The Best in Security

Trusted Manufacturers

Our camera hardware is manufactured by trusted partners who adhere to the same stringent security policies that we do.

Firmware Signing

Each piece of code that we ship is ‘signed’ with Verkada’s secret key. That means nobody can run code on our cameras but us.

Durable Design

Torx Screws and IK10 rated impact protection mean that our cameras are some of the most durable and tamper-resistant on the market.

Tamper Detection

Proprietary Algorithms and a built-in accelerometer are specifically tuned to detect physical and occlusive sabotage.

Encryption in Transit

We encrypt all data that is sent over the network with AES 128 standards. On top of that, we exclusively use HTTPS over TLS v1.2 to add an extra layer of security.

Encryption means any malicious interception (be it MITM or Eavesdropping) is neither fatal nor compromising.

No Port-Forwarding

Solely employing HTTPS traffic means that all of our data enters and exits through the secure Port 443.

We never utilitze Port-Forwarding, a major vulnerability of traditional NVR systems.

Required Network Settings

All Verkada-powered security ecosystems are configured to follow our network protocol guidelines.

This is how we offer industry-leading security practices, even on your local or personal network.

Compliance

Because of our commitment to security and durability, we are compliant to some of the strictest electronic hardware standards. Out of the box, we are PCI and GDPR compliant, and can be configured to comply with HIPAA.

AWS Security Measures

Amazon has exceptional security protocol for their web services. Read more about Security, one of Amazon’s five pillars of their Well-Architected Framework.

At-Rest Encryption

At rest, we encrypt all of your footage and other sensitive data using AES 256, one of the most cryptographically secure encryption algorithms currently used in industry.

Automatic Cloud Backup

Verkada cameras can automatically sync their local storage to the cloud. That means no matter what happens on-site, or even to the camera itself, your data will be safe and sound.

Reliability

AWS and our cloud architecture eliminate any single point of failure in your security system. Our Business Continuity Plan ensures redundancy and reliability, even in the event of catastrophe.

Single Sign On

We partner with the most trusted Single Sign-On providers in the industry, including Okta, Onelogin, Google Business Apps and Azure Active Directory.

Multi-Factor Authentication

If you prefer not to use SSO, we also offer a robust Multi-Factor Authentication system, partnered with industry-leading MFA providers including: Duo, Lastpass, RSA, Google Authenticator.

Role Based Access Control

Easily customizable individual and group access setting mean allow you to thoughtfully assign access to only the right people.

Audit Logs

Comprehensive audit logs help reveal who has accessed your system, and any changes they have made.

Automatic Software Updates

Verkada’s Cameras are designed to apply firmware updates automatically during off hours (to keep bandwidth usage low). That means you’ll never miss out when we roll out new features or critical security updates.

Regular Penetration Testing

We employ an independent security firm to continually run penetration tests on our systems. This is how we find and fix security exploits before they ever threaten our customers.
