surveillance video
Recorded monitoring footage
Surveillance video is footage recorded by security cameras, typically monitoring public spaces, businesses, or private property.
The term usually appears when such recordings become evidence: Police reviewed surveillance video from nearby stores.
Unlike personal video, surveillance video implies continuous, automated recording—watching whether or not anyone is there to watch.
