Protecting your home cams from hacking and ensuring their security involves several measures:

Secure Passwords: Use strong, unique passwords for your cameras. Avoid using default or easily guessable passwords.
Firmware Updates: Keep your camera’s firmware updated to the latest version. Manufacturers often release patches to fix security vulnerabilities.
Network Security: Use a secure Wi-Fi network with encryption (WPA2 or WPA3). Avoid public or unsecured networks for camera connections.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enable 2FA whenever possible. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification.
Regular Checks: Routinely review your camera’s settings and access logs for any unusual activity.

To spot if your footage has been stolen and sold:

Unusual Activity: Check for unexpected login attempts, changes in settings, or unfamiliar devices accessing your camera.
Monitoring Access Logs: Regularly review the access logs provided by your camera’s app or web interface. Look for any unauthorized access.
Public Posting: Sometimes, hacked footage might appear on pornographic sites or other platforms. Regularly search for your location or specific identifying features in case your footage has been shared online without your permission.

If you suspect your footage has been compromised:

Contact Authorities: Report the incident to the police or relevant authorities. They might be able to assist in identifying and stopping the dissemination of your footage.
Camera Manufacturer or Support: Contact the camera manufacturer’s support team for guidance and assistance. They might offer specific steps to mitigate the issue.

Regarding the Sim Lim Square incident you mentioned, it’s important to stay updated with news and official announcements from authorities regarding such incidents. Singaporean authorities often issue advisories and guidelines to address security concerns related to tech devices.

Always prioritize your privacy and security by staying vigilant and taking necessary precautions to prevent unauthorized access to your home cameras.

SINGAPORE (THE NEW PAPER) – Security cameras in Singapore homes have been hacked, and the footage shared online.

Clips from the hacked footage were uploaded on pornographic sites recently, with several explicitly tagged as being from Singapore.

The videos, which can last from under a minute to more than 20 minutes, feature couples, breastfeeding mothers and even children.

Most of them were in various stages of undress or compromising positions.

Many faces could be clearly seen in different areas of the home such as the living room and bedroom. Some were seen using the toilet with the door ajar.

In one video, time-stamped March 2020, a teenage girl could be seen clad in a white T-shirt and her underwear, with school books around her. Among them was an O-level 10-Year Series book used by students preparing for the exam.
