Case Study: Fraport Bulgaria achieves scalable, cloud-based airport security with Milestone Systems

How video in the cloud lightens the load for security at Bulgaria’s Twin Airports

Fraport Bulgaria, which manages the twin airports in Varna and Burgas, needed a more reliable, centralized way to handle security as traffic grew. Its older analog setup was slow, hard to maintain, and vulnerable to storage failures, so it partnered with **Milestone Systems** and used **XProtect Corporate** with Axis IP cameras to modernize surveillance and support smarter, more proactive operations.

**Milestone Systems** implemented a cloud-based, virtual video management solution that centralized security across both airports, integrated AI analytics and perimeter detection, and reduced manual intervention. The result was faster response times, easier scaling without adding on-premises storage, and a more flexible system that can be expanded quickly; Fraport Bulgaria can now add cameras and new capabilities in just a few clicks.
