Hanwha Vision's Commitment to Cyber Security






Cyber Security by Design
Our cyber security strategy places cyber-attack protection as a fundamental feature of our video surveillance products and solutions. This is taken into account right at the start of the design process, not purely treated as yet another of a long list of useful features.

Prompt Security Vulnerability Response
Wisenet products come with secure pre-configured passwords which users are required to change after setup. These come with minimum mandatory and auto-enforced password protocols, such as prohibiting the consecutive use of the same character and encouraging the use of special characters.

Compliance with international regulations and standards
Using an intentionally created ‘back door’ to gain access to a camera, recorder or network creates opportunities for cyber attacks to take place. Hanwha Vision recognised this as far back as 2012, when we removed a function used for remote customer support that had the potential to enable hackers to exploit it.

GDPR
Our Wisenet cameras, recording devices and video management software (VMS) are equipped with features and functions that are able to prevent confidential data from being accessed, copied or tampered with, providing system integrators and end-users with peace of mind knowing that their video surveillance systems comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Hanwha Vision also provide support for the S-COP video masking software application, developed by our technology partner, VORA Systems. This enables security personnel to quickly and easily redact faces from video in order to protect a person’s right to privacy.
NDAA
Compliance
There are a growing number of acronyms that are regularly used to describe the attributes of video surveillance products, especially with regard to cyber security, but one which may not be on the radar of European installers and integrators is NDAA. While it is a US-based initiative, it still is of importance to many European businesses. The reality is users are looking to the regulations to identify trusted partners for future projects. Additionally, businesses with US-based headquarters may be advised by the parent company to avoid blacklisted manufacturers to ensure higher levels of security.
