Most of the large security camera companies these days, like Verkada, utilize IP cameras for a variety of reasons.
Having the whole system be onsite and closed circuit requires a lot more hardware and wiring. IP cameras used to be an almost unusable option, but nowadays with how much data is required by high quality video it’s a far more reasonable option. Not to mention latency has improved significantly, which used to be a big problem with IP cameras.
Verkada style IP camera systems are far easier to install as well, compared to hardwiring a CCTV throughout a huge facility.
It can certainly be “online” and still be highly secure. Most clients would prefer that option over a traditional system
At this point I was assuming closed circut were technically all IP cameras, just running on their own isolated network, one not accessible from the internet.
FWIW, All of my cameras are onsite and store video on the network. Most of the affordable options got replaced with cloud products because of enshitty reasons, but it can be done reasonably by companies as long as they have someone IT adjacent or have IT services than can do the initial setup (which they’d probably hire out anyway) and do minimal monitoring of the video server and handle backups.
