The Security of IP-based Video Surveillance Systems
This is an incremental survey for security practitioners and system designers in surveillance domains.
The paper surveys security threats in IP-based video surveillance systems, analyzing threat agents, attack goals, practical attacks, outcomes, and example vectors to address unauthorized access risks.
IP-based Surveillance systems protect industrial facilities, railways, gas stations, and even one's own home. Therefore, unauthorized access to these systems has serious security implications. In this survey, we analyze the system's (1) threat agents, (2) attack goals, (3) practical attacks, (4) possible attack outcomes, and (5) provide example attack vectors.
