from accessing the system.
5. Change ONVIF Password:
On older IP Camera firmware, the ONVIF password does not change when you change
the system’s credentials. You will need to either update the camera’s firmware to the latest
revision or manually change the ONVIF password.
6. Forward Only Ports You Need:
● Only forward the HTTP and TCP ports that you need to use. Do not forward a huge
range of numbers to the device. Do not DMZ the device's IP address.
● You do not need to forward any ports for individual cameras if they are all connected to a
recorder on site; just the NVR is needed.
7. Disable Auto-Login on SmartPSS:
Those using SmartPSS to view their system and on a computer that is used by multiple
people should disable auto-login. This adds a layer of security to prevent users without the
appropriate credentials from accessing the system.
8. Use a Different Username and Password for SmartPSS:
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
