Passwords: Securing the system

Unauthorized users may try to access consumer video security systems. You should create a new username and password the first time you access the system.

To keep the system secure from unauthorized users we recommend:

  • ​Use strong passwords, ones that have a combination of numbers and letters.
  • Change passwords periodically.
  • Use a strong encryption setting on the router (e.g., WAP or WAP2).
  • Change the default password to a unique password for routers / modems as they are the gateway to all connected devices on home / local networks.
