Genetec Omnicast & KiwiVision — Abu Dhabi

No. Emirtech does not hold Genetec channel-partner or dealer status. Emirtech Technology is a security and IT integrator (ADMCC-approved for security systems). Genetec hardware, software licences and Genetec Advantage maintenance contracts are procured through the regional Genetec-certified channel. Emirtech delivers the integrator scope under its own itemised written quotation — design, cabling, server and archiver build, camera integration, KiwiVision configuration, federated-site setup, ADMCC submission and ongoing maintenance — and coordinates Genetec product-level support through the certified channel. Emirtech holds no manufacturer dealership.

Privacy Protector dynamically masks identifiable subjects — typically people — in live and recorded video, so an operator reviewing footage sees pixelated or blurred figures rather than identifiable faces and bodies. The original unmasked stream is retained in a separately encrypted archive that only authorised investigators can access under a key-custody policy. This supports PDPL-aligned operations where routine monitoring should not expose identifiable data unnecessarily, while still preserving evidential video for incident investigation under controlled access.

KiwiVision runs server-side within Security Center. That means GPU sizing on the analytics host, sufficient network bandwidth from cameras to server, and archive storage that accommodates classifier metadata alongside video are all live design decisions. The benefit is that analytics are agnostic to camera brand — any ONVIF Profile S / T or natively supported camera can be processed — and rules can be authored and reconfigured centrally without firmware constraints at the edge.

The module captures a reference image for each camera and continuously compares the live feed against that reference. When the feed deviates beyond a tunable threshold — because the camera was obscured, sprayed, defocused, repositioned or sabotaged — Security Center raises an alarm. Reference images must be retaken after any legitimate maintenance such as lens cleaning or focal-length adjustment; we include a recapture schedule in the maintenance documentation.

Yes. Federation is one of Security Center's principal strengths. A client operating sites in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and other emirates can connect each location's Security Center directory to a central federating server, with role-based access so headquarters operators see a unified map and event stream while local teams retain control of their own configuration. Bandwidth, certificate management and identity-provider integration are designed up-front; we document the federation topology and the failover behaviour for each site.
