What is CCTV?
A surveillance system called closed-circuit television (CCTV) sends a signal from a video camera to a designated location on a small number of displays. It is widely used for security purposes, monitoring activities in various environments such as businesses, schools, homes, and public spaces. CCTV systems can deter criminal activity, provide real-time surveillance, and record footage for later review, enhancing overall security and peace of mind
