Axis, Pay Integrators To Fix Your Critical Defect

Author: John Honovich, Published on Jul 14, 2016

Axis should pay integrators to fix Axis' recent disclosed critical security vulnerability / defect. 

There are millions of Axis cameras deployed with this defect. The risk is high as the soon to be published disclosure (July 18th) will allow attackers to take over the devices.

It falls on integrators to upgrade Axis cameras and eliminate this risk camera by camera.

Why Axis?

Axis should live up to their self proclaimed standards. Axis markets their high 'quality'. Integrators and customers pay a premium for that quality.
