Secure On-Demand Access to Domestic CCTV Footage Using Privacy-Centric Client-Server Architecture
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: With the growing use of CCTV cameras for home and office security, accessing footage for safety or investigative purposes has become a necessity. However, this comes with concerns about privacy, user control, and data security. In this paper, we propose a client-server system that allows secure, on-demand access to CCTV footage from domestic users. The system enables a central authority to request footage, with access granted or denied by users in real-time, ensuring privacy preservation. The architecture relies on secure communication protocols to transmit video data and integrates modern encryption to safeguard footage. Initial testing has demonstrated over 95% accuracy in footage retrieval, with low latency and high-quality streaming in various environments.
