Security software company Genetec has released Genetec Cloudlink 210, the industry’s first cloud-managed appliance to support multiple security workloads, including video management, access control, and intrusion detection.
As the latest addition to the Genetec Cloudlink family, this new device simplifies security infrastructure by consolidating critical functions into a single, scalable appliance. Designed for hybrid environments, Cloudlink 210 provides a cybersecure bridge between on-premises systems and the cloud, offering organisations a cost-effective and flexible path to modernising their physical security operations.
Unlike proprietary solutions, Cloudlink 210 is based on an open architecture, enabling existing camera and access control systems to connect to the cloud without requiring a complete overhaul. It offers a cost-effective and practical pathway to modernising physical security operations while ensuring interoperability between on-premises and SaaS environments in hybrid deployments.
“As organisations transition to modern security infrastructure, outdated or vulnerable devices can create critical cybersecurity gaps,” said Genetec Product Engineering VP Christian Morin. “Cloudlink 210 acts as both a bridge and a shield, easily connecting legacy systems to the cloud while enforcing robust protection against cyber threats. With this appliance, businesses can modernise with confidence, knowing their networks remain secure at every stage of the journey.”
The Cloudlink 210 is designed to adapt to the needs of growing organisations and can easily scale to accommodate additional workloads and devices. A compact edge device, it can be deployed and installed in many types of locations/enclosures and can be rack mounted if needed to scale up storage and performance with multiple units.
The new appliance also features an intuitive touchscreen interface that simplifies the deployment and management of connected devices. With quick access to critical functions, users can easily view device statuses, network settings, and appliance health, ensuring a straightforward management process from enrolment to maintenance, all without the need for an additional device or app.
As a cloud-managed appliance, the Cloudlink 210 automates firmware and software updates to ensure the latest innovations and security enhancements are always implemented. This helps reduce maintenance effort and enables efficient remote management, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
The multi-workload approach is also being extended across all other Genetec Cloudlink appliances.
The Genetec Cloudlink 210 will be available globally in May.
