How to encrypt SD card data
To prevent unauthorized individuals and systems from accessing recorded video, the SD card content can be encrypted. Encryption
can only be enabled when the card is unmounted. After enabling encryption, the SD card must be formatted so that no unencrypted
data remains on the card. The card must also be mounted before it can be used.
Note
If autoformat is enabled, the card will be formatted and mounted automatically when encryption is enabled. The format and
mount steps below should then be skipped.
To encrypt the SD card content:
1. Open the Axis product's webpages and go to Setup > System Options > Storage.
2. Click SD Card to open Storage Management.
3. If the SD card is mounted, click Unmount to unmount the card.
4. Click Encrypt.
5. Select Enable SD card encryption and enter a passphrase.
6. Back in Storage Management, click Format to format the SD card.
7. Click Mount to mount the SD card.
It is possible to change the passphrase without reformatting the card. Open Storage Management, click Encrypt and enter the
old and new passphrases. The passphrase can only be changed when the card is mounted. Changing the passphrase does not
disrupt ongoing recordings.
To disable encryption, unmount the SD card and follow the steps above but clear the Enable SD card encryption option. The card
must be formatted and mounted when encryption has been disabled.
