Increased Cybersecurity. QORTEX DTC 2.2 adds authentication and encryption to the QORTEX Server to prevent unauthorized access to QORTEX data.

Time-Based PTZ Rules and PTZ Time Switching. QORTEX DTC 2.2 now allows users to specify a time period a rule is on for (i.e., during business hours, after business hours, etc.). PTZ time switching allows a PTZ camera to time switch between multiple objects when a tracking rule is triggered.

Usability Settings. QORTEX DTC 2.2 includes a set of new features designed to make it easier for users to fine-tune parameters to their unique applications. The new release features a new Basic Settings tab that includes the most common parameters with user-friendly definitions to aid parameter selection.

Glass & Window Reflection. The 2.2 version improve detection accuracy by removing false objects which result from glass and window reflections.

Long-standing customer QuantumLABS spoke to the added value of the new features. “QORTEX DTC has been invaluable in delivering insights to our security customers over the years,” said Mark O’Reilly, Head of Innovation at QuantumLABS, “Now, the enhanced cybersecurity and addition of user logs provide another layer of protection for our customer base.
