Zilk Physical Security Platform
One console for every camera, door, and sensor.
A unified physical-security software platform that brings video management, access control, and AI analytics into a single command console. ONVIF-based and NDAA-compliant, it onboards mixed-brand cameras and readers over open standards, correlates events across every subsystem, and gives your SOC one operating picture instead of a wall of disconnected point apps.

01
Unified command console
Live video, doors, alarms, and analytics events on one map-driven screen, replacing separate VMS, access, and analytics apps.
02
Open-standard integration
Onboards mixed-brand cameras and readers over ONVIF, RTSP, and OSDP — no single-vendor lock-in.
03
Built-in AI analytics
ANPR/LPR, intrusion, loitering, people counting, PPE, and watchlist detection run natively with policy-driven escalation.

Capabilities
What Zilk Physical Security Platform does
Unified command console
A single map- and floorplan-driven view of live and recorded video, door states, alarms, and analytics events across every connected site.
Open-standard VMS
Records and streams mixed-brand IP cameras over ONVIF Profile S/G/T and RTSP with H.264/H.265 smart-codec support, PTZ control, and failover recording.
Integrated access control
Manages doors, controllers, and credentials over OSDP Secure Channel with card, mobile, and biometric support, anti-passback, and interlocks.
Native AI analytics
ANPR/LPR, line-crossing and loitering, people counting, PPE detection, and watchlist face matching run as built-in event sources, not bolt-on servers.
Cross-system event correlation
Ties an access-denied swipe, an intrusion alarm, and the nearest camera into one incident, cutting operator noise and speeding response.
Incident workflow automation
Standard operating procedures auto-trigger guided response steps, escalations, and fully audit-logged operator actions on defined alarm conditions.
Identity and building-system integration
Syncs access rights from HR and directory systems and interfaces with fire, intrusion, and building management systems through open APIs.
Compliance and privacy controls
NDAA device flagging, configurable retention and purge, video masking, and role-based access support GDPR and data-protection obligations.
Use cases
Where teams put Zilk Physical Security Platform to work
- 01
A multi-site enterprise consolidates separate VMS, access-control, and analytics consoles into one command screen while keeping all footage and credentials on its own infrastructure.
- 02
A logistics operator automates gate entry with ANPR, ties each plate read to the nearest camera and access group, and logs every vehicle movement for audit.
- 03
A critical-infrastructure SOC correlates perimeter intrusion alarms with thermal and PTZ cameras so operators verify and respond to real events in seconds.
- 04
A facilities team runs an NDAA audit across thousands of installed devices, flags prohibited hardware, and tracks a phased, compliant replacement programme.
- 05
A corporate campus provisions and revokes employee badges automatically from its directory so building access follows joiner-mover-leaver status in real time.

Why Zilk
Why Zilk Physical Security Platform
Three products in one — VMS, access control, and AI analytics share a single console and data model instead of three separate systems stitched together at the SOC.
Open-standard and vendor-neutral — ONVIF, RTSP, and OSDP onboarding means no camera or reader lock-in and no forced hardware refresh.
NDAA-compliant and privacy-aware by design, with built-in device flagging, retention enforcement, and masking rather than after-the-fact bolt-ons.
On-premises or private-cloud deployment keeps footage, credentials, and biometric data inside your own infrastructure, unlike cloud-only surveillance SaaS.
Part of our Physical Security & Surveillance practice
Zilk Physical Security Platform is built and supported by the same engineers who deliver our 35 Physical Security & Surveillance services — design, deployment, and day-2 operations included.
