Why CAPSS Certification Matters
CAPSS certification means that Synergy demonstrates:
• Secure-by-design system architecture
• Robust access control and authentication
• Protected network communication and integration
• Safeguarded video and evidential data integrity
• Embedded cyber governance and risk management
It confirms that cyber security is engineered into the platform, not added later.

Securing High-Risk Environments
For organisations operating in critical or high-risk environments, CAPSS certification strengthens confidence in the security, integrity and resilience of surveillance infrastructure, including:
- Critical infrastructure
- Energy and utilities
- Transport networks
- Public space security
- Industrial and hazardous sites
Benefits to Operators and Security Teams

Hardened architecture helps minimise vulnerabilities across connected environments.
Protection of Critical Surveillance Data
Ensures integrity, availability and trust in video security and surveillance operations.
Secure Integration Across Networks
Supports safe connection with third-party systems, enterprise infrastructure and remote access environments.
Increased Operational Resilience
Reduces the likelihood of disruption, downtime or compromise in mission-critical security operations.
Future-Ready Infrastructure
Designed for secure deployment across multi-site, scalable and evolving security ecosystems.
What does CAPSS certification mean for Synergy?
CAPSS certification confirms that Synergy meets recognised cyber security standards for advanced physical security and surveillance systems. It provides independent assurance that the platform is designed to operate securely in connected, high-risk environments.
Why is CAPSS important for surveillance and VMS platforms?
Modern security and surveillance platforms are networked, integrated and often mission-critical. CAPSS helps ensure that cyber risks such as unauthorised access, data compromise and system disruption are properly managed through secure-by-design controls.
Is CAPSS-approved Synergy tied to a single access control vendor or proprietary access control architecture?
No. Synergy is built with flexibility in mind. Where access control is part of the wider security architecture, we do, however, recommend selecting a CAPSS-approved access control solution to support a consistent, cyber-assured approach across the full security estate.
How does CAPSS certification benefit security operators?
Using a CAPSS certified platform like Synergy supports stronger cyber assurance, reduced operational risk, protection of critical video data, and improved confidence in compliance and procurement decisions.
Does CAPSS certification support critical infrastructure requirements?
Yes. CAPSS certification is particularly relevant for organisations operating in sectors such as energy, transport, utilities and other critical national infrastructure environments where cyber resilience is essential.
Is Synergy designed to integrate securely with other systems?
Synergy supports secure integration across enterprise networks and third-party security technologies, with structured access controls and cyber governance aligned with CAPSS requirements.
