Closed-circuit television

Closed-circuit television (CCTV) is a security system that uses cameras to monitor and record activity within a specific area. Unlike broadcast TV, its footage is transmitted to a limited set of monitors or storage devices for viewing and analysis. CCTV is commonly used in public spaces, businesses, and homes to enhance safety, deter crime, and assist in investigations. The system can include features like night vision, motion detection, and remote access, making it a versatile tool for security management. Its purpose is to provide real-time surveillance and recorded evidence to improve safety and security.
