How to View CCTV Cameras?

15 October 2009

Hacking CCTV cameras? No, just live streaming from the Internet.


First of all, this is not illegal. It's illegal when you need to break in CCTVs which needs login access. Most of the CCTVs you get to see online which allow public viewing are probably already for public purposes.









Steps

3. If it prompts to install an ActiveX, then install it. It would be used to view the camera, where you can pan or zoom if it allows you to.



This is not a guide on how to hack into CCTV cameras and view them for bad purposes! But you can view these live stream cameras anywhere in the world just to take a peek. Sometimes you might see unwanted stuff? Who knows.
