IP-CCTV surveillance makes it possible to obtain a high level of security to prevent unauthorized viewing of footage or any tampering with the footage records. With the normal CCTV systems it is possible for a person to tap in and intercept signals. The person can also replace signals transmitted with other signals. This however, is not an issue with IP-CCTV surveillance which includes several authentication and encryption features to prevent tampering with signal transmission. As such banks, casinos and any institution at risk of this type of tampering will benefit from the use of IP-CCTV surveillance equipment which provides the required level of security.
