tbh I wouldn't call it really oldschool. 9/10 times a wired solution is more advanced compared to the wireless version. Wireless is only dominant in the consumer market for ease of integration.
Same way. The really important stuff is very well secured & hardened. Old school isn't always outmoded. Now more than ever cost is a huge issue & only going to get much worse...that brings up the issue of security again doesn't it ?
@@badgermacleod2037 exactly, the bad guys are getting smarter and more desperate and violent, so one has to always be a step ahead of them and always being able to protect & defend.
I literally watched the surveillance video of a guy with no face coverings of any kind just walk up to my bike which was locked to a bike rack at a public transit station in the middle of a large city, pick up my bike, twist it around, and pop the lock off and walk away with my bike. The transit cop showed me the video, and told me flat out that there was no way they would ever find my bike or the guy that stole it. Security cameras are useless. They don’t stop people from committing crimes, and they rarely help you catch someone who commits a crime against you.
For those who can only use WiFi cameras and can't hardwire it.. I suggest getting cameras where you can store footage on a local MICRO SD card. It's the very last resort of having some video recording unless someone rips off the camera from your wall. Get the highest Micro SD card capacity the camera allows so you can save as much footage as possible even if the wifi is down. But if you have a power outage, that's another issue. Those hip trendy cameras seem to only save video to the cloud and that requires Wifi, let alone a friggin subscription. Get one that has a Sd slot!
45 years in security and I will NEVER recommend wireless cameras of any type except for portable point observations. Hardwire with backup, out of sight out of mind. Covert is better and tell the customers as little as possible about the technical side. The less they know the less they can tell.
Hi how to jam or disable wired security cameras in a district does a military jammer does something like that or should we destroy the electricity power of the area ? As u are a professional what is your advice to me ?and another question is can we disable the police cameras I wanna be invisible where I go in a width of 1000 meters at least I searched and found that a military jammer can do it but only for wireless unfortunately what's your advice sir?
@@Josh-py9rq Not really. Criminals always target the easiest score first. If they see any cameras, even ones that might not be operational, they simply move onto the next target with no visible cameras. If they really must break into your facility, they will - it does not matter how many cameras or locks or alarms you have enabled.
This is why you choose cameras with internal sd-card adapter and keep recording offline no matter the NVR, WiFi, cloud or phone application status. It only costs 15$-20$ more for each sd-card but as a backup recorder its absolutely worth it! Even if they stole the local NVR device, you can still download the footage straight from the cameras! 😉
@@bryanbatton01 Price range? DIY systems vary GREATLY from price to quality. Many DIY systems are outright scams or garbage compared to commercial cameras as well.[ie "4k" cameras that are upscaled 1080p producing a worse image than if it were just 1080p]
I read a post a week ago asking how thieves had broken into his friends house and the wifi cameras stopped recording just before it happened. I don't know if the power was turned off or this attack was responsible, now I'm thinking the latter.
definately the latter !! i dont know why anyone would have wifi cameras these days ( only have wired cameras) These watches are really expensive seeing you could do the same with an esp32
I have changed over to POE (power over ethernet) when I added more cameras since even most wireless cameras need power run anyway. Much easier to run an ethernet cable. My POE switch and computer server are both hard wired to router. I then also have a UPS that everything plugs into, so if power was cut it still works for about 25 mins.
All my cameras are hardwired to a POE switch. Switch hardwired to the router. Then my DVR has a hardwire direct to the router. Top security and minimal lag.
Funny. My security cameras have a bright red LED that comes on when they d/c from the network. I always thought that was a dumb idea and now I see I was right. It's a confirmation LED for a thief.
My advice: blot out the light with some color matching epoxy and put a MicroSD card in if it has a slot. Also consider getting wired cameras. Yeah, they're not full proof either but better than wireless. Especially when using shielded cable (EMP type jammers can disable them while the batteries last, and have a better chance of succeeding if the cable's not shielded).
@@GUITARSTUFF911 At least from a distance. They can always do the old fashioned approach it with a mask and spray paint the lens, but the neighbors are more likely to notice and will still get a height and weight estimate in most cases.
"what's scary" is that people think Wifi is robust enough for a security system. Wifi is EASILY interfered with, this single proof-of-concept is just the latest of the ways to handle it. If you have a camera, and you want it to be more than decoration, then wire it in. Unfortunately I also understand how hard it is to wire in many of the cameras, in placed like apartments, for the places that HAVE to have wireless, it HAS to have local storage, or back to decoration status.
@@contytub That doesn't solve the problem. Just like the wireless door switches that use 433mhz ISM band, get a 25 dollar boafeng hand held and you can just press the tx button while opening the door, close the door and release the button, your alarm system doesn't trigger.
@Liron, your videos are great. Education is important and security is complex. The low end systems target people who don't have a technical background and you make it easy for people to understand. Your contribution is excellent and much needed.
2.4ghz is cheaper, but also has much better range than 5ghz. Smart cameras use it because they're typically further from access points than other devices.
@@Rancid_Ninja Not everywhere, standard networks with a single router are and will always be faster than mesh networks. Yeah for corporate environments they are a dime a dozen, but for homes? They're great if you aren't terribly concerned about latency, but if you do something like game regularly, potentially even in something like an E-Sports tourney, you'll want either a dedicated WiFi 6 connection for your computer or to have it directly hardwired into the modem. Mesh networks will just slow it down
In the EU the CCTV immunity EMC standard EN50130-4 is legally required and would not be compliant with a WIFI connection. The signal could easily be jammed. Most wifi cameras should not be called "security" cameras, because they have not been tested to this standard and have used the generic EN55022 immunity standard, they are simply web cams or video monitors and should not be sold for security purposes, however many are and there is simply no policing, or noone really knows this is going on.
I don’t understand why night vision camera manufacturers use 850nm infrared lights instead of 940nm. 940nm LEDs are a lot less visible to the human eye than 850nm. It makes it harder to spot your cameras at night unless they have night vision optics.
This attack, along with jammers are two reasons I always insisted on old-fashioned ethernet for my security system. With POe connected to UPS, nothing will get missed.
@@margaretjohnston2858 PoE is power over ethernet. It is a way to power things over ethernet cable as it implies. You need a switch that has that feature or a PoE injector. A UPS is a uninterruptable power supply. It is basically a small battery backup. So if the power goes out whatever you have plugged into it will stay on without interruption.
😂 lol like this device matters in the slightest. All it means is that you can't view live, which you're unlikely to be doing anyway. Most wifi cameras have an SD card in them so they have to steal that too.
You are so kind to let people know this. I know an evil woman who said she has a spare master key and can get into any apartment. People can steal from you. Do not keep cash in the home. These theives know where you keep things. They befriend you and ask all sorts of questions once they get your trust. They betray you without remorse and steal.
Apparently some hotels got in trouble for using wifi de-authorisers to target people who brought their own mobile wifi hotspots so that they would have to pay extra to use the hotel provided internet instead
The use of 2.4GHz band isn't exclusively to keep costs down. Surveillance systems are typically spread out around the entire home, and using 2.4GHz band makes it easier to maintain a useful level of connectivity to devices without the use of wifi repeaters. 5GHz is for dense wide-open usage such as office spaces, as the larger bandwidth does not go through walls, floors, windows, etc. as easily. Further, it appears that these cameras did not have analytics set up properly. The amount of movement should have alerted the homeowner before the burglary.
The "known vulnerability" has been known by anyone who knows anything about radio long before WiFi even existed. that vulnerability is that any radio signals can easily be jammed! So don't rely on wireless anything for security. The only possible workaround is if your security equipment checks in with remote monitoring every 30 seconds or so and if more than two or three check ins are missed, it alerts whoever needs to be alerted.
3+ years supervising call center of an alarm company... So many customers ignored calls from the monitoring station and us letting them known the communication test had failed. It boggled my mind..
Did you not watch the same video we all watched? He says specifically that this is *NOT* a jamming issue. It's a protocol issue with DEAUTH (De-auth) which is a protocol signal that you can send across a WiFi channel to tell all devices on that channel to de authorize the data connection. The WiFi is still there, the Radio Signal is still there. The SSID is still there and can be seen by all wifi devices...but you cannot connect because there is something on that channel broadcasting a deauth signal. This is a completely different attack vector than a known crude signal jammer. So your idea about 3 checkins? Like what? check to see that the device is still there? Sure...it's there...but unless you're doing some kind of handshake, your idea won't work...
@@procactus9109 Legally, it will be considered a jammer. (any electronic device that prevents the legal owner of wifi equipment use of their system.) You still have to catch the criminal, which is quite difficult and expensive.
Companies making these cameras will wait until jammers become more commonplace and then offer an upgraded version, which will of course come at an additional cost. Even if it's as simple as a notification when the signal drops. Wireless cameras should be well hidden and used as a form of backup to the more visible wired ones. Anyone who lives in an old brick or stone house will know how temperamental wifi connections can be. My various consoles are in another room but not more than about 8m from the wifi router but due to a brick chimney and walls in between them wireless is spotty at best.
I have a hard wired security setup mainly because we have sky broadband that usually decide to do repairs quite often in the early hours making the internet useless for a couple of hours
The most irritating thing about having a security camera outside your home is the cops always doing an investigation in the neighborhood wanting to see footage.
@@drjekelmrhyde right my house sits on the corner of a intersection that's the entrance of a dead in neighborhood I have cars that park on both corners my cameras shoots both corners.
I would let them do it but my lawyer told me to tell them to get a warrant that way if anything wrong happens in the investigation the person suing can come after me as being a willing part of it, by making them get a warrant will protect you from being sued by others
I had an elective course in engineering that dealt with electronic signals generation, by far to this day, one of the hardest classes I’ve EVER taken period, I couldn’t believe it was an elective as difficult as it was, I’d take thermo & fluid dynamics any day of the week after that.😂. But then again I had to take into account that I was a Chem E major & it was an electrical focus. Still, it served me well on the electronic side of reactor design, in real life application.
You can make one of these with an ESP01 for a couple of quid. I would hope that the security cameras will still record and send the video once a connection is reestablished. If not then they are not designed very well.
@Steve Arthur your right but the beauty of using an ESP01 is that they can be left in situ and controlled remotely if you can connect to a network or add 4G to the device. It doesnt matter if they get discovered as they are cheap. You can also use them to remotely capture network traffic.
Well, that's where you have a backup camera that's not relying on Wi-Fi. You have a camera going straight to the hard drive and that'll be your backup camera. It's what I do. I have a Wi-Fi camera and a camera that runs in the background with no internet. I also have something else too
I guess nobody told the criminals it's illegal to use network interference devices maybe we need more laws 🤔 that will definitely work just like with guns...
I've had a lot of problems with Wi-Fi in general, to the point that I am finding I don't like to leave Wi-Fi enabled on my home network at all. People are always trying to get onto it or mess with it somehow, and I've found it's better to just use Ethernet for everything unless the people where you live are all very honorable and don't like causing problems. It's not a problem for me to stick with Ethernet because I prefer using a laptop and a desktop, but I imagine people on tablets and phones won't want to hear that doing stuff wirelessly is bad for security overall. Their design is dependent on tech that I don't consider fit to use.
@qtsssim I have very many devices... mostly TV's. my laptops and other computing devices I wire up to the network... I do not use Wifi for them.. its too easy to allow others to have access to your private home network and then your private data
You can shine blue laser into camera and it will stop working permanently, no matter how is wired. It can only sense so much light and a blue laser light can over do what is possible for a camera lense. It would be a special filter to block lasers
Wait what? I thought blue lasers were capable of igniting things on fire because of how intense the laser is? You talking about that, or a laser that just blinds and doesn't cause combustion? Also wouldn't lasers in other colors like green and red also do same thing, or are those colors only temporary interference and don't damage the camera?
Deauth attacks have been documented on RUclips for at least 10 years and the original reports on the issue are nearly 20 years old. The issue is that you can never depend on wifi for any form of security - if it is not a $50 device using this attack it will be a $60 device using a more advanced attack.
Yes. And the problem is that besides the security geeks, regular people are not made aware of this so they unknowingly buy cheap wireless stuff. My mission is to make everyone aware so we can help protect each other.
2:55 99% of wificams are 2.4ghz, so... Frankly I refuse to do wifi cams unless the customer can not afford hard wired and "needs" a solution. Wifi cams are the cheap route... but like many cheap routes there are multiple problems with them.
Get both, get a WIF for the door cameral hard wire cameras for every place else, use a DVR to record those cameras keep it hidden just in case someone breaks in and steals it
I've caught some people on camera stealing my gas from my vehicle wearing reflective vest ,I couldn't get anything from all the glare on night vision. So that's what has been happening here in Phoenix.
That's why I use Eufy cameras. The floodlight camera 2 pro saves video on the device and even if wifi is off the video is still recording and you can access it. If had the internet down for 2 days due to outages in the area and my camera still worked flawlessly . Most other companies cameras will not even record when wifi is off.
In reality anything that works over WiFi can be hacked. That includes Alexa, all your IOT devices, lights, switches, thermostat, TV's, and some WiFi based security alarms. So if you want true reliability then, wired Ethernet is best. Also the old school DVR with camera's wired using video cable. While it was a pain to run Ethernet cable throughout my home it was worth it. My IOT devices (lights, Alexa, etc) are on a separate subnet , but the rest are secure by wired connections.
True and goes for any wired connection, especially shielded. If I absolutely have to connect a device via Wifi, I have a separate network which doesn't broadcast its SSID, has a strong(er) password. (also I firewall block them from accessing any other client on my network) Even though I have a wired camera system, I put a few Wyzecams up in my window sills. To serve as sort of a distraction, though they also have MicroSD recording enabled. Thieves might think they're clever using one of these watches, but surprise! I have a wired system too.
Couple of things.......range is a problem. Also, you are assuming CCTV is not hard wired. Most professional CCTV systems are not wifi because its not reliable. Also a laser pointed at the camera will blind the camera.
You can have the best security cam installed and still be useless. If a tech savvy criminal really wants to get in your home undetected they will. Already witnessed several instances where security systems were shutdown both WiFi and hard wired. Think your safe? Think again. There’s tech out there that can either completely shutdown your system or turn it into a zombie system(exactly how it sounds. Records everything as if everything is normal without showing criminals going through your window). Just happened last week in Oregon. Only reason they were caught was that a neighbor saw someone breaking in. Upon talking to the neighbor their hardwired systems never showed the break in.
This is concerning, we have Ring brand cameras throughout our house and we just upgraded to NBN recently here in Australia. All wireless 2 step verification wi-fi and the latest router on the market so hopefully its not able to be hacked so easily. I know if our Wi-Fi is shutdown or disconnected we get notified immediately,but its still concerning especially when we are planning a trip away from the house for 3 days!
The security layer does correct the issue. RF jamming prevents all communication between the camera and wifi router\AP. Imagine cutting a cable, no signal.
In the UK, and other countries, many properties have gas & electric meters accessible to anyone on the building exterior. A potential thief can turn off the homes electric supply, disabling any WiFi that doesn't have a backup supply, which is 90% 😮
Mine has a hub. It was recording even when we had a power out during a storm. Couldn't see the video until the wifi came back on, but glad it was still recording on its own.
My wifi camera is to keep them from getting to far... it's a safety measure for the would be thief, once they get inside. There is no coming back out. 👍👍
We installed some nice Zeeporte wireless cameras on our house to keep tabs on our rebellious teenage daughter and I kid you not the 2nd day after they were installed she downloaded something on her cell phone that jams the wifi signal or screws with the cameras radio waves. She goes in and out of the house as if she's a ghost but the cameras send me notifications on the rest of us coming in and out. Very frustrated as we just don't want her bringing people inside the house especially at night when we're sleeping. Her mom won't let me take her phone though.
I have poe wired cameras with the nvr option for wifi cameras. It's not connected to the internet and I don't have wifi cameras. My neighbors are monitoring my cameras remotely. They leave and about 30 minutes later my monitor goes blank on certain cams. The log indicates the remote user. I live alone and it's CREEPY. Be careful how you resolve it. The nvr is my problem with wired cameras. This watch explains how the other neighbor hides the vehicles coming and going. The video is there usually but the motion is detected well after the event and I have to play it backwards to find it.
My neighbor is jamming my security camera daily, because he wants to smoke under the covered area by my Apt door and not be recorded. I have caught pics of him with a device in his hand. This literally also means he could help himself in my Apt when I am not home. At my wits end.
That’s why I use cameras with built in storage. They can jam it but as soon as they go back online the video and images are still uploaded. Also, most these jammers struggle when you have mesh and wireless base stations sending multiple signals.
Not using cables is asking for trouble.. also.. the camera should have a buffer, and some have.. like a 16-64gb SD card that keeps recording for days.. then it can sync up to the main box when the scary wifi killer is gone.
this happened to me yesterday in the day time. a guy and woman did a fake break down in the alley behind my house. they where out there sitting next to my fence for a few hours and she paced back and forth trying to use her cell to call someone. after about 2.5 to 3 hours a vehicle pulls up behind her car and 2 guys got out one with a old jug of water poured some under the hood started it and she got into the guys van that was there with her and her car along with the newly shown up vehicle, both those guys jumped into hers and the other one and backed out of the alley as fast as possible. her and the guy that have been there the whole time pulled up the alley one house farther and sat there for about another 15 to 20 minutes before disappearing around the corner. i got live video of it from a device with the choppy signal. now that i think of it, the day before someone with a backpack was walking up and down the alley stopping behind the neighbors house and then disappearing around the corners at both ends of the alley. looked like he was waiting for someone to show up. he was around for just over 3 hours. starting to wonder if they where working together or something..
today i wake up and one of my devices as a privacy warning on it. and lots of things gone through. luckily i’ve had issues with this device getting it even turned on since new.
This is why I believe in redundancy. I have a entire wifi security system and an entire line fed security system so that if one or the other fails, there's always surveillance still running.
Poe cameras outside and in important areas, battery wifi cameras with SD cards for indoors that turn off and on when everyone is not home / one person returns home, not to mention the security system monitoring doors windows and glass break noises. It's a flawless system
So if you only can afford lower cost cameras maybe conceal the camera (somehow) within a potted plant or potted bushy little tree so the fact you're running cameras is not readily apparent to provoke the crim to turn his device on (?) as well.
Im more concerned with the implications this has with home security system ability to send signals to the monitoring station, especially when combined with a cell blocker. ( most modern alarm systems do not trigger an immediate call to police or the home owner when communications are severed. If anything a notification via the systems app) For those that don't know. The alarm could be triggered but it would not be able to alert emergency services.
Cell jammers are not that common... Keep in mind it's a FEDERAL offense to operate one. Granted criminals don't really care about that... it does make it a tad less common. What isn't illegal though and readily available is jamming of 300mghz devices with a fob by over saturating the frequency. Systems like Simplysafe[simplyunsafe] are easily susceptible to this, as well as many older alarm systems, but newer ones have measures to recognize jamming that will trip the alarm. Also with cell jamming many alarm panels also have wifi has backup now, so if they lose cell they can still communicate but this isn't 100%. There are still hundreds of thousands of people on 3g cards that are "dead" until upgraded.[ie anyone in Louisiana on 3g has an inert alarm panel because the towers literally were destroyed and replaced with 5g].
As an abuse victim, this information is invaluable. No wonder my abuser was always able to get passed my cameras, even his girlfriends have been able to!!!! The cops have been unhelpful at best because I could supply no tangible evidence.
Wired is also more reliable - as long as the wire is not cut, that is. Anyway, cameras are useless if guards don't intervene when your property is threatened.
Yeah...that was a criteria to my home cameras is to have onboard *AND* remote storage of videos and images. My cams have SD cards (64GB) with autorotate. I didn't *KNOW* about deauth at the time, but I do know IT security...
No problem. My each camera recording footage on to microSd card. They would have to steal camera or take memory. Which is obviously possible. But on the other hand every place can be break in to, it's just a matter of time and effort.
This is what FBI CIA and other agencies use to prevent recording their presence while they surveil and or plant or retrieve their black box devices. They can block entire sections /blocks/neighborhoods.

Are you telling Liron to stop being afraid of technology, too?
I self-host 90% of my services in multiple devices seperate devices, which are hardened for security, lean and hardwired (some in their own subnetwork) and do not expose anything on the internet. But still wouldn't call it a perfect solution, I suggest you keep a backup off-site and some things in the cloud for quick access. Cloud can be useful, just don't rely to it for personal information.

great question! The big brand name companies are pretty good with keeping up with security vulnerabilities and issues and they test to issue firmware updates.

When we got back my bank documents from the last two years had been stolen.
I have 5 cameras all with sd cards too. Each one, with a ladder, would take about 10-20 minutes each minimum to remove and that's if they knew exactly what they were doing which they would not.
That's why I hard wired my home security system. I just feel old school is sometimes better.

This is why you choose cameras with internal sd-card adapter and keep recording offline no matter the NVR, WiFi, cloud or phone application status.

These watches are really expensive seeing you could do the same with an esp32
Great!!
I hope my tweaker neighbor doesn't see this video🥴💀🤫
I have changed over to POE (power over ethernet) when I added more cameras since even most wireless cameras need power run anyway. Much easier to run an ethernet cable. My POE switch and computer server are both hard wired to router. I then also have a UPS that everything plugs into, so if power was cut it still works for about 25 mins.
@@familyplans3788 A lot of renters find them easier to install.
All my cameras are hardwired to a POE switch. Switch hardwired to the router. Then my DVR has a hardwire direct to the router. Top security and minimal lag.
Funny. My security cameras have a bright red LED that comes on when they d/c from the network. I always thought that was a dumb idea and now I see I was right. It's a confirmation LED for a thief.
My advice: blot out the light with some color matching epoxy and put a MicroSD card in if it has a slot. Also consider getting wired cameras. Yeah, they're not full proof either but better than wireless. Especially when using shielded cable (EMP type jammers can disable them while the batteries last, and have a better chance of succeeding if the cable's not shielded).
The LED is a great defense. All you have to do is watch the camera to see if someone might be walking into your house. 😂
@@GUITARSTUFF911 At least from a distance. They can always do the old fashioned approach it with a mask and spray paint the lens, but the neighbors are more likely to notice and will still get a height and weight estimate in most cases.
Just wire that LED to ALWAYS be on - thief thinks camera is disconnected and doesn’t bother with using the device in this video.
If it's at night I'm not looking for the LED but the IR. If I don't see a dull red glow from the camera then it's dead or otherwise worthless.
"what's scary" is that people think Wifi is robust enough for a security system. Wifi is EASILY interfered with, this single proof-of-concept is just the latest of the ways to handle it. If you have a camera, and you want it to be more than decoration, then wire it in. Unfortunately I also understand how hard it is to wire in many of the cameras, in placed like apartments, for the places that HAVE to have wireless, it HAS to have local storage, or back to decoration status.
Some cameras have a sd card for when the video cuts off and the dvr puts a warning that the connection was lost and video isn't transmited anymore...
@@contytub That doesn't solve the problem. Just like the wireless door switches that use 433mhz ISM band, get a 25 dollar boafeng hand held and you can just press the tx button while opening the door, close the door and release the button, your alarm system doesn't trigger.
Luckily "most" thieves are very dumb, but I agree with you, hardwire your security cameras for the best protection.
@@contytub🤨 🤔
@Liron, your videos are great. Education is important and security is complex. The low end systems target people who don't have a technical background and you make it easy for people to understand. Your contribution is excellent and much needed.
appreciate you being here!
Does a hard wired system connected to a dvr keep recording during an electrical outage?
2.4ghz is cheaper, but also has much better range than 5ghz. Smart cameras use it because they're typically further from access points than other devices.
Hence the need for boosters.
and that has nothing to do with the deauth flood attack
@@stevebabiak6997 boosters are a thing of the past, it's mesh network time
@@Rancid_Ninja Not everywhere, standard networks with a single router are and will always be faster than mesh networks. Yeah for corporate environments they are a dime a dozen, but for homes? They're great if you aren't terribly concerned about latency, but if you do something like game regularly, potentially even in something like an E-Sports tourney, you'll want either a dedicated WiFi 6 connection for your computer or to have it directly hardwired into the modem. Mesh networks will just slow it down
@@richardmillhousenixon and old school boosters are a huge drain on your single network router
it's not crazy if you are sick of being recorded everywhere you go
In the EU the CCTV immunity EMC standard EN50130-4 is legally required and would not be compliant with a WIFI connection. The signal could easily be jammed.
Most wifi cameras should not be called "security" cameras, because they have not been tested to this standard and have used the generic EN55022 immunity standard, they are simply web cams or video monitors and should not be sold for security purposes, however many are and there is simply no policing, or noone really knows this is going on.
I don’t understand why night vision camera manufacturers use 850nm infrared lights instead of 940nm. 940nm LEDs are a lot less visible to the human eye than 850nm. It makes it harder to spot your cameras at night unless they have night vision optics.
This attack, along with jammers are two reasons I always insisted on old-fashioned ethernet for my security system. With POe connected to UPS, nothing will get missed.
Don't forget to put them on their own network even if it is just a VLAN.
What is poe and ups.
@@margaretjohnston2858 PoE is power over ethernet. It is a way to power things over ethernet cable as it implies. You need a switch that has that feature or a PoE injector.
A UPS is a uninterruptable power supply. It is basically a small battery backup. So if the power goes out whatever you have plugged into it will stay on without interruption.
@@margaretjohnston2858 "POE" = Power-Over-Ethernet - and "UPS" = Uninterruptible Power System.
😂 lol like this device matters in the slightest. All it means is that you can't view live, which you're unlikely to be doing anyway. Most wifi cameras have an SD card in them so they have to steal that too.
You are so kind to let people know this. I know an evil woman who said she has a spare master key and can get into any apartment. People can steal from you. Do not keep cash in the home. These theives know where you keep things. They befriend you and ask all sorts of questions once they get your trust. They betray you without remorse and steal.
Cell phone jammer existed 15 years ago. Was pretty cool to turn it on and have all the zone go dead.
Thanks, switched over to WPA3 for the wifi cams. Multi-layered security is best practice, if one fails or is defeated the backup is there.
You can switch over to it easily?

I feel like more and more trickery is going on we have a delay on how this kind of info gets leaked to the common joe, or jane doe
That’s you!! My cameras record locally to SD, and the cloud…PLUS, I just checked my router and it supports WPA3!! Changing immediately!
The use of 2.4GHz band isn't exclusively to keep costs down. Surveillance systems are typically spread out around the entire home, and using 2.4GHz band makes it easier to maintain a useful level of connectivity to devices without the use of wifi repeaters. 5GHz is for dense wide-open usage such as office spaces, as the larger bandwidth does not go through walls, floors, windows, etc. as easily.
Further, it appears that these cameras did not have analytics set up properly. The amount of movement should have alerted the homeowner before the burglary.
The "known vulnerability" has been known by anyone who knows anything about radio long before WiFi even existed. that vulnerability is that any radio signals can easily be jammed! So don't rely on wireless anything for security. The only possible workaround is if your security equipment checks in with remote monitoring every 30 seconds or so and if more than two or three check ins are missed, it alerts whoever needs to be alerted.
On the server side and client side the notifications can come from either side.
It's not a jammer, it's using the normal wifi protocol
3+ years supervising call center of an alarm company... So many customers ignored calls from the monitoring station and us letting them known the communication test had failed. It boggled my mind..
Did you not watch the same video we all watched? He says specifically that this is *NOT* a jamming issue. It's a protocol issue with DEAUTH (De-auth) which is a protocol signal that you can send across a WiFi channel to tell all devices on that channel to de authorize the data connection. The WiFi is still there, the Radio Signal is still there. The SSID is still there and can be seen by all wifi devices...but you cannot connect because there is something on that channel broadcasting a deauth signal. This is a completely different attack vector than a known crude signal jammer. So your idea about 3 checkins? Like what? check to see that the device is still there? Sure...it's there...but unless you're doing some kind of handshake, your idea won't work...
@@procactus9109 Legally, it will be considered a jammer. (any electronic device that prevents the legal owner of wifi equipment use of their system.) You still have to catch the criminal, which is quite difficult and expensive.
Companies making these cameras will wait until jammers become more commonplace and then offer an upgraded version, which will of course come at an additional cost. Even if it's as simple as a notification when the signal drops.
Wireless cameras should be well hidden and used as a form of backup to the more visible wired ones. Anyone who lives in an old brick or stone house will know how temperamental wifi connections can be. My various consoles are in another room but not more than about 8m from the wifi router but due to a brick chimney and walls in between them wireless is spotty at best.
I have a hard wired security setup mainly because we have sky broadband that usually decide to do repairs quite often in the early hours making the internet useless for a couple of hours
The most irritating thing about having a security camera outside your home is the cops always doing an investigation in the neighborhood wanting to see footage.
Tell them to get a warrant or tell them that you charge a $500 service fee to show your videos.
@@accuratealloys I started charging so far I'm up 350 lol they was getting out of hand. I live on a main street

I had an elective course in engineering that dealt with electronic signals generation, by far to this day, one of the hardest classes I’ve EVER taken period, I couldn’t believe it was an elective as difficult as it was, I’d take thermo & fluid dynamics any day of the week after that.😂. But then again I had to take into account that I was a Chem E major & it was an electrical focus. Still, it served me well on the electronic side of reactor design, in real life application.
You can make one of these with an ESP01 for a couple of quid. I would hope that the security cameras will still record and send the video once a connection is reestablished. If not then they are not designed very well.
100%
Yup. Drives are small enough to put one in each camera
@Steve Arthur your right but the beauty of using an ESP01 is that they can be left in situ and controlled remotely if you can connect to a network or add 4G to the device. It doesnt matter if they get discovered as they are cheap. You can also use them to remotely capture network traffic.
Send me how to make it
@@LironSegev hi can you send me a link to buy this please ?
Well, that's where you have a backup camera that's not relying on Wi-Fi. You have a camera going straight to the hard drive and that'll be your backup camera. It's what I do. I have a Wi-Fi camera and a camera that runs in the background with no internet. I also have something else too

There are people that are harmed by interference by that logic they should remove all communications altogether
I've had a lot of problems with Wi-Fi in general, to the point that I am finding I don't like to leave Wi-Fi enabled on my home network at all. People are always trying to get onto it or mess with it somehow, and I've found it's better to just use Ethernet for everything unless the people where you live are all very honorable and don't like causing problems. It's not a problem for me to stick with Ethernet because I prefer using a laptop and a desktop, but I imagine people on tablets and phones won't want to hear that doing stuff wirelessly is bad for security overall. Their design is dependent on tech that I don't consider fit to use.
Jeremy, I have all my wifi AP's in my DMZ and no access to key systems from the DMZ at all
@qtsssim I have very many devices... mostly TV's. my laptops and other computing devices I wire up to the network... I do not use Wifi for them.. its too easy to allow others to have access to your private home network and then your private data
You can shine blue laser into camera and it will stop working permanently, no matter how is wired.
It can only sense so much light and a blue laser light can over do what is possible for a camera lense. It would be a special filter to block lasers
Wait what? I thought blue lasers were capable of igniting things on fire because of how intense the laser is? You talking about that, or a laser that just blinds and doesn't cause combustion?
Also wouldn't lasers in other colors like green and red also do same thing, or are those colors only temporary interference and don't damage the camera?
@@DarkGhostHacker it burns out the image sensor. If this was electricity, its like plugging a 12v dc device into a wall outlet.

Deauth attacks have been documented on RUclips for at least 10 years and the original reports on the issue are nearly 20 years old. The issue is that you can never depend on wifi for any form of security - if it is not a $50 device using this attack it will be a $60 device using a more advanced attack.
Yes. And the problem is that besides the security geeks, regular people are not made aware of this so they unknowingly buy cheap wireless stuff. My mission is to make everyone aware so we can help protect each other.
2:55 99% of wificams are 2.4ghz, so...
Frankly I refuse to do wifi cams unless the customer can not afford hard wired and "needs" a solution. Wifi cams are the cheap route... but like many cheap routes there are multiple problems with them.
Get both, get a WIF for the door cameral hard wire cameras for every place else, use a DVR to record those cameras keep it hidden just in case someone breaks in and steals it
I've caught some people on camera stealing my gas from my vehicle wearing reflective vest ,I couldn't get anything from all the glare on night vision. So that's what has been happening here in Phoenix.
Did you get a locking gas cap (if that even works)?
actually, i could use that for my hotel stays.... that'd be a lot easier than chasing down the cams and mics for an hour like a crazy person
That's why I use Eufy cameras. The floodlight camera 2 pro saves video on the device and even if wifi is off the video is still recording and you can access it. If had the internet down for 2 days due to outages in the area and my camera still worked flawlessly .
Most other companies cameras will not even record when wifi is off.
I do that with Wyze cameras as well...
This did not age well
If you use Simply a Safe, don't put the sign out saying it
In reality anything that works over WiFi can be hacked. That includes Alexa, all your IOT devices, lights, switches, thermostat, TV's, and some WiFi based security alarms.
So if you want true reliability then, wired Ethernet is best. Also the old school DVR with camera's wired using video cable. While it was a pain to run Ethernet cable throughout my home it was worth it. My IOT devices (lights, Alexa, etc) are on a separate subnet , but the rest are secure by wired connections.
ditto 👍
Anything off network that has an IP or MAC address can be hacked too. POE/RDP
Same
💯👍🏽
True and goes for any wired connection, especially shielded. If I absolutely have to connect a device via Wifi, I have a separate network which doesn't broadcast its SSID, has a strong(er) password. (also I firewall block them from accessing any other client on my network)
Even though I have a wired camera system, I put a few Wyzecams up in my window sills. To serve as sort of a distraction, though they also have MicroSD recording enabled. Thieves might think they're clever using one of these watches, but surprise! I have a wired system too.
Couple of things.......range is a problem. Also, you are assuming CCTV is not hard wired. Most professional CCTV systems are not wifi because its not reliable. Also a laser pointed at the camera will blind the camera.
And that is why traffic cameras only target the lawful.
You can have the best security cam installed and still be useless. If a tech savvy criminal really wants to get in your home undetected they will. Already witnessed several instances where security systems were shutdown both WiFi and hard wired. Think your safe? Think again. There’s tech out there that can either completely shutdown your system or turn it into a zombie system(exactly how it sounds. Records everything as if everything is normal without showing criminals going through your window). Just happened last week in Oregon. Only reason they were caught was that a neighbor saw someone breaking in. Upon talking to the neighbor their hardwired systems never showed the break in.
I'm having less confidence now I know a bit about cctv. I was thinking about getting a system not sure if wireless is way go now??
This is scary, but thanks for this video, I have some modifications to make on my surveillance devices
Thank you for showing everyone how to do that.
Great tip! I didn't realize my router had WPA 3 as an option. I just switched it over. Thanks!
The problem with recommending people use WPA3 is some devices may not support it.

This is concerning, we have Ring brand cameras throughout our house and we just upgraded to NBN recently here in Australia. All wireless 2 step verification wi-fi and the latest router on the market so hopefully its not able to be hacked so easily. I know if our Wi-Fi is shutdown or disconnected we get notified immediately,but its still concerning especially when we are planning a trip away from the house for 3 days!
Ditch the wifi camera and only use cables. Try to have a camera covering a camera
The security layer does correct the issue. RF jamming prevents all communication between the camera and wifi router\AP. Imagine cutting a cable, no signal.
ugh you must've missed the 2FA videos. those are easily hackable as if they aren't there
There even is an WPA2 fix for this issue, but the manufacturers are not including it. The standart is called " IEEE 802.11w"
Well done. You’ve just shown them how to do it
Glad I have the WIRED option! Got me thinking now?
Security begins when you hardwire the cameras, using any security device via radio is just a joke, not security.
RF = Really F'ed

In the UK, and other countries, many properties have gas & electric meters accessible to anyone on the building exterior. A potential thief can turn off the homes electric supply, disabling any WiFi that doesn't have a backup supply, which is 90% 😮
This is exactly why (among many other reasons) to not have IP, wireless or network cameras of any type. Just get a hardwired surveillance system.
If they cut your power!?!?!? Then what?
Mine has a hub. It was recording even when we had a power out during a storm. Couldn't see the video until the wifi came back on, but glad it was still recording on its own.

We installed some nice Zeeporte wireless cameras on our house to keep tabs on our rebellious teenage daughter and I kid you not the 2nd day after they were installed she downloaded something on her cell phone that jams the wifi signal or screws with the cameras radio waves. She goes in and out of the house as if she's a ghost but the cameras send me notifications on the rest of us coming in and out. Very frustrated as we just don't want her bringing people inside the house especially at night when we're sleeping. Her mom won't let me take her phone though.
I have poe wired cameras with the nvr option for wifi cameras. It's not connected to the internet and I don't have wifi cameras. My neighbors are monitoring my cameras remotely. They leave and about 30 minutes later my monitor goes blank on certain cams. The log indicates the remote user. I live alone and it's CREEPY. Be careful how you resolve it. The nvr is my problem with wired cameras. This watch explains how the other neighbor hides the vehicles coming and going. The video is there usually but the motion is detected well after the event and I have to play it backwards to find it.
Put a tracker app on her phone.
My neighbor is jamming my security camera daily, because he wants to smoke under the covered area by my Apt door and not be recorded. I have caught pics of him with a device in his hand. This literally also means he could help himself in my Apt when I am not home. At my wits end.
That’s why I use cameras with built in storage. They can jam it but as soon as they go back online the video and images are still uploaded. Also, most these jammers struggle when you have mesh and wireless base stations sending multiple signals.
Not using cables is asking for trouble.. also.. the camera should have a buffer, and some have.. like a 16-64gb SD card that keeps recording for days.. then it can sync up to the main box when the scary wifi killer is gone.
And it must make removal of the SD card a bit of a pain so it isn’t readily removed by the “unwanted guest”.
this happened to me yesterday in the day time. a guy and woman did a fake break down in the alley behind my house. they where out there sitting next to my fence for a few hours and she paced back and forth trying to use her cell to call someone. after about 2.5 to 3 hours a vehicle pulls up behind her car and 2 guys got out one with a old jug of water poured some under the hood started it and she got into the guys van that was there with her and her car along with the newly shown up vehicle, both those guys jumped into hers and the other one and backed out of the alley as fast as possible.
her and the guy that have been there the whole time pulled up the alley one house farther and sat there for about another 15 to 20 minutes before disappearing around the corner. i got live video of it from a device with the choppy signal.
now that i think of it, the day before someone with a backpack was walking up and down the alley stopping behind the neighbors house and then disappearing around the corners at both ends of the alley. looked like he was waiting for someone to show up. he was around for just over 3 hours.
starting to wonder if they where working together or something..
today i wake up and one of my devices as a privacy warning on it. and lots of things gone through. luckily i’ve had issues with this device getting it even turned on since new.
Sounds like they were scanning networks for vulnerabilities.
This is why I believe in redundancy. I have a entire wifi security system and an entire line fed security system so that if one or the other fails, there's always surveillance still running.
Poe cameras outside and in important areas, battery wifi cameras with SD cards for indoors that turn off and on when everyone is not home / one person returns home, not to mention the security system monitoring doors windows and glass break noises. It's a flawless system

So if you only can afford lower cost cameras maybe conceal the camera (somehow) within a potted plant or potted bushy little tree so the fact you're running cameras is not readily apparent to provoke the crim to turn his device on (?) as well.
Im more concerned with the implications this has with home security system ability to send signals to the monitoring station, especially when combined with a cell blocker.
( most modern alarm systems do not trigger an immediate call to police or the home owner when communications are severed. If anything a notification via the systems app) For those that don't know. The alarm could be triggered but it would not be able to alert emergency services.
Cell jammers are not that common... Keep in mind it's a FEDERAL offense to operate one. Granted criminals don't really care about that... it does make it a tad less common.
What isn't illegal though and readily available is jamming of 300mghz devices with a fob by over saturating the frequency. Systems like Simplysafe[simplyunsafe] are easily susceptible to this, as well as many older alarm systems, but newer ones have measures to recognize jamming that will trip the alarm.
Also with cell jamming many alarm panels also have wifi has backup now, so if they lose cell they can still communicate but this isn't 100%. There are still hundreds of thousands of people on 3g cards that are "dead" until upgraded.[ie anyone in Louisiana on 3g has an inert alarm panel because the towers literally were destroyed and replaced with 5g].
That is definitely a frequency blocker,and is a federal offense in the US.
As an abuse victim, this information is invaluable. No wonder my abuser was always able to get passed my cameras, even his girlfriends have been able to!!!! The cops have been unhelpful at best because I could supply no tangible evidence.

Any broadcaster/receiver can be jammed or intercepted.
Yeah...that was a criteria to my home cameras is to have onboard *AND* remote storage of videos and images. My cams have SD cards (64GB) with autorotate. I didn't *KNOW* about deauth at the time, but I do know IT security...
That's why I only use wired cams. And my wifi network is separated from my wired network.
This is why I use EzVid camera which has wireless, wired Network, and a micro SD card slot right into the camera.
I realized this was possible a few years back when messing around with it at my parents home. Didnt want to make it public. These things are like $15
They should be banned like any other tools used by criminals and those caught selling jail time.
No problem. My each camera recording footage on to microSd card. They would have to steal camera or take memory. Which is obviously possible. But on the other hand every place can be break in to, it's just a matter of time and effort.

Are you telling Liron to stop being afraid of technology, too?
I self-host 90% of my services in multiple devices seperate devices, which are hardened for security, lean and hardwired (some in their own subnetwork) and do not expose anything on the internet.

Do these wifi security camera companies ever notify their registered users of these types of vulnerabilities?
great question! The big brand name companies are pretty good with keeping up with security vulnerabilities and issues and they test to issue firmware updates. The problem is that people tend to buy cheap products from no-name brand companies found on Amazon.

Yes indeed. I remember when my system was taken over while I went shopping with the kids 12 hours after discovering and discussing with family that my bank account was hacked and my primary mailing address changed to my baby’s momma’s. When we got back my bank documents from the last two years had been stolen.

Yup
I have 5 cameras all with sd cards too. Each one, with a ladder, would take about 10-20 minutes each minimum to remove and that's if they knew exactly what they were doing which they would not.
