Cybersecurity  Recommendations

   

II

 

In the event that your social media, bank, email, etc. account is compromised, you would not want 
someone collecting those passwords and trying them out on your video surveillance system. Using a 
different username and password for your security system will make it more difficult for someone to 
guess their way into your system. 

9. Limit Features of Guest Accounts:

 

If your system is set up for multiple users, ensure that each user only has rights to features and 
functions they need to use to perform their job. 

10. UPnP:

 

● UPnP will automatically try to forward ports in your router or modem. Normally this would be a good 
thing. However, if your system automatically forwards the ports and you leave the credentials defaulted, 
you may end up with unwanted visitors. 
● If you manually forwarded the HTTP and TCP ports in your router/modem, this feature should be 
turned off regardless. Disabling UPnP is recommended when the function is not used in real 
applications. 

11. SNMP:

 

Disable SNMP if you are not using it. If you are using SNMP, you should do so only temporarily, for 
tracing and testing purposes only. 

12. Multicast:

 

Multicast is used to share video streams between two recorders. Currently there are no known issues 
involving Multicast, but if you are not using this feature, deactivation can enhance your network security. 

13. Check the Log:

 

If you suspect that someone has gained unauthorized access to your system, you can check the 
system log. The system log will show you which IP addresses were used to login to your system and 
what was accessed. 

14. Physically Lock Down the Device:

 

Ideally, you want to prevent any unauthorized physical access to your system. The best way to achieve 
this is to install the recorder in a lockbox, locking server rack, or in a room that is behind a lock and key.
