Overview At Cisco Systems, the Safety and Security department manages internal security for more than 300 facilities worldwide. When Cisco first began using CCTV for surveillance, analog cameras at building entrances and other high-security locations sent analog video signals over coaxial cable to video cassette recorders (VCRs) that recorded onto tape. The Cisco Security department surmounted these difficulties when it transitioned from VCRs to a third-party digital video recorder (DVR) card running on a Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 server platform that Safety and Security supported without help from IT. Cisco could now store data collected during an entire month on direct attached storage within the DVR.
