NDAA Compliant IP Cameras - What's the Point?

[Arjun]

What's the point of NDAA Compliance when all of these camera manufacturers are still piggybacking off each other's components. If you do a breakdown on all parts used a in typical IP camera, chances are components are being shared amongst various factories assembling cameras for BOTH NDDA compliance reasons and non-NDDA compliant cameras

Exactly. The ban doesn't do anything to prevent hacking.

And most that buy a doorbell cam will have it connected to the internet, which at that point the NDAA is just as vulnerable as the non-NDAA.

I was casually browsing Nelly's - I was sticker shocked by the prices. There really is no basis as to why prices are high. This forum should appear on the top searched result on Google for consumers to make informed decisions.

There's a lot of misinformation on Reddit that still thinks to this day that the cameras we talk about here all day are not safe to use .

NDAA was never meant to be secure. Its just political ban on Chinese equipment made by US.


But worse than that are people searching and asking for NIS2 cameras, not even knowing what NIS2 is and that single hardware cannot be NIS2 compliant.
