Security and Privacy in Video Surveillance: Requirements and Challenges

TL;DR: A general model of video surveillance systems is presented that will help identify the major security and privacy requirements for a video surveillance system and a gap is shown between the identified security requirements and the proposed security solutions where future research efforts may focus in this domain.

IBM smart surveillance system (S3): a open and extensible framework for event based surveillance

TL;DR: This paper starts with a threat model for airports and uses this to derive the security requirements to motivate an open-standards based architecture for surveillance, and discusses the critical aspects of this architecture and its implementation in the IBM S3 smart surveillance system.
