How Secure is Cloud Based CCTV? Cloud Video Surveillance Security

A common concern about storing video in the cloud is that it isn’t secure, but actually cloud based CCTV is inherently more secure than local storage.

One of the main reasons people look for a cloud based solution is because they’ve been let down by their local storage, either by tampering, theft, fire or flood. Not only are local recorders vulnerable to damage and theft, they also need regular firmware updates and without them, they can be insecure.

So, in terms of security what are the benefits of using Videoloft as your cloud video surveillance provider?

Videoloft is powered by a small bridging device known as a Cloud Adapter. The NDAA compliant Cloud Adapters are assembled in the UK and add a software interface between the local cameras/recorders and the internet.
We push software updates to every Videoloft Cloud Adapter on a weekly basis, so you don't need to worry about updating them yourself.
They can be installed remotely, and no port forwarding is required.
All video is transmitted to the Videoloft cloud over encrypted HTTPS channels, it's then stored in the cloud using 256-bit encryption. When someone views the video, it's sent to the viewing device again over encrypted HTTPS (the same technology used in internet banking!)
Videoloft footage is hosted on AWS - trusted by thousands of major global brands. They maintain stringent security standards including ISO27001, SOC 2 and SAS 70.
