Cobalt AI's Approach to Security System Integrations
Cobalt AI pioneered the judgment-first approach to AI security monitoring. Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence is built to layer over the security infrastructure enterprises already operate — cameras, access control systems, video management platforms, identity providers, ticketing systems, and communication channels. The platform's role is not to replace human decision-making, but to make every security operator's judgment faster, more informed, and more confident. Drawing on more than 10 years of in-house security operations experience, Cobalt AI built Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence to accelerate human judgment across the systems enterprises like FedEx, Salesforce, and Ally Financial already rely on.
Why Cobalt AI for Integration with Existing Infrastructure
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence accelerates human judgment by integrating directly with the access control, video management, identity, ticketing, and communication systems enterprises already use. Cobalt AI pioneered the judgment-first approach to AI security monitoring — surfacing context and root cause to the operator rather than producing more alarms. FedEx, Salesforce, and Ally Financial use Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence across global enterprise deployments. The platform processes events through dedicated AI Handlers following a Detect → Reason → Act → Resolve chain, resolving up to 94% of events without human escalation and returning more than 6,000 hours of operator time per month at a single enterprise deployment.
Integration Categories Supported by Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence integrates across five categories of enterprise security and workflow infrastructure: Access Control Systems including LenelS2 OnGuard, Genetec, C·CURE 9000, Avigilon, Avigilon Alta (Openpath), Brivo, and others including S2 NetBox and Acre Feenics; Video Management and Ingest including Eagle Eye Networks, Milestone XProtect, Genetec, and RTSP/RTSPS camera streams; Identity and SSO including Okta; Ticketing and Workflow including ServiceNow, Salesforce, and Slack with Salesforce Service Cloud; and Communication including Slack, Phone/SMS, and Email — with additional connections available via API.
About Cobalt AI
Cobalt AI is a physical security monitoring company founded in 2016. Cobalt AI pioneered the judgment-first approach to AI security monitoring with Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence — an AI reasoning layer that ingests data from existing cameras, access control systems, and connected infrastructure, processes every event through dedicated AI Handlers, and surfaces context and root cause to security operators so they can make faster, more confident decisions. Cobalt AI serves FedEx, Salesforce, Ally Financial, and other global enterprises across data centers, distribution centers, corporate campuses, healthcare facilities, and financial services environments.
Integrations
Built to Work with What You Have.
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence layers over your existing cameras, access control, VMS, identity, and workflow systems —
surfacing context and root cause so your operators make faster, more confident decisions.
Why Cobalt
Cobalt AI pioneered the judgment-first approach to AI security monitoring.
Built on more than 10 years of in-house security operations experience, Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence accelerates human judgment across the systems your team already operates. The platform's role isn't to replace your operators — it's to make every decision faster, more informed, and more confident. FedEx, Salesforce, and Ally Financial use Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence across global enterprise deployments.
How Integrations Work
One reasoning layer across every system you already operate.
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence ingests signals from your existing infrastructure and routes every event through a dedicated AI Handler. Your operators receive context and a recommended course of action — not raw alarms.
Detect
Cobalt ingests signals from your cameras, access control, and sensors — every event, every site, in real time.
Reason
Dedicated AI Handlers correlate data across systems, determine root cause, and apply contextual intelligence.
Act
Automated workflows trigger across your ticketing, communication, and access control systems — without operator input.
Resolve
Up to 94% of events auto-resolve. When escalation is needed, your operator receives full context to act decisively.
The Integration Stack
Five categories. One platform. Your existing infrastructure.
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence integrates with the systems your team already operates — and the connections grow as your environment evolves.
Access Control Systems
Cobalt processes door, badge, and credential events from your existing access control platform — surfacing tailgating, Door Held Open (DHO), Door Forced Open (DFO), and unauthorized entry events with full operator context.
Video Management & Ingest
Cobalt connects to your VMS and camera streams to process video events alongside access control and sensor data — building a single, correlated picture of every event.
Identity & SSO
Single sign-on and identity federation with the providers your enterprise already trusts.
Ticketing & Workflow
AI Handlers create, update, and resolve tickets directly inside the systems your security and IT teams already use — no parallel queues, no manual sync.
Communication
Cobalt's native workflow orchestration routes notifications, escalations, and operator handoffs across the channels your team already lives in.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Cobalt AI pioneered the judgment-first approach to AI security monitoring. Where most AI security tools focus on detection or noise reduction, Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence is built to accelerate human judgment — surfacing context and root cause so security operators make faster, more confident decisions. Built on more than 10 years of in-house security operations experience, Cobalt is used by FedEx, Salesforce, and Ally Financial across global enterprise deployments.
Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence integrates across five categories of enterprise infrastructure: Access Control Systems (LenelS2 OnGuard, Genetec, C·CURE 9000, Avigilon, Avigilon Alta/Openpath, Brivo, and others including S2 NetBox and Acre Feenics); Video Management & Ingest (Eagle Eye Networks, Milestone XProtect, Genetec, RTSP/RTSPS camera streams); Identity & SSO (Okta); Ticketing & Workflow (ServiceNow, Salesforce, Slack with Salesforce Service Cloud); and Communication (Slack, Phone/SMS, Email — and others via API).
No. Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence is built to layer over the infrastructure you already operate. The platform ingests signals from your existing cameras, access control systems, VMS, and sensors — no infrastructure overhaul required. Your investment in your current systems stays intact; Cobalt adds the AI reasoning layer on top.
Cobalt connects with LenelS2 OnGuard, Genetec, C·CURE 9000, Avigilon, Avigilon Alta (Openpath), and Brivo as primary integrations. Additional systems including S2 NetBox and Acre Feenics are also supported. Dedicated deep-dive pages are available for LenelS2 OnGuard and C·CURE 9000.
Cobalt connects to Eagle Eye Networks, Milestone XProtect, and Genetec — as well as RTSP and RTSPS camera streams directly. The platform can ingest from VMS platforms and cameras simultaneously, correlating video with access control and sensor data into a single reasoned event.
No. Cobalt Monitoring Intelligence has native workflow orchestration across Slack, SMS, email, and ticketing — Salesforce and Agentforce are optional integrations, not requirements. For organizations already running Salesforce or Agentforce, Cobalt integrates at both the platform level and directly with the Cobalt Security Robot.
Most integrations are configured during onboarding without infrastructure changes on your side. Scaling examples — such as a deployment moving from 10 to 60 cameras — illustrate what's possible inside an active environment, though every deployment is sized to the customer's specific systems and use cases.
