How it works

Up and recording in three steps.

SecureWatch records at your location and lets you reach that footage from anywhere. Here’s how it fits together.

The details

What happens behind the scenes.

At each location

A SecureWatch recorder (software on a computer at the site) takes in your cameras and records continuously to local storage. It has its own admin screen, so you can manage the site directly.

When the internet drops

Recording carries on. Remote playback for that site waits until the connection is back, but the footage is already safe on site.

When you watch remotely

Your site connects out to SecureWatch over an encrypted connection, and footage is relayed to you from the site that holds it. You don’t open a video port on your firewall.

Keeping it up to date

Software updates are published through Rubix Hub, so routine upgrades don’t need someone on site.

The big picture

Sites record. You stay connected.

Each box records on site. The cloud in the middle is how you reach them, not where your footage lives.

FAQ

Common questions

Where is my footage stored?

On site. SecureWatch records your cameras to storage at your location. When you watch remotely, the video is relayed from that site. It isn’t a second copy of every frame stored in our cloud.

Can SecureWatch continue recording without internet?

Yes. Recording happens locally, so it keeps going during an internet interruption. Remote playback for that site resumes when the connection comes back, and the local admin is still available on site.

Can I access footage from another location?

Yes. When your site is connected, you can review its footage remotely through SecureWatch. The connection is encrypted and started by your site, so you don’t open a video port on your firewall.

What equipment is required?

Your network (IP) cameras, plus a computer at each location to run SecureWatch. It needs to reach your cameras, have storage for footage, and have an outbound internet connection for remote playback. We’ll share sizing guidance when you get access.
