What is it?
Secluso is a DIY home security camera system built on Raspberry Pi. It streams live video, sends alerts, and lets you open recordings from an Android or iPhone app, with the footage kept out of third-party cloud storage.
The project uses end-to-end encryption between the camera and the phone, and relies on a relay server that the project describes as untrusted. Setup is handled by a desktop tool called Secluso Deploy, which builds a personalized Secluso OS image, generates credentials locally, and provisions the relay over SSH on a Linux VPS. The repository links to a white paper covering forward secrecy and post-compromise security.
Binaries, the deploy tool, the Android app and Secluso OS are published with reproducible build checkers so users can verify releases against the source code.
