You can call me paranoid but I did get attacked once. Not just separate WiFi networks - the secure networks are completely separate from the insecure ones. So, I have two WiFi networks at home and two on the boat.īoth on the boat and at home, I have a secure network for all my computers and an insecure network for my IoT devices. This includes devices like Alexa and set top boxes. It on y needs a "back door" in the IoT software and "they are in". I have no evidence of this being abused but is it, technically, possible for these IoT type devices to attack your LAN. This is all fine until you realise that the external internet server is probably in China!!! Then the app can use that path that was created between the external internet server and the camera thus tunnelling through any NAT routers/firewalls on the way. The camera then creates an electronic path/connection between the server and the camera. The apps work by connecting to an external internet server - both that app and the camera. Here's a warning for all these devices and other cheap IoT devices. The alarm works by comparing two video frames - if they differ, an alarm is triggered. Sometimes, I get a false alarm as boats pass by and light/shadows set it off.
Whether it gives you the right angle of view will depend on the size of the documents and what distance you can hold the camera from them. Currently, that is very well priced at about £150. These cheap cameras can also be set up to send emails whenever activated. An inexpensive wide aperture lens for it would be the Panasonic 25mm f/1.7. They have a pan and tilt and can be controlled from either an app or via a web interface.Ī web interface, of course, will require some special internet routing. For the last couple of years, I have been using cheap Escam G02 cameras from Ebay - about between 20 and 30 quid each.
