Solution Description
Onyx is a business data synchronization layer for HikCentral Professional (HCP), connecting third-party systems and synchronizing people, visitor and vehicle data with HCP for security operations. Data can also be managed directly in Onyx, while added capabilities such as visit documentation, personnel reporting, and operational insights extend HCP into daily business workflows.
The application of this solution should be subject to the applicable local laws and regulations.
User Benefits
- Connect existing business systems with HCP without duplicating data management. Onyx synchronizes people, visitor and vehicle data from third-party business systems with HCP, reducing manual data entry and keeping security information aligned with business operations.
- Manage people, visitors and vehicles without requiring users to operate HCP directly. Business and administrative teams can manage operational information through Onyx while HCP remains the underlying security platform, reducing complexity for non-security users.
- Extend security workflows with business-specific information, documentation and operational processes. Onyx complements HCP with additional capabilities such as visit documentation, supporting images and documents, personnel entry management and other information required by daily business workflows.
- Turn access and movement data into useful insights about daily site operations. Onyx provides operational reporting on personnel and visitor activity, including occupancy, activity levels, peak periods and historical information, helping organizations better understand how their facilities are being used.
- Keep business and security information synchronized through a centralized integration layer. Onyx acts as the synchronization layer between business applications and HCP, helping organizations maintain consistent information across systems while HCP handles the associated physical security operations.
Key Features
- Synchronizes people, visitor and vehicle data from third-party business systems with HCP.
- Manages people, visitors and vehicles directly in Onyx and synchronize them with HCP.
- Centralizes personnel, visitor and vehicle entry workflows connected to HCP security operations.
- Adds supporting images, documents and business information to visits and entry records.

Solution Architecture
Onyx acts as a synchronization and business operations layer between third-party systems and HCP. People, visitor, and vehicle data can originate from external systems or be managed directly in Onyx, then synchronized with HCP, which applies the information across the connected physical security infrastructure.
