Milestone Systems releases updates for XProtect, BriefCam, and Arcules

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Milestone Systems announced updates across its complete security technology portfolio with releases for XProtect video management software, BriefCam AI-powered analytics, and Arcules cloud video security.

Milestone said the updates demonstrate its commitment to providing integrated security solutions that address the full spectrum of modern security challenges, from on-premises operations to cloud-based deployments and advanced analytics with security teams benefiting from improvements across all three platforms.

Access Control Visualization

Citing the struggle in switching between different interfaces to monitor video and access control systems. The new XProtect 2025 R2 addresses this challenge by bringing access control directly onto Smart Map. Operators can now see doors and access points, such as card readers, entry gates, turnstiles, and other controlled entry devices, on the same map as their cameras. Teams can acknowledge alarms and control doors directly from the map interface.

Practical Workflow Improvements

When creating image snapshots in investigations, operators can now include time stamps and camera information directly on the images. The Smart Client also combines previously separate HTML and image/text functions.

For development partners, XProtect 2025 R2 enhances the Milestone Integration Platform with geographic positioning for access control units and expanded video codec support for web applications. The Milestone AI Bridge 2.0.0 is now officially available for production.

Enhanced Analytics Portfolio

The latest updates from BriefCam focus on delivering more reliable performance and intuitive operation for security teams using video analytics. Key enhancements include enhanced stability, a new home research dashboard, improved visualization capabilities, streamlined workflows, and more.

Flexible Cloud Security Solutions

For organizations transitioning to cloud-based security, Milestone's Arcules platform has received substantial enhancements that address the growing demand for flexible, scalable video surveillance solutions.
