Are your home security cameras vulnerable to hacking? - CNET

@voltronic Probably natively - which is why they're on their own separate WiFi network, that only send video to an in-home server (which then makes it available via secure protocols,) and cannot directly access the internet.

Oh, and all of them are on the exterior of the house, none inside where they could hear inside conversations.

@ehurtley
You're doing it much better than I am. I have a Wyze cam that's in the living room to monitor the dogs. It's on a separate VLAN, but otherwise I use their remote access app.

@voltronic I don't use Wyze's own app, I have their beta firmware with RTSP enabled, sending it to an in-house server, which has security I can control. (That server also runs HomeBridge to make the cameras appear in Apple's HomeKit ecosystem, which has known-decent security. That server (a Mac mini in a cabinet) acts as "bridge" for all my IOT devices. If I find something going wrong, I can just turn off that server until I can investigate, instead of dealing with multiple separate devices.)

@ehurtley
Oh, I'll have to check this out, thanks! It looks like they just added RTSP support in September.
