Is Your Surveillance System Truly Secure — or Just Technically Functional?
In 2017, 123 police CCTV surveillance cameras in Washington D.C. were hacked and taken offline — right before a high-profile public event. The issue wasn’t the camera. It was a failure of cybersecurity compliance. (Source: BBC)
Imagine a scenario where a major supplier loses a multi-crore government contract in India because their CCTV cameras lacked a mandatory RDSO certification for use on moving coaches.
In both cases, the cameras worked. But they weren’t certified and didn’t comply with the norms.
Certifications aren’t red tape. They prove your surveillance system is safe, secure, and legally fit for deployment — whether in a city, hospital, train, or airport.
In this guide, we explain why certifications are necessary for your video surveillance system and what are the different kinds of certifications you need.
Country-wise Certifications: Ensuring Legal Operation
Every country defines its own rules for what surveillance equipment is allowed. These certifications verify your system isn’t just functional — it’s legally compliant. These certifications protect you from failed tenders, seized shipments, and legal take-downs.

Real risk: Non-compliance can lead to project rejection, product seizure, or forced removal post-installation.
Matrix Network Cameras are ER-compliant, certified by STQC. Check out the official STQC website for confirmation.
Data Privacy: Securing Your Surveillance Footage
Surveillance doesn’t just record spaces — it records people. That’s why laws and certifications are in place to govern how video data is captured, stored, and interpreted, ensuring it’s handled ethically and lawfully.

Real risk: Without compliance, footage may be unusable in court — or worse, land you in legal trouble.
Cybersecurity: Protecting Your Surveillance Systems
Cybersecurity standards shield your surveillance system from hacking, tampering, and unauthorized access — ensuring that your footage remains intact, authentic, and out of the wrong hands.
To understand how to protect your system, read this blog on securing video surveillance systems against cyberattacks.
