If you have ever wondered How do you know if a security camera is fake<\/a>?<\/strong><\/em>, in Nivian<\/a> we explain how to tell the difference between a real surveillance camera and a fake surveillance camera<\/p>\n

1.How to spot a fake surveillance camera?<\/h3>\n

\u23e9 The fake surveillance cameras<\/a>, also known as simulated or non-operational cameras<\/strong>, they are simple surveillance camera housings without the internal electronics that allow the capture of images.<\/p>\n\n

These security cameras are intended to serve as criminal deterrent<\/strong> at a very low cost and without the need for installation or maintenance since they work with AA batteries. Unlike most real cameras, whose installation tends to go unnoticed, fake cameras are often intentionally placed in a conspicuous place, so that anyone passing by perceives them and feels watched not knowing if the camera is fake or not.<\/p>\n\n

The simulated cameras <\/a><\/strong>of Nivian, have a authentic casing and real elements<\/strong>\u00a0 typical of a video surveillance camera, they have an intermittent light that appears to be recording, as well as LEDs and real wiring, and they even activate automatically when they detect movement. In addition to this, Nivian includes in its boxes a video surveillance area sign to place in the facilities and warn of the possibility of being recorded in a public area. In this way, we ensure the verifiability of our security camera.<\/p>\n\n

When looking for a video surveillance camera installation, a type of mixed installation<\/strong>, where the operative cameras are located in the most important places and the false ones serve as support, since nobody will know if they are false cameras or not.<\/p>\n

2. Differences between real and fake security cameras<\/h3>\n

It is essential to have knowledge of the main differences between the two in order to know what kind of fake surveillance cameras to avoid and determine which real security cameras suit our requirements.<\/p>\n

And that is why there are seven main determining indicators:<\/p>\n
