New VSaaS solution offers server-less setup, AI detection, and centralized multi-site management with enterprise-grade security.
Synology has unveiled C2 Surveillance, a next-generation Video Surveillance as a Service (VSaaS) solution that reimagines cloud monitoring for distributed enterprises. Announced at the company’s headquarters in Taiwan, the offering eliminates traditional infrastructure burdens by providing a server-less, license-free, and rapidly deployable solution designed for multi-site scalability.
Built with a continuity-first architecture, C2 Surveillance ensures uninterrupted recording—even during network outages—by storing footage locally on microSD cards, with optional backup to the C2 Cloud. Its failover offline mode allows for local monitoring even when connectivity is lost, ensuring business continuity and security integrity.
“With C2 Surveillance, businesses can finally scale surveillance across multiple sites—without scaling complexity.”

“With C2 Surveillance, businesses can finally scale surveillance across multiple sites—without scaling complexity,” said Josh Lin, Director of Synology’s Surveillance Group. “We’ve built a solution that combines ease of use with enterprise-level capability, delivering a modern experience that’s flexible, secure, and designed for the future.”
Security remains central to the platform. C2 Surveillance incorporates AES-128 encryption, multi-factor authentication, and role-based access control, while meeting key global compliance standards including ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, and NDAA.
Administrators can deploy and manage cameras in minutes—even via mobile—without specialized training. Integrated AI-powered detection and seamless Windows Active Directory integration streamline identity and access management across distributed teams.
To address connectivity challenges, the platform offers a low bandwidth mode that reduces usage by up to 50% with minimal impact on video quality—ideal for constrained environments.
C2 Surveillance will be available later in 2025.
