Hi, I have been searching the community for up to date info on video security but not finding much. I have a couple of Pro cameras set up in the house to monitor garage etc and i haven't been too bothered with the way the video is stored in the cloud till now. 

 

We have since bought the baby monitor and it got me thinking, the monitor is going to be in my house probably in bedrooms etc. and is much more likely to accidentally record me (or my family) stumbling around naked in the night looking for a dressing gown etc. 

 

How securely is the video stored and who at Netgear /  Arlo / Amazon has access to my video?

 

I understand it's stored in AWS and secured via encryption during transit but can't find reference to storage,

 

Thanks,

It's not really spec'ed as to who ( if any ) people can "look" at your videos... In honest, I would imagine that if the NSA wanted your info they would some how get it but I don't really worry anyone else... just like emails, pics, and texts

 

Comes down to basics, I don't arm a cam in the bedroom , except when not home .... otherwise it usu faces the wall.( nice thing about wireless, it's easily moved )  You can turn off a cam ( primary acount holder only ) in settings for privacy even if shared.  So to me it comes down to using a strong PW.

 

best answer i think you'll get ... good luck
