Video redaction for venues and museums

Provide compliant incident footage in minutes, not days

Your team doesn’t have to blur out faces, IDs, licence plates, and credit card info frame by frame.

Instead, automate redaction to quickly mask personal data in:

  • Venue incident footage for law enforcement

  • Clips requested by insurers or legal teams

  • Security team incident analysis and training videos

Video redaction challenges for venues and museums

You need a solution that won’t slow down your response

From sharing incident videos with authorities to SARs response, venues and museums need software that can handle:

Processing videos with high-volume footfall and traffic

If your software doesn't accurately recognise and mask faces and licence plates in videos of crowds, your team will need to manually blur them out, which can take up hours.

Redaction across multiple camera formats

You need a solution that can work equally well with CCTV and body cameras, plus mobile phone recordings; including low-quality footage and videos with audio.

Compliance with new public safety regulations

With new regulations, such as Martyn's Law, venues need to make sure their teams can quickly process videos without getting distracted from other tasks.

The investment in Identity Cloak is value for money, there are many ways in which the software has paid for itself, from risk and reputation management to cost-effective compliance with GDPR, as failure to comply with GDPR carries hefty fines.

It takes us one or two minutes to retrieve the video and usually about half an hour to process and output a compliant record of events. That’s compared to the hours it used to take to redact video and the resource drain on Wembley Park. Identity Cloak is easy to use.

We see Identity Cloak as part of our operational system. It helps us to maintain our standards, meet legal requirements, and gain the trust of our customers and staff.

Video redaction for venues and museums FAQ

Venues and museums are seeing an increase in police incidents and data requests. With increased exposure through social media, there is more video data which requires redacting.

With strict data protection rules, operators must ensure they redact those not required for the request and ensure the publics’ privacy rights are intact.

While different types of video redaction software may have different approaches, Identity Cloak uses AI technology. It recognises faces, bodies and licence plates, automatically tracks these objects, whether still or in motion, and adds a “blur” around the subject or subjects of interest.

With Identity Cloak, you can also select specific areas to protect privacy rights of your staff and members of the public. The original file is left unchanged for data integrity and the new redacted footage is irreversible to ensure data security is upheld.

Identity Cloak redacts footage of crowded areas with minimal manual editing.

It works with any file which can be played in a VLC player and has a screen recorder when the file cannot be imported. This means your staff will be able redact footage from multiple sources, such as mobile phones, dashcams and bodycams.

Minimal training is required to run Identity Cloak, meaning it doesn’t need to be a CCTV operative. Anyone can use the software to redact footage of busy environments.

Identity Cloak video redaction software supports videos in mp4 and AVI format, or you can use the screen recorder to convert if you have another file type. You'll be able to export the redacted files in AVI or mp4 formats.

As the file is imported into the software, the original files remains unchanged. The exported file is irreversible to ensure compliance with data protection laws.

Identity Cloak is the name of Facit’s AI-powered video redaction software. Identity Cloak automatically blurs faces, licence plates and objects, and works on-premise to prevent data breaches.

Identity Cloak enables faster redaction, even if you need to redact fast-moving people, low-quality files or footage recorded in crowded spaces. The automated video redaction means it is quicker than traditional redaction methods to blur crowded scenes - saving you time and resources.
