Security considerations
To prevent unauthorized access to cameras and recordings, keep the following in mind:
• Use strong passwords for all network devices (cameras, video encoders and auxiliary devices).
• Install AXIS Camera Station server, cameras, video encoders, and auxiliary devices on a secure network separated
from the office network. AXIS Camera Station client can be installed on a computer on another network, for example
a network with Internet access.
• Ensure all users have strong passwords. Using Windows Active Directory a high level of security can be implemented.
