Hello,
You read that right. I am urgently in need of help/advice regarding this.
(A bit long but please bear with me)
Until 5 months ago I knew nothing about DVR, Router, Port Forward, DDNS, IP etc. But because I was in need of a security camera (all hikvision) to be installed in my residence, I went ahead and learn what needs to be learn in order to get my security camera system up and working.
Needless to say, I have a complete working security camera that I can access through the IVMS app and I can also access my camera management interface via DDNS (using No-ip).
But, as I am typing this, I am not sure that I really understand the risk about what I did.
....
because I got hacked very recently.
I think I am "lucky" because I was notified soon enough. But this was enough to send me into overdrive, as I changed all my passwords, installed antivirus in all my computers, make my router "invisible" and disabled UPNP.
and no, my router cannot be remotely accessed.
I port forward HTTP,HTTPs,RSTP, and SERVER with different numbers. I do not use 80 or 8000 or 443.
I have a static ip, but I still use No-ip as my DDNS (honestly I dont know why I did this).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My question is:
1) am I fairly "safe" that I don't use UPNP anymore?
This has come to my attention that every time I try to access my router web interface (LAN) and Hikvision dvr web interface, I get this "unsecured" page.
The top left hand corner, where there is a grey lock with a red stripe across.
I do not understand why I keep getting that. Or how to make sure that every time I access both pages, they will be secured (green lock).
I tried to access my Hikvision DVR web interface via HTTPs, I am unable to access the page.
Why is that?
Lastly, how did the hacker managed to get my personal information from?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please, I greatly appreciate anyone who can assist me with this.
Thank you.
