The tremendous loss of lives and properties that may be attributed to criminals in recent times worldwide has become a source of worry to all and sundry. The situation has come to the alarming rate that the authority has sought for the immediate means of checkmating it without delay. Therefore, this work centers on the design and implementation of an Internet Protocol (IP)based security surveillance system. It incorporates remote viewing and storage of live video feeds and also remote motion control of the camera, all monitored with the use of a Personal Computer (PC). All the designs in this paper are software based. Hence, the software applications are developed using Visual C-Sharp (C#) programming language to enable the proper monitoring and control of the entire system in which video feeds from the camera are viewed and also recorded on PC. The result obtained showed that with proper implementation, the surveillance system was found to be superb in all its ramifications.
