Introduction

Active Defense is a proactive security feature in IP cameras that uses AI detection to identify threats—such as intrusion or loitering—and instantly triggers deterrents like flashing lights, voice warnings, or sirens. It helps prevent incidents in real time, reducing risks before they escalate.

This article introduces how to configure Active Defense on VIGI NVR. Be aware that at least one VIGI IPC is needed, since NVR itself cannot accomplish active defense on its own.
