Cameras get their own network segment with no route to your personal devices.
Footage lands on storage you own, retained on a schedule you set.
Questions people ask
What makes a camera an IP camera?
It connects to a network and streams video as data, so any computer on the network — not a dedicated recorder — can receive it.
Do IP cameras need the cloud?
No. Most can record to a memory card, a network drive, or a self-hosted recorder, keeping footage entirely under your control.
What is the biggest security mistake?
Exposing a camera directly to the internet with default credentials. Isolate cameras and reach them through a VPN instead.
