Federal Trade Commission sued D Link earlier this month for allegedly poor security in its routers and security cameras. The remaining cameras — the Netatmo Welcome, the Smartfrog Cam and the Withings Home — all got passable marks, with a mix of "secured," "vulnerable" and partially vulnerable features. The exact minutiae of each model are not interesting unless you happen to own one of those particular cameras, but issues ranged from "unsecured transmission of live preview image" to "firmware update transmitted unencrypted. " These cameras may not exactly invite cybercriminals into your home, but they don't do everything in their power to keep the criminals out, either. This is not the only instance in which home security cameras have recently come under fire for poor security. Last week, a group of researchers unearthed a huge flaw in the Samsung SmartCam SNH 1011's software, which the researchers believe may affect the entire Samsung SmartCam line. A company called Hanwha Techwin licenses the Samsung name to produce these cameras. It's possible that the Samsung SmartCam HD, a model that we've reviewed, is affeceted. Cheapo cameras from no name manufacturers are even worse, with some having flaws so egregious that researchers recommended that users literally toss them in the garbage. Unsecured IP security cameras can provide cybercriminals not only with not only video, but usually sound and still photos as well, of your home or office. If that weren't reason enough to choose a secure camera, unencrypted transmissions could also leak your Wi Fi password or router credentials, giving an attacker complete control over your home network.

What to Expect from the 8 Kinds of Home Security CamerasPeople who ask, “What’s the best security camera system for home?” may not realize that the answer depends on their preferences. Knowing the different kinds of security cameras must be your first priority before purchasing one of them. Vandal proof Security CameraThe vandal proof security camera is the best security camera system for home. It cannot be tampered because it does not have exposed wires. The wires are tucked inside the camera’s covering. Its lens is covered with a thick layer of protective polycarbonate plastic or glass. The protective plastic or glass encloses the camera to prevent people from breaking it. The camera may be weatherproof so that it can be used for outdoors. Pinhole Security CameraThe pinhole security camera has a very small lens. It may be powered by batteries or a DC power supply. More than one receiver can operate the camera.
