Cyber-Immune Security Solutions: Defense Against Cyberattacks

Cyber-immune analog video provides a layer of security that IP simply cannot.

 

Cybersecurity has become the top concern for businesses when choosing security solutions.  Cyberattacks are at an all-time high and show no signs of slowing down:  Attacks on internet accessible devices have risen 600% and 43% of all cyberattacks are aimed at small businesses!

How can you completely avoid the ever-present threat and constant onslaught of cyberattacks? The answer is simpler than it may seem: go analog.

Analog cameras are cyber-immune because they run on a closed circuit and cannot be accessed directly via the internet. Adversely, IP cameras each have an IP address that can allow external access through the internet, creating vulnerability not only to the video feed, but to the ENTIRE NETWORK.

Analog security solutions do much more than mitigate the risks of cyberattacks, they eliminate the opportunity. IP security solutions are always operating with a level of risk and susceptibility to vulnerabilities even with passwords, firewalls and firmware. Analog cameras bypass those concerns because there is no software in the camera itself. This also results in the analog cameras being easier to maintain than IP cameras, which can be extremely beneficial – especially in a large deployment.
