Screen & Webcam Recording

Screens are recorded continuously or on schedule, with the active application overlaid on the footage, a live view to the console, and audio as separate tracks.

The Evidence Layer That Reconstructs Every Session

An activity log tells you what moved — screen, webcam, and audio recording tell you exactly how the session unfolded.

When a security incident occurs, an activity log and intercepted files tell you what moved — but not how the session unfolded. Did the employee paste confidential text from a file and then close it? Did someone speak about proprietary information on a call while simultaneously uploading to a cloud drive? Screen, webcam, and audio recording answer those questions with direct evidence: a timestamped, searchable visual and audio record of every monitored session.

The recording module has been rebuilt around an activity timeline: every clip now carries the active applications and productivity metrics directly inside the footage, and the same timeline shows which applications and websites were in use at any point of the recording — or which one is active right now in live view. Instead of scrubbing through a long clip, an investigator jumps straight to the segment where a specific application was open, which cuts investigation time significantly.

Remote and hybrid work intensifies the need. Without physical oversight, managers and IT security teams have no way to verify whether a distributed employee is genuinely working, or whether an anomaly flagged by a policy alert involved deliberate, accidental, or coerced behaviour. On-premise recording — where footage never leaves your infrastructure — makes that verification possible without exposing employee data to a third-party cloud.

Both IT security and compliance teams and HR managers work within the same Anexet Client Console — security teams through investigation and policy workflows, managers through the User Activity and Reports modules.

Why it matters

  • Activity timeline built into the footage

    Every recording shows the active applications, sites, and productivity metrics for each moment — in playback and in live view — so raw video becomes annotated, searchable evidence.

  • Jump straight to the moment that matters

    Skip directly to the segment where a specific application was in focus instead of scrubbing through a full session, and adjust playback speed to fit the review.

  • Fully on-premise, on every OS

    Screen, webcam, and microphone recording now run on Windows, Linux, and macOS alike, with multichannel audio exported as separate tracks or a single file — and footage never leaves your infrastructure.

What Anexet Records

The recording module now bakes activity context directly into the footage, so every clip doubles as an investigation timeline rather than just a video file.

Screen recording & live view

  • Continuous desktop recording

    Standard

    The endpoint agent records the screen at a configured quality and frame rate; footage is stored on your on-premise server and indexed for search.

  • Live view (real-time monitoring)

    Standard

    A security officer can open a live preview of any monitored workstation directly from the console without installing additional tools.

    Learn more
  • Historical playback with quick jump by application

    Standard

    Stored recordings are accessible from the User Activity section; jump straight to the segment where a specific application was open instead of scrubbing through the whole clip, cutting investigation time.

  • Playback speed control

    Standard

    Speed up review of long idle periods or slow down critical moments without losing sync with the activity timeline.

  • Activity timeline & productivity overlay

    Standard

    Footage shows the active application, visited sites, and productivity metrics for each moment — both in stored playback and in live view — turning raw video into annotated, searchable evidence.

Webcam capture

  • Webcam video capture on schedule

    Standard

    The agent records video from the device webcam at configured intervals or on a policy trigger, in a chosen quality and in color or grayscale; footage is stored with the rest of the session data.

  • Webcam still snapshots

    Advanced

    The agent captures individual still images from the webcam at a minimum interval of 60 seconds, at a chosen resolution up to 1080p — useful for periodic presence checks without the storage overhead of continuous video.

Multichannel audio recording

  • Microphone recording

    Standard

    Captures audio from the workstation microphone in real-time monitoring mode and as a scheduled recording track, on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

    Learn more
  • Speaker / system audio recording

    Standard

    Captures audio output from the device speakers as a separate channel, covering calls, video conferences, and media playback.

    Learn more
  • Separate audio tracks or single file

    Standard

    Multichannel audio is stored as individual tracks or merged into one file; the reviewer chooses the preferred microphone when multiple input devices are present.

  • Preferred microphone selection

    Standard

    When a workstation has more than one audio input, the administrator designates which device to prioritise for recording.

On-Premise Recording — Your Data Never Leaves Your Infrastructure

The Anexet endpoint agent runs silently on Windows, Linux, and macOS workstations — including Apple Silicon (ARM64). It captures screen frames, webcam frames, and audio channels at configured quality settings and schedules, with no perceptible impact on normal workstation operation. All captured footage and audio are transmitted over the internal network to the Anexet Data Processing Server on your own infrastructure and indexed against the user activity timeline.

Screen recording, webcam capture, and microphone recording now run natively on the macOS agent, alongside Windows and Linux, so coverage no longer depends on which operating system an employee uses.

Anexet is deployed entirely on-premise. All recordings, audio tracks, and screenshots remain on your server. Scinero Software Limited, the vendor, has no access to your systems or any captured data — making screen and audio recording viable even under strict data-sovereignty or insider-threat policies.

How Screen & Audio Recording Works

Four steps from endpoint capture to a searchable, evidence-ready record.

A lightweight Anexet agent deployed to Windows, Linux, or macOS captures screen frames, webcam frames, and audio channels at the configured quality and schedule — with no perceptible impact on the workstation.

1

As footage is captured, the agent builds an activity timeline alongside it, recording which applications and websites were in use at each moment and rolling up productivity metrics for the session.

2

Captured footage, audio, and the activity timeline are transmitted over the internal network to the Anexet Data Processing Server on your infrastructure; nothing is uploaded to the vendor or any external service.

3

From the Client Console, a security officer or authorised manager opens the User Activity section, jumps straight to the segment where a given application was open, adjusts playback speed, launches live view, or exports the recording and its multichannel audio — as separate tracks or a single file — for an investigation case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about screen, webcam, and audio recording in Anexet.

What exactly is captured during a screen recording session?

The Anexet agent records full desktop video at a configured quality and frame rate, with the active application, visited websites, and productivity metrics overlaid directly in the footage — both during live view and in stored playback. Simultaneously, the agent can record microphone audio and speaker output as separate tracks, and capture webcam video on a schedule. All data is stored on your on-premise server.

Both options are available. You can configure continuous recording, schedule-based recording (for example, during working hours only), or — on Advanced and Premium — use security policy rules to trigger a recording session automatically when a specific event or application pattern is detected.

Yes — Anexet is deployed entirely on your own infrastructure. All recordings, audio tracks, and screenshots remain on your server. Scinero Software Limited, the vendor, has no access to your systems, your recordings, or any captured data.

Screen recording, live view, historical playback, and multichannel audio (microphone and speakers) are included from the Standard plan. Webcam still snapshots require Advanced. Speech recognition for audio transcription and AI-assisted analysis of recordings require Premium.

Yes. The Anexet endpoint agent supports Windows, Linux, and macOS — including Apple Silicon (ARM64). Screen recording, webcam capture, and microphone recording all work natively on macOS, alongside Windows and Linux. Monitoring covers desktop and laptop workstations; there are no mobile agents.

Yes. The endpoint agent operates wherever the workstation is — office, home, or a remote location. Screen, webcam, and audio capture work identically over a corporate VPN or a standard internet connection, provided the agent can reach your on-premise Anexet server.

Yes, with optional facial recognition on top of webcam capture. Each frame is compared against a reference face vector for the account, and the console can flag or block the session when an unauthorized person is present or the authorized user is missing from the frame. Facial recognition requires face vectors to be enrolled for user accounts in advance.

If the webcam is busy — for example, during a Zoom or Teams call — the agent cannot access it and a scheduled webcam recording is skipped for that window. Conversely, while the agent is actively recording from the webcam, other applications cannot access it at the same time.

Yes. Every recording carries an activity timeline showing which applications and websites were in use at any given moment — in stored playback and in live view alike — along with productivity metrics for that session. Instead of scrubbing through the whole clip, you can jump straight to the segment where a specific application was open, which significantly cuts down investigation time.

Yes to both. Microphone and speaker audio can be exported as separate tracks or merged into a single file, whichever suits your investigation workflow. Playback speed is adjustable as well, so you can speed through idle stretches or slow down a critical moment without losing sync with the activity timeline.
