VP360 Argus Solution Meets Body-Worn Camera Mandates With More Control at Lower Cost

TEMPE, Ariz. - Feb. 16, 2016 - PRLog -- A consortium of technology industry leaders led by VP360 and

Lightstream and including technology providers Zadara™ Storage and SoleraTec today announced

the availability of the VP360 Argus Body-Worn Camera Solution As A Service for law enforcement

agencies. The VP360 Argus BCS solution leverages the Zadara Storage enterprise-class storage-as-aservice

(STaaS) solution and SoleraTec’s Phoenix Digital Evidence Management (DEM) application

to store and manage video evidence from body-worn cameras. It is the only body worn camera

solution with the option of locating the solution on-premise, and within the agency’s data center, to

provide the highest levels of security – yet as an OpEx-only, as-a-service offering.

Many local law enforcement agencies with body worn camera initiatives are surprised at how

quickly it becomes cost-prohibitive to store video evidence to meet state and federal retention

policy requirements. In addition, multi-tenant cloud solutions that share resources with other

applications create security and chain of custody issues.

The VP360 Argus Body Camera Solution provides the unique option to reside either on-premise,

within the agency’s own four walls, or in a remote cloud data center — whichever the agency

prefers. It is CJIS compliant, inYinitely scalable, readily conYigured, and delivers industry-leading

reliability with a 99.999% uptime guarantee. Because the solution is provided as a service, the

VP360 Argus eliminates typical video storage equipment maintenance and troubleshooting hassles.

Proper system integration is essential. Therefore, Lightstream’s specialized Yield technicians deploy

the VP360 Argus solution leveraging their longstanding expertise in integrating complex systems

while supporting core business functions. For those agencies preferring a cloud-based solution,

Lightstream can access hundreds of diverse data centers and colocation facilities around the world

to meet customer requirements for performance, scalability and cost.

The VP360 Argus solution includes the body camera, backend hardware, digital video management

application, and storage of all recorded video data. It incorporates a custom-developed solution

using Zadara Storage technology for the storing, retrieving, sharing and archiving of captured video

in an on-premise, pay-as-you-go business model.

The VP360 Argus Body Camera Solution also integrates SoleraTec’s Digital Evidence Management

solution, Phoenix DEM, for evidentiary video and Yile management. With its native ability to use

cost-effective, multi-tiered storage conYigurations, the Argus solution dramatically reduces the

overall cost of maintaining larger amounts of digital evidence over longer periods of time, while

giving the user a quick and easy way to search for and review required video evidence.

“The cost of storing digital evidence can quickly skyrocket if law enforcement agencies don’t choose

a solution that’s optimized for their needs,” said Jeff White, CEO of VP360. “We are excited about the

partnerships we’ve put in place for the VP360 Argus body worn camera solution, and our growing

our lineup of solutions for our clients over the past several months.”

“Agencies need the agility and economics of the cloud, but often feel more comfortable knowing

there’s the option to fully keep their digital evidence storage behind their Yirewall,” said Nelson

Nahum, CEO of Zadara Storage. “With the VP360 Argus body worn camera solution, they truly have

the best of all worlds.”
