IP Cameras are network-connected video surveillance devices that stream and often store footage over IP networks.
Overview
IP Cameras are network-connected video surveillance devices that stream and often store footage over IP networks. They represent a broad IoT-based attack surface, frequently deployed in security-critical settings and sometimes exposed to the internet, making them attractive targets for exploitation to gain footholds, perform reconnaissance, or disrupt operations. Their compromise can enable stealthy surveillance, network pivoting, and cyber-physical impacts, underscoring their significance in cybersecurity.
