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.

Verify that no one has tampered with the firmware

To make sure that the device has its original Axis firmware, or to take full control of the device after a security attack:
1. Reset to factory default settings. See Reset to factory default settings on page 57.
After the reset, secure boot guarantees the state of the device.
2. Configure and install the device.
