If your camera manufacturer offers an app or cloud service with two-factor authentication, enable it. This requires a secondary code sent to your phone or authentication app, ensuring that even if someone guesses your password, they cannot access your camera. 3. Update Firmware Regularly

Regularly check the manufacturer's website for security updates. If your camera is several years old and no longer receives updates, it may be time to upgrade to a more secure model.
