Default Usernames, Passwords and
IP Addresses for Surveillance Cameras

Leaving default passwords is dangerous and makes it easy for even inexperienced attackers to take control, brick or watch your video feed. Worse, since many cameras are made available over the Internet (often because of another risky practice, port forwarding or because the manufacturer defaulted UPnP on), the cameras may be attacked from anywhere in the world.

Manufacturer List Default Passwords

While DOITEK strongly recommends using complex passwords, users may still need to know defaults when cameras are first configured or factory defaulted, and finding these credentials can be aggravating, with many manufacturers burying them in PDF manuals or not documenting them at all.

For each manufacturer, we list the username first and pasword section in the following format: username/password. Where manufacturers have multiple defaults, or differences in newer/older firmwares, we have noted it:

• ACTi: admin/123456 or Admin/123456
• Amcrest: admin/admin
• American Dynamics: admin/admin or admin/9999 
• Arecont Vision: none
• AvertX: admin/1234
• Avigilon: Previously admin/admin, changed to Administrator/<blank> in later firmware versions
• Axis: Traditionally root/pass, new Axis cameras require password creation during first login (note that root/pass may be used for ONVIF access, but logging into the camera requires root password creation)
• Basler: admin/admin
• Bosch: None required, but new firmwares (6.0+) prompt users to create passwords on first login
• Brickcom: admin/admin
