What's more secure for internet cctv - PC based or standalon

Hello,

 

For a CCTV system that would be monitored via the Internet what is more secure from outside hacking - PC based or standalone systems?

The most secure way would be setting up a VPN server on the router the system is connected to. (If your router supports it.)

So with a VPN it wouldn't matter if it's a standalone or PC-based?

No, it doesn't matter, you can access either system through the VPN.
