Be sure to firewall your cameras on your router to only intranet, do not let them access internet or they phone home
(you can let them sync time by capturing ITP requests and running your own service on your router)
- sudobash1 1y agoIt looks like OpenIPC is a replacement firmware. I would assume this means (as long as you trust the OpenIPC authors) that you don't have to firewall them off from the Internet. You ordinarily only have to do that for the sketchy firmware that they come with. Open firmware shouldn't be "phoning home".
- ck2 1y agoYou never know when a zero-day is going to popup and whack your cameras as IOT, part of a DDOS or whatnot But if you've hardened it even a little bit with something as easy as not letting it communicate off your intranet, well that can prevent ugly discoveries later If you need offsite remote camera access you can always carve out a tunnel
