Thanks IPVM for including this important topic in your blog series. Industry awareness had definitely increased and clearer information is appreciated. OEM partnerships cut both ways- On one side, a trusted brand can get products to market quickly. On the other hand, it is evident a couple of high profile OEMs have emboldened themselves to poach their own customers.
To FLIR's customer care credit, they have included a hotline number and email enrollment for those needing immediate help or want to be first in the development loop: 877-757-6981 and www.flir.com/securityinfo

I want to know what the customer response is... When we first released a statement last time Dahua was involved in a hack and a major world-record-breaking DDOS attack NO ONE CARED.
Do we really think anyone will care now? I talked to some people who run businesses in our city's chamber of commerce meeting and no one cares about it. If they can see video on their phone they're pleased...
Until someone gets properly sued and there's a precedent for responsibility... no one will care.
