How Epis Technology Keeps Your Surveillance Videos Safe and Private

Synology

Recent news stories have revealed serious security holes in well-known camera brands, so businesses are right to be worried about the privacy, safety, and control of their surveillance footage. Not all surveillance systems are the same because some have weak encryption, cloud vulnerabilities, and false privacy claims. In response, Epis Technology is stressing how Synology-powered surveillance solutions offer the best security, openness, and control, keeping your data safe and private.

Your surveillance data is always yours.

Synology Surveillance Station works with more than 8,300 IP cameras from more than 140 brands, including all models that work with ONVIF. When Epis Technology sets up Synology NAS or Deep Learning NVR systems for you, your recordings stay on your own hardware. They aren’t stored in third-party clouds, on vendor servers, or in secret places.

The DS cam mobile app can even get video directly from your Synology device. Synology servers never get any thumbnails, snapshots, or metadata. Businesses can keep full ownership and control over all of their old and new video recordings thanks to Epis Technology’s secure deployment and hardening methods.

Protection from recording to archiving all the way through

Epis Technology sets up Synology security cameras with encrypted protocols to make sure that your footage is safe at all times.

Sending Encrypted

Connections to Surveillance Station, whether through the web, a client, or a mobile device, go through HTTPS. Camera-to-NAS communication is protected by SRTP or HTTPS to stop tampering or interception.

AES-256 Encryption for Shared Folders

Epis Technology encrypts your recording directories with AES-256 using Synology’s Shared Folder Encryption. No one can see the footage on a stolen hard drive that is mounted somewhere else without the encryption key.

Encryption of Video on the Client Side

You can encrypt individual video files as well as storage folders. Even administrators need an encryption key to view footage with this feature. Not even Synology or Epis Technology can get the video back if the key is lost. This makes it one of the best ways to protect your privacy.

AI Analytics Are Completely Local and Never Go to Cloud Servers

Some features of Deep Learning NVR are:

Recognizing faces
Detecting intrusions
Recognizing license plates
Finding people and cars
Counting people

…are handled completely by the device. Epis Technology makes sure that all AI functions run on your device, which means that no analytics data is sent, uploaded, or shared.

This ensures compliance with regulations, especially in fields like healthcare, education, government, and financial services that need strict data governance.

C2 Backup for Surveillance: Cloud storage that is safe and has zero-knowledge encryption

Synology systems are meant for private on-prem storage, but many businesses need secure cloud backups. Epis Technology uses C2 Backup for Surveillance, which offers:

Recording in the cloud at the same time
Encrypted storage offsite
Access that is safe without exposing internal networks

C2 Backup lets you encrypt footage on your own device before it leaves your NAS. This is a way to ease worries about cloud privacy. No one, not even Synology or cloud administrators, can see your videos without the private key.

Epis Technology helps businesses safely handle encryption keys, retention settings, and cloud redundancy so they don’t accidentally lock themselves out or lose data.
