How does Arlo keep my videos private and secure in the cloud?

The Arlo system is designed to support the highest level of security to keep your videos private and secure in the cloud. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is used to protect your information. This is the same encryption method that financial institutions use to safeguard user data. AES 256-bit encryption and Transport Layer Security (TLS) ensure that all Arlo traffic is encrypted and secure.

In addition, Arlo implements the following security measures:

  • Strict password requirements are in place to keep your account safe.
  • Arlo requires two-step verification as an extra layer of security to protect your personal audio and video recordings.
  • Account authentication over a secure HTTPS connection prevents eavesdropping.
  • Arlo limits login attempts (a maximum of five login attempts within five minutes) to prevent bots from guessing your password.
  • Arlo videos are encrypted when stored.

Best practice is to always install the most recent version of Arlo apps.

Only people who were granted access and have an account email and password can access Arlo videos.
