Cybersecurity Recommendations I
Cybersecurity Recommendations
Mandatory actions to be taken towards cybersecurity
1. Change Passwords and Use Strong Passwords:
The number one reason systems get “hacked” is due to having weak or default passwords. It is
recommended to change default passwords immediately and choose a strong password
whenever possible. A strong password should be made up of at least 8 characters and a
combination of special characters, numbers, and upper and lower case letters.
2. Update Firmware
As is standard procedure in the tech-industry, we recommend keeping NVR, DVR, and IP
camera firmware up-to-date to ensure the system is current with the latest security patches and
fixes.
“Nice to have” recommendations to improve your network security
1. Change Passwords Regularly
Regularly change the credentials to your devices to help ensure that only authorized users are
able to access the system.
2. Change Default HTTP and TCP Ports:
● Change default HTTP and TCP ports for systems. These are the two ports used to
communicate and to view video feeds remotely.
● These ports can be changed to any set of numbers between 1025-65535. Avoiding the
default ports reduces the risk of outsiders being able to guess which ports you are using.
3. Enable HTTPS/SSL:
Set up an SSL Certificate to enable HTTPS. This will encrypt all communication between your
devices and recorder.
4. Enable IP Filter:
Enabling your IP filter will prevent everyone, except those with specified IP addresses, from
accessing the system.
5. Change ONVIF Password:
On older IP Camera firmware, the ONVIF password does not change when you change the
system’s credentials. You will need to either update the camera’s firmware to the latest revision
or manually change the ONVIF password.
6. Forward Only Ports You Need:

Cybersecurity Recommendations II
● Only forward the HTTP and TCP ports that you need to use. Do not forward a huge range of
numbers to the device. Do not DMZ the device's IP address.
● You do not need to forward any ports for individual cameras if they are all connected to a
recorder on site; just the NVR is needed.
7. Limit Features of Guest Accounts:
If your system is set up for multiple users, ensure that each user only has rights to features and
functions they need to use to perform their job.
8. UPnP:
● UPnP will automatically try to forward ports in your router or modem. Normally this would be a
good thing. However, if your system automatically forwards the ports and you leave the
credentials defaulted, you may end up with unwanted visitors.
● If you manually forwarded the HTTP and TCP ports in your router/modem, this feature should
be turned off regardless. Disabling UPnP is recommended when the function is not used in real
applications.
9. SNMP:
Disable SNMP if you are not using it. If you are using SNMP, you should do so only temporarily,
for tracing and testing purposes only.
10. Multicast:
Multicast is used to share video streams between two recorders. Currently there are no known
issues involving Multicast, but if you are not using this feature, deactivation can enhance your
network security.
11. Check the Log:
If you suspect that someone has gained unauthorized access to your system, you can check
the system log. The system log will show you which IP addresses were used to login to your
system and what was accessed.
12. Physically Lock Down the Device:
Ideally, you want to prevent any unauthorized physical access to your system. The best way to
achieve this is to install the recorder in a lockbox, locking server rack, or in a room that is
behind a lock and key.
13. Connect IP Cameras to the PoE Ports on the Back of an NVR:
Cameras connected to the PoE ports on the back of an NVR are isolated from the outside world
and cannot be accessed directly.
14. Isolate NVR and IP Camera Network
The network your NVR and IP camera resides on should not be the same network as your
public computer network. This will prevent any visitors or unwanted guests from getting access
to the same network the security system needs in order to function properly.

Config Tool
You can download the "ConfigTool" and perform device initialization, IP address modification
and system upgrading for multiple devices at the same time. For the detailed information, see
the corresponding user's manual.
Configuring VTO
Connect the VTO to your PC with network cable, and for first time login, you need to create a
new password for the web interface.
4.3.1 Initialization
The default IP address of VTO is 192.168.1.110, and make sure the PC is in the same network
segment as the VTO.
Connect the VTO to power source, and then boot it up.
Open the internet browser on the PC, then enter the default IP address of the VTO in
the address bar, and then press Enter.
The Device Init interface is displayed. See Figure 4-1.

Configuration 9
Device initialization
Enter and confirm the password, and then click Next.
The Email setting interface is displayed.
Select the Email check box, and then enter your Email address. This Email address
can be used to reset the password, and it is recommended to finish this setting.
Click Next. The initialization succeeded.
Click OK.
The login interface is displayed. See Figure 4-2.
Login interface
4.3.2 Configuring VTO Number
The VTO number can be used to differentiate each VTO, and it is normally configured
according to unit or building number.
You can change the number of a VTO when it is not working as SIP server.
The VTO number can contain 5 numbers at most, and it cannot be the same as any room
number.
Log in the web interface of the VTO, and then the main interface is displayed. See
Figure 4-3.

Configuration 10

Enter the network parameters you planed, and then click Save.

Configuration 11
The VTO will reboot, and you need to modify the IP address of your PC to the same
network segment as the VTO to log in again.
4.3.4 Configuring SIP Server
The SIP server is required in the network to transmit intercom protocol, and then all the VTO
and VTH devices connected to the same SIP server can make video call between each other.
You can use VTO device or other servers as SIP server.
Select Network Setting > SIP Server.
The SIP Server interface is displayed. See Figure 4-6.
SIP server
Select the server type you need.
If the VTO you are visiting works as SIP server
Select the Enable check box at SIP Server, and then click Save.
The VTO will reboot, and after rebooting, you can then add VTO and VTH devices
to this VTO. See "4.3.6 Adding VTO Devices and 4.3.7 Adding Room Number."
If the VTO you are visiting does not work as SIP server, do not select the Enable check
box at SIP Server, otherwise the connection will fail.
If other VTO works as SIP server
Select VTO in the Server Type list, and then configure the parameters. See Table
4-1.

If other servers work as SIP server
Select the server type you need in the Server Type list, and then see the
corresponding manual for the detailed configuration.
4.3.5 Configuring Call No. and Group Call
You need to configure call No. on every VTO, and then all the VTO will call the defined room
when you press the call button. On the SIP server, you can enable group call function, and
when calling a master VTH, the extension VTH devices receive the call as well.
Enabling or disabling group call function will erase all the added VTH, so you need to perform
this operation before adding VTO and VTH.
Select Local Setting > Basic.
The device properties are displayed. See Figure 4-7.
Device properties
In the Villa Call No. input box, enter the room number you need to call, and then click
Confirm to save. Repeat this operation on every villa VTO web interface.
Log in the web interface of the SIP server, and then select Local Setting > Basic.
The device properties are displayed. See Figure 4-8.
SIP server device properties
Select the Group Call check box, and then click Confirm.
The VTO will reboot, and when calling a master VTH, the extension VTH devices
receive the call as well.
4.3.6 Adding VTO Devices
You can add VTO devices to the SIP server, and all the VTO devices connected to the same
SIP server can make video call between each other. This section applies to the condition in

Configuration 13
which a VTO device works as SIP server, and if you are using other servers as SIP server, see
the corresponding manual for the detailed configuration.
