ITVDesk for Critical Infrastructure Monitoring
Critical infrastructure environments rely on continuous monitoring of systems that control energy, water, transportation, and industrial processes. While surveillance systems monitor physical assets, operational control happens inside digital systems and operator workstations.
ITVDesk enables full visibility into these environments by integrating control systems and workstation activity directly into existing video surveillance platforms.
Operational Reality
Critical infrastructure systems are operated through SCADA platforms, industrial control systems (ICS), and centralized control rooms. Operators manage complex processes in real time, where even minor errors or delays can lead to significant operational or safety risks.
Security in these environments requires visibility into both physical infrastructure and the digital systems used to control it.
Most surveillance systems provide only camera-based monitoring, leaving control interfaces, operator actions, and system interactions outside the visibility scope.
Key Challenges
- No monitoring of SCADA and control system interfaces
- Lack of correlation between system actions and physical events
- Limited audit capability for operator actions
- High dependency on operator awareness and manual monitoring
- Difficulty managing distributed infrastructure environments
Critical infrastructure environments demand continuous uptime and rapid incident response, making visibility and monitoring essential for operational security.
ITVDesk Approach
ITVDesk extends surveillance systems by converting control system interfaces and operator workstations into ONVIF-compatible video streams, enabling full integration into existing monitoring platforms.
- Stream SCADA and control system screens into VMS/NVR systems
- Record operator actions and system interactions
- Integrate seamlessly with existing surveillance infrastructure
- Enable centralized monitoring of multiple facilities
- Provide unified visibility of physical and digital operations
Typical Use Cases
