Security systems in Dubai are governed by requirements set by the relevant security regulator. This page provides plain-language guidance for owners and project teams who want their CCTV project planned in line with applicable requirements, while leaving the final approval to the appropriate authority and the assigned consultants.
Why early planning matters
Adjusting camera count, placement, recording quality and retention after installation is expensive. Planning compliance considerations at design stage avoids rework and keeps the project schedule realistic.
Topics usually reviewed during planning
- Coverage of mandatory zones for the building type.
- Camera resolution and frame-rate suitability.
- Storage retention period.
- Recording integrity, tamper resistance and time synchronisation.
- Access to recorded footage when requested by the authority.
How Ramco Technology Solutions supports compliance planning
- Reviewing project drawings or site conditions.
- Recommending equipment specifications appropriate to the project scope.
- Documenting the design decisions for the consultant or developer file.
- Coordinating with the appointed consultant and authority where required.
