Concerns about the ability of hackers to access live images or retrieve recorded images captured by video surveillance cameras located in security-sensitive areas have been around for a while. Many manufacturers of professional-level cameras have responded to the threat by introducing device network set-up protocols which do not allow for a default password (or one that has consecutive letters or numbers) to be used. However, hackers are likely to continue to look at other ways in which to gain access to data, including via a camera’s ‘back door’.

Regardless of whether it’s for criminal or malicious purposes, or just seen as a challenge by amateur hackers, it’s essential that surveillance system end users’ confidential data is kept secure. This applies just as much to the many thousands of small businesses that entrust video surveillance solutions to protect their assets, people and property as it does for high security and mission-critical end-user applications, such as those for airports, banks, local authorities, Government, the military and the Emergency Services.
