As businesses across the Nordics move toward greater cloud adoption, video surveillance is often one of the first areas where change is both necessary and possible.

With the unique infrastructure needs of Nordic organisations and a strong tradition of early technology adoption, the region is well-positioned for the benefits that cloud video surveillance offers. Eagle Eye Networks, as one of the pioneers of cloud-based video security in the Nordics and globally, has been at the forefront of this transformation, helping businesses embrace a flexible, secure, and reliable surveillance solution.

The Eagle Eye Cloud VMS is built with openness at its core, ensuring compatibility with virtually any camera brand. This flexibility allows organisations to modernise their video surveillance systems without the need for a complete overhaul. Whether transitioning fully to the cloud or adopting a hybrid approach, businesses can retain control over their existing hardware while gaining the benefits of cloud-based storage and management. In the Nordics, where many organisations have made significant investments in local infrastructure, this approach offers a clear advantage.

For those not yet ready to transition fully to the cloud, hybrid solutions offer a gradual migration path. Local storage can be paired with cloud-based access, creating a secure and scalable system that doesn’t require an all-at-once migration. This hybrid flexibility is particularly useful for organisations that may have concerns about a full switch, whether for reasons of bandwidth, regulatory compliance, or internal IT constraints.

The security of video data is paramount, and Eagle Eye Networks addresses this by storing all data within secure, Europe-based cloud infrastructure. This supports compliance with GDPR and other local data protection regulations, ensuring that all video data is kept within the region and fully under the control of the organisation. Strong encryption, multi-factor authentication, and comprehensive audit logs provide an extra layer of protection, ensuring that data remains secure and access is fully traceable.

As more organisations embrace the cloud, the need for simplification and efficiency grows. Eagle Eye Networks has responded by reducing the complexity of deployments. Eagle Eye recently announced a new integration with Axis Communications; it enables Axis cameras to connect directly to the cloud without any additional on-site hardware. This eliminates the need for a bridge , simplifies installation, and reduces ongoing maintenance. The reseller and business customer benefit from a simple installation. Importantly, the integration allows the end user to take advantage of all of the features and benefits of a cloud-based system.

In the Nordics, many businesses are leading the way in sustainability, and cloud video surveillance can align with these values. By reducing the need for on-premise infrastructure and maintaining scalable, energy-efficient cloud storage, organisations can lower their environmental impact. Cloud systems also provide opportunities for enhanced data analytics and remote monitoring, all of which contribute to smarter, more sustainable operations.

The adaptability of the Eagle Eye system is another key advantage. Organisations across a variety of sectors—including logistics, retail, and the public sector—have adopted cloud video surveillance to meet specific industry challenges. Whether it's managing surveillance across multiple sites, ensuring real-time access to live footage, or maintaining tight security controls, the cloud-based model provides the flexibility needed to handle diverse needs and grow alongside the business.

Eagle Eye Networks continued innovation in cloud video surveillance is supported by more thana decade of experience and a commitment to openness and transparency. The company’s platform is designed to scale with businesses of all sizes, ensuring that customers are equipped with a reliable and secure video surveillance solution that can adapt as their needs evolve.

As more vendors introduce cloud offerings, Eagle Eye Networks remains a trusted provider in the Nordic market, where businesses have come to rely on the company’s expertise, flexibility, and commitment to security. The cloud is the future of video surveillance, and those who have already made the shift are reaping the benefits today.
