Author: Brian Karas, Published on Oct 19, 2016

Longse is on the attack, and now they are targeting Hikvision.

Evidently not content just to rip off Milestone and Video Insight, Longse has now added Hikvision to their hit list.

They are building a pretty powerful offering off the back of their competitors. Inside, we examine the details of what Longse is doing, how this helps them competitively and why this is unethical.
