Unlike conventional physical security information management (PSIM) systems, the Kterio solution, Xena BI, enables IoT device level analysis, management, reporting and control on a single agnostic platform. The cloud-based solution accommodates a virtually unlimited number of analog and IoT physical security and building management devices across the enterprise to accommodate applications at any scale.

“Sielox has been marketing layered PACS and emergency notification systems for over 20 years, and we have never seen an integration solution as versatile and powerful as the Kterio building operating system,” said Karen Evans, President, Sielox. “The Kterio solution enables virtually any and every analog and/or IoT device to be seamlessly integrated and fully controlled at the device level, without the need for any custom drivers. This is a true gamechanger for large organizations that are looking for more efficient and effective ways to manage, control and automate systems.”

The Kterio operating system, Xena BI, is built on the premise of creating a true digital twin of an organisations’ critical infrastructure, which is essentially a digital representation of all the physical products, systems, and processes across the enterprise to be integrated. The Xena BI identifies all connected analogue and IoT devices and stores granular device data to allow any number of user interfaces to analyse and access every device. This forms the digital twin of an organisation’s physical security and building management devices and systems, enabling control and management of any/every connected device.

Structured as a Software-as-Service (SaaS), the Kterio operating system is a cloud solution that removes layers of disparate system management software and service contracts.

“The Kterio operating system, Xena BI, makes every physical and building management environment more efficient, sustainable and future proofed,” said Mark Glynn, President, Kterio. “Our partnership with Sielox provides us the opportunity to partner with a recognised leader in layered security solutions who understands the challenges and nuances of integrating devices and systems on the enterprise level. Together, we will change conventional thinking and implementation of enterprise level physical security and building management technologies.”
