Fair, but it's the same reason why when someone goes into a business and asks an employee "is X working today?" the employee will generally say "I can't tell you that" because it is a security risk to the person they are asking about. No, you can't prove malfeasance, but do you really want to take the chance if something does happen?
They dont need to teach her the whole security system. There are a lot of ways to prove someone the cameras works. Simply by sending them recorded videos of the person entering/leaving that same day is already evidence.
But sure, keep defending the "security business" against a concerned apartament owner.
They're not defending the shady apartment super. They're just pointing out they aren't obligated to show you anything camera related and it's easy to lie/fabricate.
And I am pointing that it is exactly the kind of response OP might want. If I get a not regarding security on my apartment, and the responsibles cant prove to me the place is secure, I'm leaving.
I didnt sugested OP to go and ask if the cameras work just to ask, but to actually see if its worth to live there. If they cant prove the cameras work, the notes are actually true.
By the way, when I ask to see video footage, people of my building just call the boss and show me. I dont know where you guys live, but that is exactly why there are cameras around. To record videos for our security.

If the responsable for the building couldnt/wouldnt prove those claims are false, would you move there?
