 10,000 camera makes and models, allowing customers to choose their camera manufacturer and use existing ones.
* Eagle Eye's flexible local/cloud storage: offers customers flexibility to adjust the part of video stored in the cloud and the part stored locally, ranging from 0 to 100%.
* Eagle Eye bandwidth management: has made it possible to provide cloud-based surveillance services in areas with reduced or limited Internet connectivity.
* Cyber-blocking of cameras: blocks the communication of cameras with the Internet, prevents them from being attacked and compromised, and does not allow Trojans that may have been implanted in the cameras to communicate with the Internet.
* EE Cloud Camera Specification: Allows manufacturers to connect cameras, DVRs, and encoders to the cloud using a secure, open-source camera-to-cloud connectivity SDK.
* Eagle Eye LPR (license plate recognition): the use of AI plus the cloud makes LPR possible in any security camera, with very high accuracy even in difficult conditions.
* Eagle Eye VSP (Vehicle Surveillance Package): Captures license plate and vehicle information received from distributed cameras and sends it to the cloud to deliver business intelligence that improves efficiency, effectiveness and security.
