About This Service
You are at work.
But do you know what's happening at home?
Could a burglar be breaking in?
Could your pets be doing something naughty?
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to check on your home anytime anywhere, and have the peace of mind knowing that everything is OK?!
But who wants to have ugly security cameras everywhere?! It's a home, not a prison!
And which security DVR would one need to tinker with to get the remote viewing to work well? And what happens to the stored footage if the burglars also steal the DVR?
And even if remote viewing is supported, by uploading to, storing on, and viewing the footage from the DVR manufacturer's proxy server, who else out there with access to that server might be able to view your home, besides only you, and not just without your consent, but also entirely without your knowledge??
Aahhh dilemmas dilemmas...
And yet those burglars could still be breaking in right now, and there is just no way to know...
And who knows how the dog is doing...
But no need to stress! With villacam.net you don't have to guess!
Because villacam.net allows you to see what's happening at your house, apartment, or villa at anytime and from anywhere you can access this website!
And no need to shop for new equipment! Most of your existing non-iOS devices, even those 10-year-old computers that are otherwise collecting dust can be repurposed into some decent ad-hoc home security cameras with the villacam.net website.
Just use any old webcam-enabled PC, laptop, or a non-iOS tablet or phone! Setup as many around your home as you need to observe key areas!
iOS devices are not supported for recording due to Apple restrictions on browser vendors; however, these devices can still be used for viewing.
Most non-iOS smartphones / tablets that can be positioned on tripods and also run the Chrome / Chromium browsers will work well, especially in case of a power or home network outage. Multiple devices can be used simultaneously.
No special software or drivers to install. Just open this website on your non-iOS device(s) with the Chrome / Chromium browser, enable webcam permissions, and click Record within your villacam.net member dashboard to acquire security frames at your premises!
Intelligent motion-detection algorithms running on your recording devices minimize the unremarkable, and maximize the valuable action footage.
Your footage is encrypted on your recording devices, and then uploaded to and stored on this online service in its encrypted form.
Even if some thief steals your recording devices, your footage of them doing the stealing remains accessible to you safe and sound.
Encryption in a reversible algorithmic process that, through the use of unique private keys, converts readable decipherable data into unreadable undecipherable data that is indistinguishable from random noise, and back again given the possession of those same keys. This allows for long-term storage of the original data in such a way that it is protected from unauthorized viewing, regardless of where it might be stored.
The encryption and decryption of your footage is computationally performed on your recording and viewing devices only, using a unique snapshot encryption passphrase that you choose and type-in separately from your account password. Unlike your account password, which is obviously transmitted to this service to recognise you when you login, your snapshot encryption passphrase, as well as the AES-256 encryption key derived from it, are not transmitted to and not stored by the service.
In the unlikely event that this service itself gets compromised, and even if the attackers gain access to the stored snapshot repository, since the service does not have the snapshot encryption passphrases, the attackers will not have them either.
Securely and confidently check on your home anytime anywhere from your phone or computer, right over this website.
Browse the latest and prior snapshots up to 2 hours back with free membership, up to 2 weeks back with paid $5 / month membership!
Credit card information is charged, stored, and managed by a 3-rd party credit card processing service called Stripe.
In the unlikely event that this service gets compromised, and even if the attackers gain access to the user database, since the service does not have the user credit card numbers, the attackers will not have them either.
Enjoy your peace of mind!
