For Government & Public Sector

AI video intelligence for government & public sector — on the CCTV you already have.

Sorveo connects to your existing cameras and adds a real-time intelligence layer — restricted-area and line-crossing alerts at critical facilities, watchlists and allowlists for secure zones, and governance built for accountability: custom roles, two-factor sign-in and a full audit trail, with on-premise data sovereignty. No camera replacement, no rip-and-replace.

The problems

Public safety is a mandate, not an option.

Critical assets, sensitive sites and public spaces demand constant vigilance and strict data control. Sorveo gives every camera attention while keeping footage under your governance.

Public buildings and secure zones

Ministries, courts, hospitals and civic buildings mix public areas with rooms only authorised staff should enter. Sorveo applies an allowlist to secure-zone cameras and restricted-area rules out of hours, so anyone not authorised is flagged as they appear.

Watchlist and person-of-interest alerts

Sorveo matches faces against your authorised watchlist and alerts the right team the moment a person of interest is detected across monitored sites.

Accountability and oversight

Public bodies must show who accessed what, who changed what, and how quickly alerts were answered. Sorveo keeps a full audit trail of every action and reports on alert response — acknowledgement rate and time-to-acknowledge by responder.

Data sovereignty and compliance

Public-sector footage often can't leave the country or the building. Sorveo deploys fully on-premise, keeping processing and data under your governance with full audit logging.

Cameras going dark

A camera offline at a sensitive site is an unacceptable gap. Sorveo monitors camera health continuously and flags signal loss, obstruction and tampering the same day.

In practice

What Sorveo does for you.

Infrastructure security

Restricted-area and line-crossing detection

Define restricted zones and boundary lines per camera. Anyone entering a no-go zone or crossing your perimeter line is flagged live and alerted to your control room, day or night. If a remote site loses its connection, events are still captured and replayed to the log when it reconnects. More on perimeter detection.

Watchlist

Person-of-interest alerts

Facial recognition matches faces against your authorised watchlists and alerts the right team, with a photo and location, the moment a person of interest appears across monitored sites. Each watchlist has its own alert level — Normal, Important or Critical — and each officer only receives the watchlists they are subscribed to.

Access control

Allowlists for secure zones

Anyone not on the authorised list for a secure zone raises a critical alert; authorised staff pass silently. The Exclusion Detection report splits entries into authorised and unauthorised, separates known-but-not-permitted people from unknown faces, and ranks the cameras with the most issues. More on access control.

Governance

Controlled, audit-ready access

Build custom roles that grant exactly the pages each team needs, require two-factor authentication, and keep a searchable audit trail of every action. Each organisation is isolated on its own subdomain, and vendor support is supervised and fully audited. Sorveo can also run fully on-premise.

Multi-site oversight

Camera health, hierarchy and SLA reporting

Organise every facility as Site → Building → Floor → Location, track each camera as online, offline or degraded with uptime history, and email scheduled reports — including an alert-response report showing acknowledgement rates and response times by responder.

On the roadmap

Crowd and occupancy analytics

People counting, occupancy and crowd-density analytics for public spaces and events are on our near-term roadmap. Today, Sorveo protects the secure side of public sites and events — restricted areas, perimeters, allowlists and watchlists.

Frequently asked

Questions we hear.

Can Sorveo work with our existing government CCTV cameras?

Yes. Sorveo adds AI to your existing IP cameras across sites and buildings through an on-site Sorveo edge appliance — cameras just need to expose a reachable video stream. There's no rip-and-replace, and each camera's AI profile is set and changed remotely.

Can Sorveo be deployed fully on-premise for data sovereignty?

Yes. Sorveo supports fully on-premise deployment, so all processing and footage stay within your network and jurisdiction, with encryption, role-based access and comprehensive audit logging.

How does Sorveo protect critical infrastructure?

Sorveo runs restricted-area, line-crossing and after-hours presence detection across power, water, transport and telecoms facilities and alerts your control room in seconds, including out of hours. Camera health is monitored continuously, and events at remote sites are stored and replayed if the connection drops.

Does Sorveo support watchlist and person-of-interest alerts?

Yes. Sorveo matches faces against your authorised watchlist and alerts the right team the moment a person of interest is detected across monitored sites, within your governance and compliance rules.

How does Sorveo support accountability and audit?

Every action in Sorveo is recorded in a searchable audit trail. Access is controlled through custom roles and two-factor authentication, each organisation is isolated, and vendor support is supervised and fully audited. Alert-response reports show acknowledgement rates and time-to-acknowledge by responder. More on security governance.

Can Sorveo help manage crowds at public events?

Not yet for crowd analytics. People counting, occupancy and crowd-density analytics are on Sorveo's near-term roadmap. Today Sorveo supports public events by alerting on watchlisted persons of interest, restricted-area entries and perimeter crossings, so responders know where to go.

Is Sorveo deployed in the public sector across Africa?

Yes. Sorveo supports government and public-sector organisations in Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, Rwanda and Egypt, with on-premise and hybrid deployment options for data-sovereignty needs.
