Restricted Devices

Learn what to do when you discover a restricted device in your organization

Updated over a week ago

When a device is restricted, it means that Verkada has determined that this device has been lost or stolen.

How Verkada restricts a device

  1. We alert the Organization Admins (Org Admins) on the organization the device is claimed to.

  2. After 48 hours, the device is removed from the Verkada Command org and blocked from being added to other orgs.
