ASUSTOR Releases Surveillance Center 2.5 Beta

Taipei, Taiwan, May 4^th, 2016 – ASUSTOR Inc., a leading innovator and provider of network storage solutions, has announced the release of the Surveillance Center 2.5 beta version. The Surveillance Center 2.5 Beta optimizes users’ Windows environment operation experience by allowing them to access the App interface from Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer Web browsers. Furthermore, ASUSTOR’s secure HTTPS encrypted connections have been also added to the video recording playback function, comprehensively protecting user privacy and ensuring safety. Surveillance Center’s local display function has also been enhanced. In addition to the real-time monitoring of surveillance feeds, users will now be able playback recording files and hear live audio.
