Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Fatwa.ca

Question:

mera cctv security system ka bussienes hai    kya ye kam jayaz hai ya na jyaz hai usme recording bhi hoti hai or delet hojati hai
I have a cctv security systems business. Is such a business permissible or not. The video gets recorded in it and later on is deleted.

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Use of close circuit cameras for security purposes is permissible due to necessity. Hence sale of such cameras and systems is also permissible. The income from such a business will be halal and permissible.[1]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

حفاظت کے لئے سی سی ٹی وی کیمرا کا استعمال جائز ہے۔ تاہم اس قسم کے کیمرے اور حفاظتی آلہ جات کی خرید و فروخت بھی جائز ہے۔ ایسے کام کی آمدنی جائز اور حلال ہو گی
