Aventura Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

When the unfortunate attacks of September 11th occurred, security rose to the top of the agenda in every local, state and federal government agency. The Department of Homeland Security was created and Fortune 1000 organizations promoted their Surveillance Directors to Chief Security Officers, a newly created “C” level management designation. The video surveillance industry has since witnessed 30% annual growth. 

Aventura Holdings operates through our two wholly owned subsidiaries Video Stream, Inc. and Amex Security, Inc.  We are engaged in the information technology and surveillance sectors developing solutions to fulfill high-quality enterprise video surveillance needs. Specifically, Aventura develops open standard and proprietary Internet Protocol (IP) video surveillance systems with the ability to scale to enterprise environments.

Product Development History

Since inception of current management tenure, the mission of the Company has been to develop and refine intellectual property. The Company has focused on the research, development and deployment of video surveillance products such as digital video recorders, IP streaming servers, central management servers, cameras and other peripheral equipment.

Network and intelligent video represents and drives the most profound changes in the video security industry. We live in a digitized and networked world where internet protocol changes the way we live and work. It is not a matter of if the entire market will be digitized and converged onto the internet but when. Video surveillance emerged as a viable market in the 1970s with the introduction of the videocassette recorder (VCR). In the early 1990s the digital video recorder (DVR) paved the road for the digital revolution but it was really a replacement for the VCR and multiplexer. The DVR combined two products into one and added the benefits of digital recording, but it was still a box with analog inputs that simply recorded. In the mid 1990s DVRs became equipped with a communication interface that enabled the retrieval of recorded or live video from a remote location. However, most 1990s networks were 10-Mb and utilized compression algorithms that were too "fat" for efficient transportation of video over a network. By 2000, 100-Mb networks were commonplace and by 2007 a common enterprise-class 48 port network switch enabled Gigabit performance on every port with the ability to stream video from thousands of locations at full frame rates and resolutions via the 10-Gibit backplane. Open interfaces in the IT industry enabled the emergence of independent software companies that build applications for video management.

When the unfortunate attacks of September 11th occurred, security rose to the top of the agenda in every local, state and federal government agency. The Department of Homeland Security was created and Fortune 1000 organizations began designating "C" level positions for security making Chief Security Officers part of management. Aventura Holdings, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries recognized the need for scalable enterprise video surveillance solutions and we developed intelligent software platform designs. Current management has hands-on experience developing and deploying video surveillance systems for US government military bases, defense contractor installations, prisons, law enforcement venues, government subsidized housing projects, casinos, race tracks and cruise ships.
