Physical Compromise
As obvious as such security compromises may seem, they include:
• Vandalism to Multi-Media units or other hardware. See Tamper Detection on page 131
for more information.
• Power outages beyond the range of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
• Placing cameras where direct sunlight, dew, frost or reflections can hamper visibility.
• Placing cameras at an outside window and in a room that remains lit during evenings.
Reflection from the window can hamper outside visibility.
• Objects placed to obstruct a camera’s view. See Tamper Detection on page 131 .
Compromising Video Recording
Setting the Recording of a camera to OFF. Video is not recorded when Recording of a
camera is turned OFF. This is easy to detect, each camera shows a recording meter during
a Live Session (see
Figure 10-10 ).
Figure 10-10 Identifying Camera Recording Status
If an operator turns Recording to OFF, Live viewing would still work but no recordings would
be available to review if there was an incident. Such an abuse can be traced, as explained
in
Tracing Events on page 210 . See also Cameras on page 75 .
Table 10-4 Security Situations
Situation Preventative and / or Last Resort Measures
Vandalism • Schedule onsite equipment inspections.
• Use access control to control Multi-Media unit access.
Vandalism or
operator error • Schedule regular connections to each Multi-Media unit in
your security system.
Using many Multi
databases • Through training, discourage the use of many Multi dbs.
Using more than one db and using different system
passwords is beyond the product’s design and is unsafe.
• As a last resort, use the last valid password utility, as
explained in Last Valid Password on page 192 .
Breach of trust • Refrain from communicating a system password to a Multi
SA running another Rapid Eye system.
• Ask security personnel to exercise vigilance if operators
have accounts with enough rights to jeopardize the data on
a Multi-Media unit.
• As a last resort, contact Multi technical support for help, as
explained in For Questions on page 33 .
