How to access Alta Aware to view Security Cameras

Mark Racine Updated by Mark Racine

Congratulations! Your new camera system has been installed and it's time to get started with the new platform. There are a few things to know before you get started using the cameras.

Before getting started, please review the new BPS circular on video footage and recording so you know the protocols for viewing surveillance cameras. Please note the following;
1. Duplicating video footage outside of the system (i.e. using a cell phone to record your screen) is strictly prohibited. All footage should be kept within the platform unless necessary for student/staff records.
2. All actions within the system, including view a live or recorded footage, are recorded.
3. Providing someone access to your account is strictly prohibited under the BPS AUP.
4. All external viewing of live or recorded video footage must be approved by the BPS Legal Advisor.

Logging into Alta Aware for the first time;

  1. Access is granted by the BPS Facilities Department. Typically this will be done at the time of the camera installation but school principals may request additional users from Facilities.
  2. Once your access is granted, visit https://bps.na1.aware.avasecurity.com and click the Sign in with SSO button. This will allow you into the platform but your initial access will be limited.
  3. After your first login, the BPS Facilities Department will be able to update your permission so that you may view live or recorded video for your building.
