As IoT (Internet of Things) devices such as IP surveillance cameras continue to come online in large numbers, they have become major targets to hacking and data leaks.

IP CCTV cameras are particularly vulnerable to hacking because:
 
  • 24/7/365 non-stop connection to the internet
  • CCTV systems typically contain processors with high computing power, and are thus vulnerable to CPU hi-jack attacks
  • System management staff lack cyber security knowledge
  • Difficulty in detecting planted malware
  • Users don’t frequently change their passwords, and/or use weak passwords
To counter these cyber threats, VIVOTEK offer a Lifetime Cyber security Management Solution, which includes:
  • A front- to back-end system with cyber security management solution
  • Cyber security protection with Trend Micro IoT Security

Here’s the detail
