Intraframe compression (also called spatial compression) reduces the size of each individual frame independently by reducing redundant information within the frame, similar to how JPEG compression works for still images. This compression technique reduces file size while maintaining high image quality. Interframe compression (also called temporal compression) reduces file size across multiple frames by creating a starting point and then only saving the changes in subsequent frames.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/redundancy-and-security-systems/</link><pubDate>Tue, 31 Oct 2023 17:35:31 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/redundancy-and-security-systems/</guid><description>By Dimi Sandu, Head of Solutions Engineering (EMEA) Planning redundancy when it comes to your security systems is paramount, as any gaps become vulnerabilities, and can be exploited by an attacker. Consider a regular home camera system, used by the owners to keep an eye on the property while away. At any point, an intruder can cut the power, bringing down with it not only the network infrastructure, but also the devices themselves.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/common-computer-network-components/</link><pubDate>Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:48:35 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/common-computer-network-components/</guid><description>By Dimi Sandu, Head of Solutions Engineering (EMEA) With IT and facilities converging, it is essential for any security professional to understand, on a high level, the way the LAN (Local Area Network) works. This will allow them to plan and secure their deployments in a more redundant manner, working alongside their IT colleagues and technical integrators in order to improve the overall system. In this article, I will list the most common elements making up the LAN, the infrastructure that not only allows employees to work, but also connects all IT systems, including the security devices (e.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/firewalls/</link><pubDate>Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:04:24 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/firewalls/</guid><description>By Dimi Sandu, Head of Solutions Engineering (EMEA) You have probably heard the phrase ‘punch a hole through the firewall’ and, if you are not an IT professional, wondered what that might exactly mean. In this article, we will provide a brief overview of this essential piece of equipment that keeps your networks safe. First of all, if you are new to networking, I would recommend you read this article here, detailing a few important devices that, linked together, create the networks we all rely to work when using our computers and phones.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/crimping-tools-reviews/</link><pubDate>Mon, 30 Oct 2023 20:13:06 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/crimping-tools-reviews/</guid><description>By Ciaran Gillespie, Solutions Engineer An RJ45 crimper is a very important device within a security installer&rsquo;s toolkit. Whether you are a hobbyist, DIY installer, or a seasoned professional, choosing the right tool for your needs will eliminate any headache when it comes to terminating Cat5/6 cabling. There are many types of crimping tools available to suit all budgets and skill levels. For example, if you’re a DIYer, only crimping a few connections, you could comfortably use the cheaper tools that are readily available online.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/how-to-terminate-ethernet-cables/</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Aug 2023 16:41:44 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/how-to-terminate-ethernet-cables/</guid><description>Terminating Ethernet Cables CAT5/CAT6 Ethernet cables are commonly used for connecting your security hardware to a network device, and understanding how to properly terminate Ethernet cables is a crucial step for ensuring a proper connection without distortion or signal loss. Termination involves attaching connectors to the cable ends, allowing them to be plugged into network devices like switches, routers, cameras, or computers. This physical connection is essential for data transfer between devices.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/cloud-video-storage/</link><pubDate>Tue, 29 Oct 2019 16:40:11 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/cloud-video-storage/</guid><description>Cloud Video Storage Cloud storage, as the name implies, is a method of storing surveillance footage in the cloud. Unlike traditional CCTV systems, modern surveillance systems that store footage in the cloud offer organizations a simple way to scale video storage to meet retention requirements. Without being restricted by limitations of on-premise recorders like NVRs and DVRs, cloud camera systems are quickly becoming a popular option among fast growing businesses.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/hybrid-cloud-video-storage/</link><pubDate>Mon, 28 Oct 2019 17:28:32 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/hybrid-cloud-video-storage/</guid><description>Hybrid Cloud Video Storage Hybrid cloud security systems use a combination of onboard camera storage with a cloud data storage solution. These systems often provide a wealth of benefits over standard Internet protocol (IP) security camera offerings and give users a greater degree of flexibility than pure cloud cameras—which require a consistent Internet connection consuming large amounts of network bandwidth.

It’s one of two local storage options for closed-circuit television (CCTV) security systems—the second being network video recorders (NVRs). DVR and NVR devices are similar in that they both have the ability to capture video footage. However, the devices differ in how they are set up, which cameras they are compatible with, and how they process raw video data.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/network-video-recorder-nvr/</link><pubDate>Sat, 26 Oct 2019 01:50:39 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/network-video-recorder-nvr/</guid><description>Network Video Recorders (NVRs) Network video recorders (NVRs) are one of two local storage options for closed-circuit television (CCTV) security systems—the other being digital video recorders (DVRs). The main similarity between NVR and DVR devices is that they both have the ability to capture video, however, the two devices are different in terms of how they are installed, their compatibility with enterprise grade cameras, and how they process raw data.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Nov 2018 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://info.verkada.com/video-storage/</guid><description>Video Surveillance Storage With a number of security camera models and systems available on the market today, the first part of the buying decision is universal regardless of your camera must-haves: video storage. There are three main types of security camera storage options to choose from—local, hybrid cloud, and cloud—and determining which method of video storage makes the most sense for your business can help you narrow down what type of security camera system best meets the needs of your organization.</description></item></channel></rss>
