Macnica Announces Distribution Agreement for icetana's Next-Generation AI Video Analytics Across the Americas
Exclusive Demo at ISC West 2025 Showcases Advanced Anomaly Detection and Streamlined Monitoring in Action SOLANA BEACH, Calif., March 19, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macnica Americas today announced it will begin distributing icetana AI's enterprise self-learning video surveillance system throughout North, Central, and South America. This collaboration expands access to cutting-edge imaging and vision solutions for a broad range of customers—spanning business campuses, universities, shopping malls, hotels, government agencies, and security monitoring centers—enabling them to enhance security and streamline operations. "Macnica has chosen to distribute the icetana solution because we recognize that this technology will not only augment security but will reduce the amount of people needed to monitor camera footage," explained Sebastien Dignard, President at Macnica Americas. "With rising labor costs and evolving security needs, icetana is a unique solution that addresses both issues." Unlike static surveillance solutions, icetana's AI platform supports large-scale camera networks by learning the customer's environment within 24 hours of installation and immediately reporting anomalies in real time. With an intuitive user interface, icetana enables a single operator to monitor up to 500 cameras, alerting them only when footage is out of the ordinary, without relying on invasive technology or violating privacy. Over time, icetana evolves through continued processing of video data, showing fewer but more noteworthy events. This approach reduces the need to review thousands of hours of footage across multiple screens and enhances situational awareness for security teams. icetana AI's proprietary self-learning platform integrates seamlessly with leading VMS solutions—including Milestone and Genetec—and is compatible with most camera systems, making deployment straightforward across diverse surveillance environments. The platform also supports advanced products like License Plate and Facial Recognition. Soon, icetana will introduce a GPT-powered enhancement that allows users to quickly locate specific events by typing descriptive keywords—providing operators with even more robust capabilities. icetana will leverage Macnica's technological prowess, customer support and extensive network of integrator relationships to deliver a tailored, end-to-end solution. From initial consultation through ongoing technical assistance, organizations can expect an optimal security setup. "We are teamed up with Macnica not only because of their commitment to providing their customers with state-of-the-art solutions," stated Kevin Brown, Chief Executive Officer, icetana AI, "but also because they prioritize customer care from the initial sales process through installation and beyond, offering superior technical support every step of the way."

Nashville council should allow police access to private surveillance footage
Editor's note: Letters to the editor reflect the views of individual readers. Scroll to the bottom to see how you can add your voice, whether you agree or disagree. We welcome diverse viewpoints. Re: 'Nashville violent crime might be dropping, but many citizens don't feel safer,' by David Plazas, Feb. 26 (online) and March 2 (print). David Plazas published a very informative column. Mr. Plazas researched crime rate offenses in Nashville. In short his research supports that violent crime is down but property crime is up in Nashville. Offenses not reported – whether violent or property related – cannot be captured and analyzed. This column concerns how the Nashville Metro Council may vote in the near future for a second time on Fusus. FUSUS allows Metro Nashville Police Department to access cameras of private citizens to help apprehend criminals faster. Private citizens willingly offer MNPD to use their videos. Theses citizens are saying to the City that "I want to help and be part of the solution in making Nashville safe again.' The video feeds from private citizens should convince the doubters that no bias, profiling or politics were involved to capture feeds. There are some that believe that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will have access to the captured information. This has been confirmed a 100 different times, and the answer is no. There are many who want to put limitations and restrictions on the private citizen feeds. Will it be so watered down that it is useless? That is not what I want. I want a fair and non-biased tool to reduce crime rates. Opinion: Nashville must postpone surveillance program because there are too many concerns Keeps politics away and support the use of this technology. This is like adding more boots on the ground for MNPD. The Metro Council's next meeting is Tuesday night and my hope is that the Council has come to its senses and has started to listen to the every-day citizens. Maybe that will convince Mayor Freddie O'Connell to stop sitting on his hands and roll out the use of previously voted and approved License Plate readers . Private citizens are willing to help, listen to them! Should the Council vote no, we are left to defend for ourselves. To quote Mr. Plazas " Show citizens council is working to make them feel safer."
