About secure passwords
Important
When setting the initial password, the password is sent in clear text over the network. If there is a risk of network sniffing,
first set up a secure and encrypted HTTPS connection before resetting the passwords.
The device password is the primary protection for the data and services. Axis’ products do not impose a password policy as products
may be used in various types of installations, but to protect your data do the following:
•
Don’t use the default password that comes with the products.
•
Use a password with at least 8 characters, preferably using a password generator.
•
Don’t expose the password.
•
Change password at a recurring interval, at least once a year.
Set a password for the root account
Important
The default administrator user name
root
cannot be deleted. If the password for root is lost, the product must be reset to
the factory default settings.
