Name Description
Include digital signature
Select to include a digital signature to your exported database.
Depending on your surveillance system settings, the video or audio
might already contain a signature. If this is the case, these
signatures will be verified during export and if successfully verified,
added to the export. If verification fails, the export for the device will
also fail. When the recipient opens the exported files, he/she can
verify the signature (see "Verify signatures" on page 164) in the
XProtect Smart Client
– Player.
If you do not include a digital signature, neither the signature from
the server or the export will be included, and the export will succeed
even if the video or audio has been tampered with.
There are two scenarios where digital signatures are excluded
during the export process:
- If a privacy mask has been added, no digital signatures for the
recording server will be included in the export.
- If the data you are exporting is very close to the current date and
time, the digital signature for the recording server might not be
included for the whole sequence. In this case, only part of the
export will have digital signatures added.
The export process will complete, but when you verify the
signatures, you will see that the digital signatures for the recording
server were removed or partially OK.

viewed and/or listened to from computers that have a standard media player installed. The computer
must also have the codec installed that you use for the export.
