All solutions can be used from the DVA1622 NVR, that makes it easier for small businesses or offices to access powerful Artificial Intelligence analytics tools, such as facial recognition or people counting. In combination with Surveillance Station 9.0, the NVR devices of the DVA range also acquire the ability to recognize the license plates of moving vehicles.

Multi-business wireless connection

Srm 1.3 and the Wi-Fi router 6 Synology RT6600ax deliver faster network connectivity and expand management capabilities. The first comes with VLAN support through an intuitive interface that allows compartmentalization and separation of the network for potentially insecure devices such as IoT sensors.

The RT6600ax triband router is one of the first to support the expanded spectrum of 5,9 Ghz, providing more space and facilitating the uninterrupted operation of 160 Mhz. The port of 2,5 GbE ensures uplink support and higher speed connectivity.

Almost all RSM management capabilities come to mobile through a redesigned DS router application. Create new wireless networks, setting up parental control or web filtering or setting traffic control schemes is simpler and only requires a few clicks.

A secure cloud

Launched just a few months ago, C2 Backup, C2 Identity, C2 Password and C2 Transfer are autonomous services designed to easily and affordably solve specific challenges faced by IT teams.

C2 Backup simplifies backup of business information, even for those teams working remotely. Bare-metal backups, along with convenient file-level recovery via an intuitive portal, ensure fast and flexible protection of information.

C2 Identity replaces traditional directory services with a secure, low-latency, hybrid approach. C2 servers take care of the management, supported by SSO services and locally installed LDAP nodes for local servers and devices. Included Windows and macOS device management capabilities give administrators the tools they need to keep their computers secure.

C2 Password makes password management simple and accessible. The service is free for individual users.

C2 Transfer makes sharing sensitive files with external parties simple and secure. In addition to implementing identity validation, locally encrypts all files, ensuring that information never falls into the wrong hands, even if shared links are exposed.

Synology is constantly introducing new features to C2 services, maximizing convenience and scalability on demand without users needing to worry about maintenance.

Multiple data residency options (including a new data center in Taiwan, which has recently been added to existing ones in Frankfurt and Seattle) enable administrators to ensure the highest level of compliance with local data retention and protection laws. In 2022, Synology to Introduce C2 Object Storage Service for S3-Compatible Applications.
