Integrators Get A Sales Edge With Edge Storage
YARMOUTH, Maine—Steve Gorski has experienced some déjà vu at recent trade shows. As GM Americas for Mobotix, a network camera company that takes a decentralized approach to storage, Gorski has been evangelizing the benefits of storage onboard the camera for a while. Now, he finds that he’s not alone in talking about the benefits of storage on the edge. While each manufacturer’s approach is different, in the past couple of years several video companies have come out with camera offerings that include edge video storage. “Storage on the edge makes a lot of sense,” Gorski said. “It’s been interesting to watch more and more manufacturers decide to do this. … Off the top of my head I can think of three or four.” All Mobotix cameras come with megapixel storage onboard, which isn’t the case with other manufacturers. And the actual onboard storage is only part of Mobotix’s decentralized approach. “If you need more, we have NAS [network attached storage] options,” he said. One of the reasons other manufacturers have started to offer storage on the edge is because of rapidly increasing capacity. Today, you can store “five days of full frame rate recording of high definition video on a … $40 64-gig SD card,” said Fredrik Nilsson, GM Americas for network video manufacturer Axis Communications. Looking ahead, Nilsson surmised that in 2015, that same $40 SD card will be able to hold 30 days of video, in 2018 it will store three months and ten years from now […]

Researcher Finds Major Security Holes In IZON Surveillance Camera
October 26, 2013 — CSO — The IZON surveillance camera sold in Apple Stores and Best Buy outlets is filled with security holes that enable a hacker to easily commandeer the device, a security researcher said. Mark Stanislav, security evangelist for two-factor authentication platform vendor Duo Security, started investigating the camera after buying the Wi-Fi device for his home and discovering it was configured, so anyone could access the device if it’s on the Internet. Stanislav’s findings, presented this week at the Rochester Security Summit in Rochester, N.Y., were startling. With only an IP address for the device, a person could log into the Web interface of any IZON camera, using the default user name and password, which was “user” for both, Stanislav said. Once logged in, a person could view everything the camera sees within the home. Stanislav found the credentials hardcoded in the camera manufactured by Stem Innovation. The IZON is managed through an iPhone or iPad mobile app available for free on Apple’s App Store. Stem Innovation did not respond to requests for comment. Within the mobile app, Stanislav found the hardcoded credentials for administration privileges, which means a person could set alerts and make other configuration changes. The camera has a motion and an audio sensor that can be turned on when people are away from their homes. The purpose of the credentials stored in the app is to perform firmware updates. However, there are certainly tradeoffs in security. “This camera was (according to Stem […]

Axis Communications GM: Why IP-Camera Surveillance Matters
Despite its moniker as an old technology, surveillance cameras continue to be deployed by SMBs and enterprises alike to help keep an eye on things. Moreover, the invention of the network camera served to propel surveillance into the digital age, allowing the technology to maintain its relevance in our heavily networked world of today. To gain a better insight in the use of IP cameras today, we approached Fredrik Nilsson, the general manager for Axis Communications in North America for an one-on-one interview with FierceCIO:TechWatch . In his response, Nilsson explains why IP-based digital surveillance is superior over their analog equivalents and argues why businesses should not settle for consumer-centric IP cameras. Nilsson also shared some recommendations for enterprises looking to deploy IP cameras. FCIO : CCTV cameras have been around for a long time. What has changed over the years? CCTV has been around for half a century. At first it was mostly used for deterrence by installing big obtrusive analog cameras. But frankly the last true innovation in analog CCTV was the addition of color video. The first network camera was invented (by Axis Communications) in 1996, and adoption in the security industry began in the early 2000s. Over the last decade the industry has undergone a technology shift from analog to IP video–with 2014 being the first year that IP is expected to overtake analog sales–and the emergence of software and storage players moved us into the forensics phase. But today no one wants a camera. They […]
