You could hook up multiple cameras if you wanted to. Now days they have digital security cameras that are linked to an office computer and that computer is the one that is downloading what they are recordining.
you can hookup multiple webcams in usb.
there are softwares to use the webcam as a security camera and record the data on a remote location (so if your computer is stolen, the image of the thief is available)

With additional cameras, u betcha;
Secure Cam
