SECURE COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS USED IN VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS
Keywords:
Video surveillance systems, IP camera security, TLS, HTTPS, SRTP, ONVIF Security, cryptographic protocols,Abstract
This article analyzes the architecture, operational mechanisms, and practical effectiveness of the main secure communication protocols used in modern video surveillance systems: TLS/HTTPS, SRTP, and ONVIF Security. It examines the technical foundations for ensuring data confidentiality, integrity, and authentication during interactions between IP cameras, NVR/DVR devices, mobile clients, and cloud-based video management systems. The cryptographic algorithms of the protocols, session management, key exchange, resource requirements, and potential vulnerabilities are covered in detail.
