Alerts the moment a camera is covered, blinded, blurred, frozen, moved or loses its infrared, so no camera silently goes dark.
Visylix Camera Tampering Detection continuously watches every feed for signs that a camera has been sabotaged or degraded. It recognizes when a lens is knocked out of focus, covered, blinded by a redirected light source, or when a camera is physically moved or its view is blocked. Each camera learns its own environment and adapts to legitimate lighting changes throughout the day and night, while smart timing logic suppresses false alarms from people walking past or lights switching on and off. The moment tampering is confirmed, the system raises a critical alert, so operators know a camera has been compromised rather than discovering blind spots only after an incident.
What Camera Tampering Detection does for your team.
Flags a camera that has been deliberately or accidentally knocked out of focus so it can no longer capture usable footage.
Detects a covered lens or a redirected bright light source that would otherwise leave the camera unable to see.
Identifies when a camera is physically moved, redirected, or its field of view is blocked or sprayed over.
Learns each camera's own day-to-night light cycle so dark night scenes do not raise false alarms, and a normal day/night switch is never mistaken for tampering.
Spots a feed that has frozen on one image and a camera whose infrared lighting has failed at night.
Confirms tampering only when it persists, so a passer-by or a light switching on does not trigger a false alarm.
Raises a high-severity alert the instant sabotage is confirmed, with dashboard, SMS, email, and webhook notifications.
Where Camera Tampering Detection makes a difference.
Ensures cameras protecting substations, data centers, and utilities cannot be quietly disabled before an incident.
Alerts when cameras over registers, stockrooms, or entrances are covered or repositioned.
Detects sabotage of outdoor cameras along secured perimeters, including covering, bagging, or redirection.
Provides tamper assurance for remote or lights-out facilities where a blind camera would otherwise go unnoticed for hours.
Private, flexible and tuned to each camera.

Cameras that are covered, blinded by light, blurred or defocused, frozen, or turned to point somewhere else, plus infrared (IR) failure at night. The tile flips to alert, so a blinded camera is never mistaken for a quiet one.
No. Each camera learns its own day-and-night light cycle, so dusk and the switch to night mode are not treated as tampering.
Tamper alerts go to the alarm console and any channel you choose, and the device-health console shows every camera's condition at a glance.
