Why is Data Security Vital? How gabrielCAM® Hub Protects Projects

Why is data security and access becoming ever more important? And how can gabrielCAM® Hub help you deliver this to your clients?

The Growing Demand for Secure Project Surveillance

Certain surveillance and smart cameras have recently been banned from some Government sites, and many commercial clients are now asking questions around equipment, software and security.

Security and control are essential when project imagery is captured and shared, especially as concerns about data access continue to grow. Clients increasingly expect high standards of data security and access control.

Clients need to be certain that projects are being captured with all due diligence, especially where commercial, operational, public sector or national interests are involved.

It is one thing to capture high-quality project imagery, it is another thing to make sure the right people can access it, use it, share it, and manage it properly.

Granular Access Control with gabrielCAM® Hub

Our gabrielCAM® Hub has been built through conversations with many clients over the years, with robust and practical access control at its core.

Through role-based access control, Organisation Owners can manage exactly who can view, edit, manage, or share project content. Not every stakeholder needs the same level of access.

Some users need full administration rights. Some need to manage content. Some need to edit or create outputs. Others may only need view-only access to check progress, review updates, or keep informed. Sometimes access needs to be withdrawn or changed. So control is paramount.

Right users. Right roles. Right access.

Safe Collaboration Across Project Stakeholders

This helps project teams share visibility without losing control. It also supports the reality of modern projects, where information may be shared across contractors, clients, consultants, internal teams, external stakeholders, marketing teams, board members, and public audiences.

Where wider visibility is needed, gabrielCAM® Hub can support public project embedding, making it easier to share live project views securely on websites or stakeholder portals. For more sensitive sites, feed delay options provide another layer of protection, helping teams control what is seen, and when.

Two-factor authentication is also now being rolled out across our wider platform environment, adding another layer of account protection where required.

This matters because construction camera systems are no longer just cameras. They are becoming part of the project information ecosystem. They support progress monitoring, reporting, communication, accountability and visual evidence. So the platform behind the camera needs to manage access properly.

At gabrielCAM®, we believe visibility should not mean loss of control. Project teams should be able to share what needs to be shared, with the people who need to see it, in the way that suits the project.

So you can satisfy your clients’ requirements for robust security coupled with practical access.
