Onvif develops the first Customer Test Tool for S profiles, G and C

The first Customer Test Tool just introduced by Onvif allows you to verify whether customers meet the security specifications for S-profiles, G and C, available to both members of the organization and the Developer Forum.

With the aim of making it easier for its members to comply with interoperability in the security environment, the Customer Testing Tool you just introduced Onvif Allows you to test customers' hardware- and software-based systems, such as video and physical security information management (PSIM), Building Management, Etc. to find out if there is compliance with the mandatory specifications and requirements of S-profiles (for streaming and video setup); G (for search recording), &C (for door and access point control).

This new testing tool allows Onvif to verify that the customer has been tested with multiple devices and meets compliance specifications, until now, manufacturers had to verify that their customer offered these specifications with a minimum of three individual profile devices in order to obtain a Declaration of Conformity.

Hugo Brisson, Chair of the Onvif Testing Working Group, "The Onvif Customer Test Tool was created to respond to the community's demand for security to increase interoperability and accountability. This initial release of the Customer Testing Tool brings the organization one step closer to having a transparent and integrated process and achieving compliance.".

The specifications for each profile will be included in the second version of the Customer Test Tool, currently scheduled for the summer of 2015, and new service versions will be introduced every six months to expand the scope of testing and more features.

Created in 2008, the Onvif organization currently has more than 500 members around the world and more than 4.000 Compatible and continuously growing products.
