Retention Challenges in Video Surveillance Storage
Video surveillance retention is the practice of keeping recorded footage from security cameras for a specified period of time. While this technology can be beneficial in solving crimes and monitoring security, it is not without its limitations. One of the biggest limitations of video surveillance retention is the cost involved. Installing and maintaining a video surveillance system can be expensive, and the cost of storing the recorded footage can add up quickly.

i-PRO Shares Its Top Video Surveillance Trends Predictions for 2023
i-PRO shared its top five predictions for the physical security industry in 2023. 2023 will see significant adoption of AI-based analytics in cameras and video management systems (VMS) as more manufacturers provide this feature within their standard camera lines. There are simply too many camera streams for humans to monitor effectively, so AI-based analytics will be a catalyst that enables security departments to do more with less. This evolution will drive a significant shift in stance for physical security by enabling organizations to become more proactive in response to real-time events instead of reacting to past events. In 2023 focus will shift from capturing video to gathering data. The challenge will be in how effectively organizations are able to utilize this data not only for security, but also for cross-departmental operations to increase efficiencies and revenue.
