The cameras work fine with Linux, you can use any browser to access
them.  What you're looking for is the software to do stuff with the
video.  Incidentally, security cameras are normally used with a DVR and
those DVRs usually run Linux.

So, perhaps you could provide more info on what your requirements are,
so someone here might provide suggestions.
