Cozaint Launches MARCIA Integration to Extend Milestone XProtect Video Retention

What Happened

Cozaint Corporation has released its MARCIA platform for Milestone XProtect video management environments. The system allows users to move recorded video to long-term LTO storage automatically.

The process runs in the background, copying files minutes after the initial recording. This approach bypasses the capacity limits of standard primary disk storage without disrupting daily security operations.

Users retain full access to their existing XProtect workflows for live monitoring and incident investigation. The integration focuses on lowering the cost of maintaining archives for extended periods.

The Core Points

Enables long-term video retention beyond primary storage limits
Uses LTO tape technology to minimize storage costs
Operates via background replication to ensure zero downtime
Maintains compatibility with existing Milestone XProtect workflows
Facilitates data preservation for future AI and analytical use

Context in 60 Seconds

Modern surveillance demands are shifting as organizations increase camera counts and higher frame rates, leading to massive data storage requirements. Historically, keeping video for long periods was expensive and limited by disk capacity, forcing companies to overwrite data after only a few months.

This trend is accelerating as legal, compliance, and AI-driven analytical needs require access to historical footage. By leveraging LTO tape technology, businesses can now maintain years of visual evidence at a lower cost, ensuring data remains available for future pattern discovery or forensic review.

Bottom Line

The MARCIA integration provides a cost-effective method for Milestone XProtect users to archive video indefinitely without altering their current security workflow.
