K) How secure is Access Over IP?

If you are accessing the switch via IP then these often use 128 bit SSL encryption, and users must enter security codes which are hardware-based as opposed to software-based, making it even more difficult for any potential hacker. Devices also capture, digitise, and compress the video signal before transmitting to a remote PC, giving secure real-time control. Some Manufacturers provide proprietary software and some use standard Network browsers to provide access. Whichever is the case they all provide hardware based security giving you the best possible protection from intrusion.
