Secure passwords
Important
Axis devices send the initially set password in clear text over the network. To protect your device after the first login, set
up a secure and encrypted HTTPS connection and then change the password.
The device password is the primary protection for your data and services. Axis devices do not impose a password policy as they
may be used in various types of installations.
To protect your data we strongly recommend that you:
•
Use a password with at least 8 characters, preferably created by a password generator.
•
Don't expose the password.
•
Change the password at a recurring interval, at least once a year.
Set a new password for the root account
Important
The default administrator username is root. If the password for root is lost, reset the device to factory default settings. See
1. Type a password. Follow the instructions about secure passwords. See Secure passwords on page 8 .
2. Retype the password to confirm the spelling.
3. Click Create login. The password has now been configured.
