A LAN could be zero machines. Point is IP addresses are not routable on the public internet.
That's not really the point. The footage from the camera has to be stored somewhere. Either locally or remotely. If it's remote, there's a chance of it leaking. If it's local, the machine it's on could get stolen. So again, I don't know what the solution is.
I was just being a pedant about your definition of LAN. :)
For a non-pedantic definition, yours is fine.
If you're worried about physical theft then you'll want to enable encryption on the storage drives.
