What type of encryption is used when uploading recordings using the Speco Bridge and Cloud NVR?
The Bridge recordings are uploaded using standard HTTPS protocols.
HTTPS uses encryption to secure data transfer between a web browser and a web server. The encryption protocol used is called Transport Layer Security (TLS), although it was formerly known as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). This protocol ensures that the data exchanged between the client and the server is encrypted and secure from eavesdroppers and man-in-the-middle attacks.
- Security: HTTPS encrypts all message contents, including HTTP headers and request/response data, providing protection against eavesdropping and tampering.
- Authentication: HTTPS requires a trusted third party to sign server-side digital certificates, ensuring that the website being accessed is legitimate.
- Privacy: HTTPS protects user communications, identity, and web browsing activities from being intercepted or altered.
