Milestone Systems will showcase the new XProtect Evidence Manager at two major industry events this fall: Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2025, Sept. 29-Oct. 1 in New Orleans (Booth 719), and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Conference, Oct. 18-21 in Denver (Booth 4011).

XProtect Evidence Manager

XProtect Evidence Manager represents a compelling shift in digital evidence management systems, bringing Milestone's open platform philosophy to evidence and case handling. The system addresses the escalating costs and vendor lock-in challenges as it brings freedom to the end customers in choosing a digital evidence management solution they can customize to fit their needs.

At this fall’s two major industry events in the US – GSX and IACP – security professionals will see firsthand how the XProtect Evidence Manager transforms evidence workflows through three key innovations:

  • Workflow Efficiency: Streamlined case management that dramatically reduces the time needed to build and manage cases, allowing operators to work more effectively with comprehensive evidence from multiple sources like documents, reports, cell phone dumps, 911 calls – along with a strong search function in all assets.
  • License-Free Sharing: Securely share evidence with stakeholders, including legal teams, investigators, and external partners, without requiring additional software licenses or complex installations. Organizations can send password-protected links rather than burning DVDs or copying files to physical media.
  • Storage Freedom: Complete flexibility to archive evidence on-premises, in the cloud, or across hybrid environments using any storage provider, including AWS, Azure, Wasabi, or existing infrastructure.

How XProtect Evidence Manager breaks down the barriers?

"By challenging entrenched market dynamics and introducing genuine freedom of choice, we're fundamentally disrupting how the industry approaches digital evidence," said Tim Palmquist, Vice President, Americas, Milestone Systems.

He adds, "GSX and IACP provide the perfect platform to demonstrate how XProtect Evidence Manager breaks down the barriers that have kept evidence management locked in proprietary silos."

Beyond law enforcement: A digital evidence management system

While set with public safety in mind, XProtect Evidence Manager grows beyond law enforcement

While developed with public safety in mind, XProtect Evidence Manager extends beyond law enforcement. Any organization handling incidents that require evidence management, including airports, casinos, university campuses, corporate facilities, and healthcare systems, can benefit from this open platform approach.

The XProtect Evidence Manager integrates seamlessly with XProtect video management software and analytics platforms like BriefCam to provide organizations with unprecedented freedom to build evidence management systems tailored to their specific needs without proprietary limitations.

Complete portfolio enhancements

Beyond the XProtect Evidence Manager, GSX and IACP attendees will experience the latest updates across Milestone's security technology portfolio.

The new XProtect 2025 R2 features Access Control Visualization on Smart Map, allowing operators to monitor doors, access points, card readers, and entry gates on the same interface as their cameras. When access-related events occur, door icons on the map automatically update, enabling operators to quickly identify and respond to security incidents.

Experience the digital evidence manager at GSX 2025

Security professionals attending either event can experience live XProtect Evidence Manager demonstrations at:

  • GSX 2025: Sept. 29-Oct. 1, New Orleans – Booth 719
  • IACP 2025: Oct. 18-21, Denver – Booth 4011

Demonstrations will show how a digital evidence management system, built with freedom of choice and flexibility in deployment, archiving, and integrations, helps organizations streamline evidence workflows, reduce costs, and increase operational efficiency.
