AI face blur designed for CCTV and fixed-camera footage

AI face blur designed for CCTV and fixed-camera footage

Security camera footage has different challenges than phone video: low frame rates, wide angles, infrared night mode, compression artifacts, and distant subjects. BGBlur is built to blur faces in CCTV footage where people move through lobbies, parking lots, retail floors, warehouses, and building entrances. Upload exported MP4 or MOV clips and anonymize visible faces before sharing outside your security team.

Blur faces in CCTV video for privacy requests and audits

Organizations increasingly need to release redacted CCTV clips for GDPR access requests, internal investigations, tenant disputes, and vendor review. Manual face masking in NVR exports is slow and error-prone. BGBlur automates face detection and tracking across long surveillance segments so you can produce a privacy-safe version faster while keeping the incident context intact.

Retail, office, and property security use cases

Retail, office, and property security use cases

Property managers, retail operators, and workplace security teams often capture bystanders, employees, customers, and visitors in the same clip. BGBlur helps blur faces in CCTV footage before the video goes to insurers, HR, law enforcement partners, or external consultants. This reduces accidental identity exposure while preserving timestamps, camera angles, and event sequence.

Works with exported clips from major CCTV systems

Upload surveillance exports from common NVR and VMS workflows rather than trying to blur directly inside proprietary camera software. BGBlur processes standard video files in the browser, making it useful when your CCTV platform lacks flexible redaction tools or when you need a fast secondary review pass before publication.

Combine face blur with plate and object redaction

Combine face blur with plate and object redaction

Some CCTV incidents also expose license plates, name badges, screen content, or sensitive paperwork in frame. Pair face blur with BGBlur's license plate and object blur workflows when a clip needs broader redaction. This gives security and compliance teams one online stack for anonymizing surveillance footage before release.
