About the company

Digital Barriers specialises in secure, bandwidth-efficient video streaming and edge-based AI analytics for operational environments where connectivity, latency, and reliability are critical.

Our technology enables organisations to access, share, and analyse live and recorded video from existing CCTV and remote video sources, even across constrained, contested, or unreliable networks.

Trusted by government, law enforcement, defence, and critical infrastructure customers, we operate in environments where technical credibility, resilience, and real-world performance matter. Success in this role depends on solving complex operational challenges, integrating with established video ecosystems such as Milestone XProtect, and delivering technology that works when it matters most.
