The security issue you mentioned I think only affected when they handle access to the cameras. I think you can set up a VPN and then turn off remote access on the NVR, so it seems possible to avoid that issue.

That being said that's a lot of work for something they should have handled securely in the first place and doesn't give me much confidence about their security in general.

It's an interesting read since the cause of the issue was something to do with a database change that caused an overlap of groups.
