Your video surveillance system is only as good as the data it stores. In the event that this data is somehow lost the system loses all value. Often with traditional video surveillance systems, if equipment fails on the camera network itās likely that there is no way to notify someone of the issue in a timely manner.
This means that cameras and their storage capacities won’t work until someone discovers the issue, which often happens after an emergency or theft has occurred.
The cloud is designed to reduce your overall liabilities by hosting the software and hardware in the cloud for data backup and redundancy in a secure data center, so that even if cameras malfunction, your video data is protected and can still be accessed.
