Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for automatically limiting video surveillance collection to authorized uses and authorized users. To achieve this control, the authorization system can be configured to manage and secure a plurality of crypto keys associated with encrypting a plurality of corresponding video footages and release a crypto key for a video footage at approved times to limit user access to the video footage. In particular, the surveillance system can generate a video collection including a copy of portions of a received video footage that include one or more approved events from a watchlist of a user. Thereafter, the video footage can be encrypted by a first key managed by the authorization system and prevents the user from accessing video content of the video footage once encrypted. Accordingly, the user may be limited to accessing the video collection and not all the portions in the encrypted video footage.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for implementing a video surveillance system. In one or more examples, the improved system can include a video managing system that applies one or more watchlists, to video footage captured by surveillance cameras to apply one or more processing policies indicated by the one or more watchlists. In some embodiments, a watchlist may indicate a plurality of events of interest (e.g., specific classes of objects, a presence of one or more persons, or one or more persons of interest, etc.) that should be detected from video footage. Through these mechanisms, video processing can be increased since the types of events of interest that need to be detected within the video footage are reduced. Non-transitory storage requirements are reduced, and human labor requirements to monitor, analyze, and review video surveillance footage is reduced.
