Vice (opens in new tab) reported this past week that a third-party vendor associated with Ring had been hit by BlackCat ransomware Ring employees have been told "do not discuss anything about this," and we can't be certain yet what user data is on the line if Amazon doesn't pay.īefore this latest incident, security researcher Paul Moore discovered that Eufy cameras were sending users' images and facial recognition data to the cloud without their knowledge or consent, that you could stream anyone's private camera feeds from a web browser, and that Eufy's AES 128 encryption was easily cracked because it used simple keys.Įufy responded by patching some issues and editing its privacy guidelines to guarantee fewer protections for its users, at which point we recommended you throw away your Eufy cameras.Ĭompared to the epic scale of the Verkada camera breach, during which 150,000 cameras could be accessed via one master password, most publicly-known flaws with well-known home security systems were relatively minor and occurred several years ago.
