Safety and reliability play an increasingly important role nowadays
What does NDAA Compliant mean for security cameras?
When looking for a reliable security solution, you'll increasingly encounter the term NDAA compliance . But what exactly does that mean, and why is it important?
What is the NDAA?
The acronym NDAA stands for the National Defense Authorization Act —a U.S. law passed annually that includes regulations on U.S. national security. The 2019 NDAA (Section 889) includes a provision banning the use of telecom and video surveillance equipment from certain Chinese manufacturers within the U.S. government and its partners.
What does NDAA compliance mean for IP cameras?
An NDAA-compliant security camera does not contain components (such as chipsets or software) from blacklisted manufacturers, such as Hikvision , Dahua , or their OEM brands. This means these cameras meet the strictest requirements for:
-
Cybersecurity
-
Data privacy
-
Reliability
Demand for NDAA-compliant products is also growing in Europe, particularly among government agencies, healthcare institutions, and companies that value data protection and want to avoid geopolitical risks.
Why choose an NDAA-compliant camera?
-
✅ Suitable for critical infrastructure
(such as government buildings, ports, healthcare and education) -
✅ Better protection against cybersecurity risks
-
✅ Certainty about the origin of components
-
✅ No dependence on sanctioned manufacturers
Who is this relevant for?
-
Government agencies (including outside the US)
-
Companies with international customers or contracts
-
Organizations that work with sensitive information
-
Private individuals who want maximum security
