Logitech announced that its security surveillance system has been updated to make it easier for you access your recorded videos, Logitech Alert has support for Dropbox and this means that videos recorded with your Logitech Alert camera will be stored on your camera, on your computer, and can be stored in the cloud via Dropbox as well, which is a great news for Logitech Alert HD digital video security system users. Packages are available and come with 2GB of storage for free, 50GB for $10 per month or 100GB for $20 per month. Logitech isn't exactly giving away the service, but when you consider that a bare-bones Alert system costs $300, those virtual add-ons sound a bit more reasonable and if you're an Alert owner and want to take advantage of the new integration, the update's available to download now.

Logitech Alert HD digital video security system helps you watch over the people and you can now opt to have secure remote storage for your Logitech Alert videos. With Dropbox in addition to existing Logitech Alert on-camera video storage and PC video backup, you now have an additional storage option that gives you even more piece of mind. Whether at home or on the road, Dropbox's automatic backup and password protection helps ensure that the Logitech Alert HD videos backed up to your PC are automatically and safely uploaded to the cloud. Dropbox uses the same security methods as banks for data transfer and storage – adding that additional layer of data protection – so you can be confident saved videos will remain protected and private. Logitech Alert users can access a bevy of Dropbox storage packages – ranging from an initial free service for up to 2 GBs to an upgraded 50 GB service for $9.99 per month and 100 GBs for $19.99 per month. Once you sign up for an account and download Dropbox, simply configure your storage settings within Logitech Alert Commander and the Dropbox software. As long as both Dropbox and Logitech Alert Commander are running, Logitech Alert footage will automatically sync with your Dropbox account transferring and storing security video files.
