There are several steps you can take to increase the security of your WiFi camera:

  1. Use a strong and unique password for your camera: Make sure to use a long, complex password that is unique to your camera. Avoid using easily guessable passwords such as "123456" or "password."

  2. Enable encryption: Many WiFi cameras offer encryption options, such as WPA2, to secure the communication between your camera and your router. Make sure to enable this feature.

  3. Update your camera's firmware: Keep your camera's firmware up to date to ensure that it has the latest security patches and features.

  4. Use a firewall: A firewall can help protect your camera by blocking unwanted incoming connections and only allowing authorized traffic to pass through.

  5. Use a virtual private network (VPN): A VPN encrypts your internet connection and can help protect your camera from being accessed by unauthorized parties.

  6. Secure your router: Make sure to secure your router with a strong and unique password and enable encryption. This will help protect your camera from being accessed through your router.

  7. Enable two-factor authentication: If your camera supports two-factor authentication, be sure to enable it. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring you to provide a second form of authentication (such as a code sent to your phone) in addition to your password.
