Signed Firmware - VIVOTEK Authorized Firmware

VIVOTEK's signed firmware uses digital signatures to verify authenticity, ensuring firmware hasn't been tampered with. Devices validate firmware before installation, while signed certificates and keys encrypt all data to prevent hacker exposure and alteration.

Secure Console - Constant Protected Connection

Building on secure boot, we've enhanced remote access security by disabling SSH and SFTP console access. Only VIVOTEK-authorized, key-based authentication provides system access, creating a safer surveillance connection.

Secure VADP - Enhanced Security for 3rd Party Integration

VIVOTEK Application Development Platform (VADP) enables developers to add custom features to cameras. Secure VADP uses digital signatures and encryption for safer, more reliable third-party integrations.

Secure Boot - Secure from the Beginning

Cameras startup securely step-by-step using VIVOTEK's signed firmware. Secure boot blocks unauthorized or tampered code during startup, protecting against malicious attacks. This ensures safe factory resets and rejects unauthenticated code from compromising the camera system.

Encryption ProtocolsUtilizes TLS 1.2, AES-256-bit encryption for data in transit and at rest, ensuring end-to-end security for transmitted data over the internet.

Automatic UpgradesRegular security testing, automatic software and firmware updates, proactive vulnerability management, and protection against threats.

Understand Your Cyber Risks

To effectively protect your network and devices, it is important to recognize that security ultimately depends on your own risk assessments, configuration decisions, and ongoing maintenance. We strongly recommend that all users:



• Define and apply a strong password policy and immediately change all default passwords.
• Regularly update to the latest firmware to address known bugs and security vulnerabilities.
• Implement the VIVOTEK Security Hardening Guide according to your environment (basic, advanced, or enterprise) to strengthen overall protection.
• Review and act on our Security Advisories to understand and mitigate the risks of known vulnerabilities in a timely manner.


By continuously evaluating your own risk exposure and applying these measures, you can significantly reduce the likelihood and impact of cyberattacks on your network and devices.
