Everything you need to know

Why video surveillance cloud storage matters

Video surveillance systems require reliable off-site storage to protect footage against loss, theft or hardware failure. Local storage creates a single point of failure. With cloud storage, footage is stored externally and remains accessible even if on-site systems are compromised.

Camera-to-cloud via FTP, SFTP and FTPS

Many IP cameras support FTP upload, making it possible to send recordings directly to cloud storage. With ftpGrid, cameras upload footage using standard protocols without additional infrastructure.

No NVR or local storage required

ftpGrid is designed for camera-to-cloud workflows without relying on local storage systems. Reducing hardware dependencies lowers maintenance and improves reliability.

Secure and GDPR-compliant storage in Europe

All footage is transferred using encrypted protocols and stored in the EU on privacy-first infrastructure. This ensures your video surveillance cloud storage meets modern security and GDPR requirements while keeping your data private and under your control.

Built for modern surveillance setups

Whether you are using Reolink, Hikvision, Dahua or other IP cameras, ftpGrid provides a scalable and reliable cloud storage solution. Motion-triggered uploads, secure transfer protocols and off-site storage combine to create a simple and effective backup strategy for surveillance footage.
