- Residents in the Birdland neighborhood just west of Serra Mesa say their home security cameras have been hacked. CBS 8 reached out to a cybersecurity expert to find out how to prevent this from happening to you.
FULL STORY: www.cbs8.com/a...
- Keep software up to date by applying latest software updates
- Use strong passwords (combination of capitalization, numbers and special characters)
- Use multifactor authentication (this is definitely a must have)
- If your WiFi Router has a a default password, make sure you change that
- If your WiFi has a password given by (AT&T or Cox), please change your password.
- if using the web make sure you are using HTTPS websites only.
I am also a CyberSecurity Engineer :) located here in SD. I hope that helps!
None of that is going to help. They need to use 802.11w on their home wireless router.
Ring is definitely an auxiliary security tool! Use hardwire cams and develop neighbor relationships and be aggressive when you catch any potential tresspassers!
Legit. Use cctv. Dont buy into this b.s same them vpn service
Drug people hacking my Doorbell Camera.I want it stopped
I doubt it was a hack of multiple cameras I would ask a different expert and describe what happened more clearly.
agree
Sounds like a wirless signal jammer to me. Hacking two routers loo not a chance!!
@@real_wakawakaIt's not a jammer, the wireless clients (cameras) are being deauthenticated from the access point
Or was she simply de-authenticating them from the router or maybe jamming the WiFi frequencies?
This is what I am suspecting. My question would be how to prevent it....
@@vic4602 Don't use a wifi camera use a cabled version.
It's a deauth attack, access point isn't using 802.11w
I would think you're right. She's got the counter wifi going.
After my home was robbed the thief kept coming back. One night the camera set off a human was detected then while i was on the call with dispatch all 3 cameras shut off. It appeared they have a way to scramble the wireless net. I was on that call for 30 minutes before the sheriffs arrived. Then all they said was well if he comes back call us! Wtf kind of shasta county sheriff office in calif sucks! Im better off setting up a post take care of the theives my damn self same as most of our county feels the same way! Corruption is real
Get a hardwired system that doesn’t require internet
I had something similar happen 2 months ago. A door-dasher stopped behind a bush before coming into los of our camera.. then the camera glitched and wouldn’t record him when he dropped the food off on the porch.
Had this happen with a delivery not doordash
This is old news hell
might be old to you but not for others!🤡🤡🤡
you can stop hackers by returning the item to amazon and demand a refund . i put up new camers not ring door bell
This need to be discontinued
Cameras are false security but better than nothing.
You mean to tell me they didn't have passwords or strong passwords or they had out of date software? 🤦 The title made it seem worse than what it was.
yep, exactly what it implied. news won't say the quite part out loud. "hacked" my a$$. title should be: "what happens when you don't use password encryption on your router".
Murader attact kills any wifi camera. If your camera system isn't hard wired it sucks
She's Mrs Bigfoot, not really there LOL....
How about trashing WiFi cameras?
This is not a ring issue, it is a using outdated Wifi standards issue on the wireless router.
Hide your wifi. Wont stop an expert but hobbles the scrubs
what expert is going to these type of neighborhoods?
ring is a JOKE as far as cameras go, the FCC has already fined them and they have been sued as the employees were spying on the customers
😮
This sounds like a hammer not a hack
