The Internet of Things (IoT) revolution is here. Never before have so many devices been connected and accessible to users via the Internet and this is just the beginning.

IoT automation and control capabilities offer great benefits to the security surveillance industry, including remote positioning of cameras and viewing of live feeds and recorded footage.

Axis Communications and Buffalo Americas teamed up to bring IoT optimization to small business and home surveillance systems with their Digital Security Surveillance (DSS) solution.

Powered by the Intel® Atom™ processor, DSS is an affordable, state-of-the-art bundle intended to simplify the installation and configuration of a network surveillance system.

Featuring Axis Communications network cameras, Buffalo NAS storage, video management software, mobile viewing options and more, DSS provides a turnkey surveillance system for customers.
