Milestone Systems is advancing security measures at Resorts World Las Vegas (RWLV) using its open platform video management software, Milestone XProtect VMS.
This software forms the core of a comprehensive video ecosystem, integrating security operations, gaming compliance, and operational intelligence. Founded in 2021 on the famed Las Vegas Strip, the resort is a high-tech haven in the United States, featuring an 88-acre property that encompasses diverse hotel brands, substantial casino areas, entertainment zones, retail outlets, and a variety of dining options, drawing thousands of visitors daily.
Diverse set of technologies
Ensuring safety, compliance, and operational efficiency at RWLV requires innovative video technology to support thousands of cameras and multiple specialised applications. Milestone’s XProtect VMS provides the infrastructure needed, accommodating about 5,800 cameras in addition to multiple high-end technologies.
This open architecture enables the integration of diverse technologies that cater to gaming surveillance, fraud detection, forensic investigations, business intelligence, and operational analytics, all accessible through a unified interface. "We rely on the system every day to investigate fraud, theft, and any activity that could result in a loss. It gives us the visibility we need to quickly understand what happened and take action," noted Lindsay Dever, CFE, Assistant Director of Fraud & Nightclub Surveillance at Resorts World Las Vegas.

The security framework incorporates camera technologies from Axis Communications, Bosch, and Hanwha Vision, with BriefCam providing forensic video review, people counting, and heat mapping. Facial recognition is enabled by Oosto, while Aeyesky offers card-counting and cheating detection, and AXIS Case Insight facilitates foot traffic and customer behaviour analysis.
“Large, dynamic environments like Resorts World Las Vegas require technology that can adapt to multiple operational needs without adding complexity,” remarked Tim Palmquist, VP Americas at Milestone Systems. “An open platform approach allows this Las Vegas casino resort to bring together best-of-breed technologies into a single ecosystem, enabling teams to improve investigations, support regulatory requirements, and generate operational insights that extend well beyond traditional security.”
Time-sensitive investigations
Resorts World Las Vegas benefits by rapidly responding to incidents and enhancing investigation efficiency, which also bolsters law enforcement interventions.
The advantages are particularly prominent during time-sensitive investigations. Looking to the future, the resort aims to expand its AI-driven capabilities, focusing on improving people counting, behavioural analytics, and guest movement tracking throughout the venue. Planned enhancements will also streamline operator workflows, fostering a more proactive investigative approach.
