To be fair I have seen the same from humans, except they try to doge the blame or hide the issue. *Dodge*

We are Lightspeed, V3.4.3 apparently fixes the issue. I have not seen the isuse or the fix my self.

We have see this across the trust but it has been fixed by updating the filtering solution.

AWS is having a momont today, I don't know if they are connected but it is breaking LightSpeed filtering. We have no Youtube across all our sites.

We use Sigin app with the clubs as a list of staff so the students sign in to visit a club

It's not always the best idea to host your website and hold your DNS at the same company, if there is an issue and you get locked out you have no access to either whilst by holding them seperate you have more options. You also have more admin overhead and potentially more cost so ...

They work well in Banks where the customer can only see the screen from an angle and the teller is sitting one screen, in a normal office with people walking around they are less useful as their will often be people standing behind the monitor looking over the users shoulder and with two big screens it is hard to get the viewing angle right.

The issue often with modern CCTV is the 4k cameras, it takes a lot of graphical grunt to display 16 4k images on a site manager's desktop, either natively or transcoded. I have set up CCTV Terminal servers in the past with a powerful graphics card and lots of RAM for staff to remote into rather than spending on each users desktop.

There are two different issues here I belive. 1. What to back up, as a simple man I would recommend backing up everything. You then don't have to justify why someone's important file that they had saved in a location that was not backup has been lost. 2. Auditing access. This is a harder question to answer. When I started in IT the sysadmin had access to everything and it was just accepted that this was the way it was. We also smoked in the office so a lot has changed since then. You have to risk assess this against a more expensive back up solution or a two person rule for accessing the device.

I reached out to E Marker about four years ago for support setting up their software and they told me that it was a breach of the users contract to run the software on a school PC.

The best process here I think would be to not retain the photo, just a record that it has been seen.
