National Security Threat: Inexpensive Imported Surveillance Recorders

Low-cost DVRs, NVRs and related surveillance devices imported from overseas pose one of the most serious national security risks to American homes and businesses. Because they’re built with minimal cybersecurity safeguards and rarely updated, these recorders can be hijacked remotely—often from halfway around the world.

Importantly, customers or integrators who install and use these inexpensive overseas devices are themselves unknowingly are one of the largest national security threats from within the USA.

Hidden Backdoors and Unpatched Vulnerabilities

Many bargain-basement recorders come loaded with undocumented maintenance ports or default passwords that attackers can exploit. Worse, manufacturers frequently abandon support soon after sale, leaving critical flaws unpatched and wide open for intrusion.

How Attackers Leverage Compromised Recorders

• Remote Video Feed Hijacking: Malicious actors can view or manipulate your live and archived footage without your knowledge.
• Network Pivoting: Once inside your recorder, hackers often gain a foothold on your entire LAN—threatening PCs, servers and IoT devices.
• Botnet Recruitment: Infected units can become part of large botnets, launching DDoS campaigns against critical infrastructure.
