HDCVI

High Definition Composite Video Interface (HDCVI) is brand new to the CCTV and security camera industry.As the HDCVI technology inventor and patent owner, Dahua has made it as a global open standard, providing open access for any third part, including competing manufacturers, to use HDCVI. Partnering with the HDcctv Alliance allows manufacturers to better collaborate on implementation of HDCVI 2.0 technology – carving the path for wider and quicker market acceptance.

Controversies

In September 2016, the largest DDoS attack to date, on KrebsOnSecurity.com, was traced back to a botnet. According to Internet provider Level 3, the most commonly infected devices in this botnet were Dahua cameras and DVRs.[2][3]

HackRead reports that over one million Dahua cameras have been infected with the BASHLITE malware.[4]
