Actuate Launches Actuate Secure to Deliver Modern VPN Connectivity Without Complexity

By SDM Editors

March 5, 2026

Actuate launched Actuate Secure, a modern VPN connectivity solution that securely connects cameras and video management systems (VMS) to the Actuate cloud without exposing devices to the public internet or requiring complex, hardware-heavy infrastructure.

Built on modern frameworks including WireGuard and Tailscale, Actuate Secure creates a lightweight, encrypted tunnel between a customer’s network and the Actuate cloud. A small peer client installed on an on-premises device, such as a VMS server or network appliance, enables secure communication without inbound port exposure.

Actuate Secure complements Actuate’s existing connectivity options, allowing customers to choose the approach that best aligns with their security posture, infrastructure and deployment requirements.

Actuate Secure is designed to scale across sites and deployments, supporting organizations that require consistent encryption, predictable performance and reduced administrative overhead.
