Not on this one. The SD card is quick to access right on the side of the unit and isn’t encrypted. I never use the WiFi features, but since the supercap only has a few seconds of battery life and you’ll be a moving target for the WiFi signal, I can’t imagine there’d be too many people clever enough to steal things off it.
You could easily pop out the SD card every time you left the car.
Not ideal, but you could make the partition small so it only holds a few minutes of footage so all they get is footage from what happens during an accident or during a stop. I did some searching and it seems the only approach to “secure footage” is through 3rd-party apps which… you know…
There are dash cam systems that support encryption, and other cool features like two mirror copies made at the same time… but not the retail systems, the commercial fleet mdvr systems, they tend to be bulkier, and more expensive (like 1-2k USD)
Are recordings password protected?

Not worried about hacking it. I don’t want LEO to have access without my permission in the event of an incident.
