How far back can you check CCTV footage?
How far back can you check CCTV footage? Generally, security camera footage lasts from three months to one year based on cases. The old footage is deleted automatically to create space for new recordings. Note that each security camera is different and storage space too. A few businesses and financial institutions have a large amount of storage capacity.
How long store can go back and check security footage?
In general, properties keep CCTV footage as long as they have the storage capacity to do so. In most cases, this means supermarkets and other properties keep footage for around 30 to 90 days. However, this varies a great deal. Some only keep footage for a few hours while others may retain it indefinitely.
How long do airports keep CCTV footage?
TSA is unlikely to have airport videos unless we obtained them as a result of an alleged checkpoint incident or security breach. Therefore, we recommend that you request video recordings from the local airport authority. Also, be aware that airport authorities generally delete recordings after 30 days.
Can you look back on CCTV?
In security camera systems, where you are recording footage to your hard drive, you usually have between a week and a month of video storage available. It means you can only see footage as far back as that time unless you offload the video files onto an external storage device such as a computer or thumb drive.
