Hikvision Offers Tips to Create and Maintain Complex Passwords

Selon un article de Security Sales & Integration (SSI), la Californie a adopté une loi interdisant les mots de passe par défaut pour tous les appareils IoT, y compris les équipements de sécurité domestique intelligents, devenant ainsi l'un des premiers États américains à adopter ce type de législation.

Extrait de l’article : « Le projet de loi vise à améliorer la sécurité du grand nombre de consommateurs qui ne modifient pas les mots de passe par défaut - tels que « 123 »,« mot de passe »ou« admin »qui accompagnent de nouveaux appareils. Ce faisant, la législation interdit efficacement les mots de passe par défaut préinstallés et codés en dur à tout appareil connecté, qui est défini comme un « objet physique capable de se connecter à Internet, directement ou indirectement, et auquel est attribuée une adresse de protocole Internet ou une adresse Bluetooth. "

Les mots de passe par défaut doivent être uniques pour chaque périphérique, ou l'utilisateur doit être invité à modifier les valeurs par défaut avant d'utiliser le produit, conformément à l'article SSI.

Le projet de loi a été adopté le 28 septembre 2018. Pour plus d'informations, cliquez ici pour lire l'article en entier.

Le directeur de la cybersécurité d’Hikvision, Chuck Davis, a parlé des mots de passe par défaut lors

d'une entrevue avec Campus Safety plus tôt cette année. Dans ce document, il a déclaré : « Les valeurs par défaut sont vraiment mauvaises. Les pirates aiment se concentrer sur les valeurs par défaut car ils réalisent que de nombreuses personnes ne les modifient pas, qu’il s’agisse de mots de passe par défaut, de ports ou de configurations différentes. Alors, assurez-vous toujours de changer ces valeurs par défaut. "

Vous trouverez ci-dessous quelques conseils pour la création et la maintenance de mots de passe complexes.

Conseils de mot de passe de Hikvision

Pour rendre plus difficile le piratage des mots de passe, il est important de créer des mots de passe forts et complexes. Voici quelques conseils que Davis a partagé dans un blog récent:

1. Créez un mot de passe long et fort : développez un mot de passe fort, qui comprend plusieurs jeux de caractères tels que des majuscules, des minuscules, des chiffres et des caractères spéciaux. Faites-le long-huit caractères ou plus. Davis a ajouté : plus le mot de passe est long, mieux c'est.

2. Utilisez un outil de gestion de mot de passe : lorsque vous créez des mots de passe plus complexes, différents d’un site à l’autre, vous aurez peut-être de la difficulté à vous en souvenir. Une meilleure pratique consiste à utiliser un « outil de gestion de mot de passe », qui peut vous aider à générer et à récupérer des mots de passe complexes.

3. Si possible, activez l'authentification multi-facteurs (MFA) : activez MFA, en particulier lorsque vous ne disposez que d'un nom d'utilisateur et d'un mot de passe pour protéger les données sensibles. De nombreux sites prennent en charge MFA, mais peu de personnes savent qu’elles ont la possibilité d’activer MFA.

The I-series NVR (such as the DS-7716NI-I4) is one of Hikvision's most popular and feature-rich recorders. As such, many firmware revisions have been introduced over the years to continually ensure the product is compatible with the newest technology available. Due to the many revisions, we recommend that the user closely follows the instructions below in order to reduce the amount of time spent as well as the chance of failure.

 

Database Optimization and Repair

As more affordable IP cameras are introduced over time with greater video resolution and data sizes, more efficient database management also becomes necessary. The introduction of firmware v4.0 brought about a new database architecture in order to be futureproof.

 

After upgrading to v4.X, the recorder database will need to be converted and optimized. If you are experiencing issues where playback is expected but not found, make sure "Database Repair" is performed as indicated in the procedures and scenarios below.

 

Preparing the Upgrade

Before proceeding with upgrade, it is recommended that NVR configuration file is exported from the NVR over the network or on to a local USB drive.

 

Upgrading from v3.4.92 build 170518 or Older

  1. All recorders must reach v3.4.92 before proceeding further. Upgrading from versions before v3.4.92 directly to any version of v4.X will likely cause the recorder to fail.
  2. If the recorder is already at v3.4.92, a full factory default is highly recommended before upgrading to any version of v4.X. There is a high chance of unit failure (requiring RMA) if the unit is not defaulted before upgrade.
  3. After reaching v3.4.92 and performing a full factory default, an upgrade directly to v4.50.00 is acceptable.
  4. After the upgrade is completed and the recorder is reprogrammed, it may be beneficial to perform a Database Repair. For details, refer to the section "Database Optimization and Repair" above.
  5. To verify repair progress, you may refer to the HDD status, or search the recorder log for repair started and stopped entries. Note that while the HDD is repairing, new recordings are still being made, but some existing recordings may not be searchable until repair is complete.
  6. If you continue to observe playback issues after database repair, ensure there are no power, network, or motion detection issues. Should the problem persist, contact technical support.

 

Upgrading from Any v4.X Build to v4.50.00.

  1. Any v4.X build can be upgraded directly to v4.50.00.
  2. Export configuration is highly recommended before performing the upgrade.
  3. If upgrading from any v4.X version that was not v4.22.005, a Database Repair is recommended. Refer to Step 4 and onwards in the previous section.

 

Downgrading

Downgrading is not recommended. Due to new features and parameters constantly being added, downgrading may cause the NVR to factory default itself or require a manual default to operate properly.

K-Series DVR upgrade instruction
The Turbo 4 Hybrid DVR K series has multiple models and across different platform and chipset. It also has similar firmware development of other recording product line; DVR K series has also introduced the GUI4.0 to ensure the series to be compatible to the newest technology available. The new database architecture is also brought into the DVR firmware v4.0 to be future proof and for better recording search experience. 
 


Database Optimization and Repair

As more affordable cameras introduced over time with greater video resolution and data sizes, more efficient database management also becomes necessary. The introduction of firmware v4.0 brought about a new database architecture in order to be futureproof.
After upgrading to v4.X, the recorder database will need to be converted and optimize. If you are experiencing issues, where playback is expected but not found, please make sure to perform "Database Rebuild" as indicated in the procedures and scenarios below.
 


Preparing the Upgrade

Before proceeding with upgrade, it is recommend exporting DVR configuration file from the DVR over the network or on to a local USB drive.

 

Action after firmware upgraded 

1. Upgrade the DVR according to the chart above. 

2. Reconfirming Channel's Recording Schedule 

    - Confirm channel's recording schedule is enable. 

    - Check if the channel is on correct recording schedule.

3. Double Check Storage Setting

    - Make sure all channel are assigned to record on its HDD group when the Storage setting is under Group Mode. 

4. Perform Database Rebuild locally. 

    • Some version above support Database Rebuild via web access - K51 and K72

    • Perform Database Rebuild regardless if system is having any database issue symptom. 

    • Database Rebuild process is average ~30 to 60min per TB. The process may still varies depends recording data.

    • After Database Rebuild - Check log to confirm Database Rebuild has went thru properly. 

    • If Database Rebuild Started and Stopped log has been log only within few minutes. Database rebuild may not has been completed properly. It is strongly recommend performing the Database Rebuild again.

    • To check log > System > Log > Information > Database Rebuild Started and Stopped.

    • If the log option is not available - access system via SSH can also obtain similar result.

5. Recording Data is still missing after database rebuild process. 

If the data has not been recorded or has been overwritten, Database rebuild process is not able retrieve those lost data. Have the system upgraded to the latest available firmware version above to prevent any future data lost is strongly recommended for all application.

 

 

 

 

In light of the global semiconductor shortage, Hikvision has made some hardware changes to the DS-76xxNI-Q1(2)/P NVRs, also known as “Q series.”

 

These changes do not have any effect on the performance, specifications, or the user interface of the NVRs. For the ease of reference, these modified units are known as “C-Version” units. This is clearly indicated on the NVR label and on the box by the serial number.

 

The only difference between the “C-Version” and “non-C-Version” is the firmware. The firmware is not interchangeable:

 

  • The C-Version NVRs must use firmware version v4.31.102 or higher.
  • The non-C-Version (Q series) NVRs must use firmware version v4.30.085 or older.

 

Please do not be alarmed if a “Firmware Mismatch” message pops up on the screen during the firmware upgrade. This simply means that the firmware does not match the NVR’s hardware. Simply download the correct firmware and the upgrade will go through without any issue.
