Spoofing IP based CCTV systems

Spoofing IP based CCTV systems with VideoJak
each month we are starting to see major problems that exist along side the ip systems. end users (the customers) just finding out they have very expensive yearly licence fees to run there ip systems and another problem that has just been released is the following artical from america.

Spoofing IP based CCTV systems
The case against the security of IP based CCTV systems was recently highlighted with the release of a new web tool shown at the hacker conference in Las Vegas. A security assessment tool, Videojak has the ability to both intercept Internet video feeds and eject false 'looped' images.

Similar in concept to Hollywood's "Mission Impossible" where the attacker can hack, monitor and record a CCTV feed (when nothing is happening), then play this back in a loop to hide the actual live feed (presumably while Tom Cruise is lowered down on a black rope).
This tool also provides the ability to intercept video conferencing.

To be on the safe side, if you are using any kind of conferencing facility you should assume that the information can be intercepted. With the popularity of IP streamed video systems we are not sure if our network is compromised or not use analog in the top security place.

Lock Systems Replacement Parts the traditional keys with better and more secure automation features like remote locking and unlocking. In these locks, a latch or bolt is made to cross the opening between the side of the door and the doorframe, thereby preventing access. Digital Door Locks, also known as keyless doors, the locks replace the keys with a digital screen, where you can put numeric digits as a code.
