OKLAHOMA CITY–Homeowners and business owners often use surveillance cameras as a measure of security.
Now, one advocacy group says they should be used in our state’s nursing homes as well.
Wes Bledsoe is the founder of A Perfect Cause, an organization dedicated to ending abuse in nursing homes.
Bledsoe said, “Residents when they’re in these facilities, right now we don’t know what’s happening to them. And we have residents that we know are being abused by staff.”
He says families have a right to know what goes on behind the walls of these facilities.
He said, “Well this is Senate Bill 587 and we refer to it as the Protect Our Loved Ones Act, or POLO Act.”
SB587 would require nursing homes to provide surveillance cameras in the residents’ rooms if families want it.
Bledsoe said, “It would provide video monitoring, video only, in the common areas as well as the residents’ rooms. It would also provide audio monitoring, which is recommended by the silver-haired legislature, audio monitoring in the bathrooms and bathing areas.” (more…)

Home Network security seems to be a simple thing these days. It is not difficult to set your router with the proper security measures to stop others from hopping on your WiFi signal and getting that internet service you are likely over paying for.
A NEW wallpaper that can filter out Wifi and certain other frequencies has been developed by French researchers: and they say it could be priced the same as classic wallpaper.
Of course this magical block that keeps out WiFi pirates really comes down to a password. It’s a tiny bit more complicated than that, but for the most part this is all it takes to make your home network private instead of branding it a hotspot and sharing it like the town bicycle.
But of course there are ways around these security measures, and if you want to keep signal thieves out of your network, here’s a product that will likely stop them dead in their tracks.
With all the logic of a giant wall of stones, this solution has a coating of silver ink that can be embedded into wallpaper to block out certain electromagnetic frequencies while only allowing certain “important” signals to pass through.
Pierre Lemaitre-Auger of the Grenoble Institut Polytechnique said the wallpaper – called Métapapier or Metapaper – would give people and businesses reassurance about electromagnetic radiation from Wifi and mobile phone signals. (more…)

How would you feel if you installed a security camera video system in your home for protection only to find out your private activities are being viewed live on the internet?
Video feeds from some home user’s Internet security cameras — including children’s rooms and bathroom scenes — are being seen by others around the world because of a coding error that is part of the camera’s software.
I would not want to be the programmer that has to explain this problem.
TrendNet security camera’s flaw was discovered after word of some shared footage spread on various message boards and blogs in the past month.
The BBC reported that messages about the flaw included the following:
“Someone caught a guy in Denmark (traced to ip) getting naked in the bathroom.” Another said: “I think this guy is doing sit-ups.”
One user wrote, “baby spotted,” causing another to comment, “I feel like a pedophile watching this.”
California-based TrendNet told the BBC that it’s in the process of releasing software updates to fix the problem, which it learned about on Jan. 12.
The company is also emailing those owners who registered their cameras. It’s not clear how many are affected. A company spokesman said it could be fewer than 1,000 consumers in the United Kingdom and globally “most likely less than 50,000.”
That’s a lot depending on how many people decide to file lawsuits. With The U.S. being such a litigious society, you can just see the lawsuits mounting now – depending on how many U.S. customers were affected.
Tech website The Verge wrote an extensive report about the exploit last Friday.
The vulnerability was first noted on a Jan. 10th blog said the BBC:
- The author discovered that after setting up one of the cameras with a password, its video stream became accessible to anyone who typed in the correct net address.
- In each case, this consisted of the user’s IP address followed by an identical sequence of 15 characters.
- The writer then showed how the Shodan search engine (which specializes in finding online devices) could be used to discover cameras vulnerable to the flaw.
TrendNet plans to have revised firmware available this week. The company posted the following warning on its website on Monday informing users of the specific camera models and versions that have the flaw:
It is TrendNet’s understanding that video from select TrendNet IP cameras may be accessed online in real time. Upon awareness of the issue, TrendNet initiated immediate actions to correct and publish updated firmware which resolves the vulnerability.
“We are scrambling to discover how the code was introduced and at this point it seems like a coding oversight,” a company spokesman told the BBC.

Have you ever wondered what a potential burglar is considering or who might be a burglar in disguise? You may be surprised. Here is a list that comes from a Texas based security company that is taking steps to educate its customers on how to avoid becoming victims. The list takes a humorous approach to giving people some insight into the diverse and surprising forms a burglar can take, the indicators of wealth burglars notice, how they know no one is home, and other factors they consider.
The list highlights the importance of supplementing a dependable security system with a deeper awareness of seemingly harmless visitors and how a residence or business can attract a burglar’s attention. It is meant to give you some tips to avoid being a victim of theft or something worse.
A good home security system is one line of defense. You may, however, want to consider adding surveillance cameras to the outside of your home. You can purchase a camera that uses motion detection which then turns on a flood light. A burglar is not going to go past this first line of defense. If a bright, flood light comes on, they will move on to a non-lighted home. Personally, I want to stop anyone from even attempting to breach my home security system. With most home security systems, if a door or window is opened when the system is armed, the panel box “beeps” for sixty seconds before alarms are set off. Then, you receive a call from the security company, and if you don’t answer, they call your back-up number. If no one answers at the back-up number, it is only then that the police are notified. Therefore, it could take 10-15 minutes at best before the police are at your door.
I accidentally set off my alarm in the middle of the night one time and punched in my code once to turn it off. I was actually supposed to punch in my code twice if the alarm is accidentally set off. I didn’t have my phone turned on, was in a sleepy stupor and returned to bed. The police showed up an hour later. I did not find that experience to be very comforting and even sixty seconds seems like a long time to me before alarms are set off. An intruder can do a lot of harm to you in that short amount of time if they aren’t scared off by your beeping sound. Many home invasions are committed by people on drugs who are not thinking logically – like they should run when they hear your alarm box beeping.
Here is that list: (more…)

Well here is a huge problem. You need a deterrent at your home or work and cannot afford a full blown security camera system due to economic conditions. Join the crowd! Crime is up and money is down and the bad guys are eying your place as a target. There are plenty of low cost video security systems available as well as some really cheap options that may scare away the bad guys.
Dummy cameras are a good option as long as you follow a few rules. First of all, some of our customers have heard a rumor that dummy cameras are illegal. I am not sure how that rumor started, but I do know there have been law suits pertaining to companies setting up dummy cameras where the plaintiff claimed a false sense of security. This has happened in situations where a person thinks they are being monitored while being a victim of a crime -not often but this can happen. You can also get sued for giving a person a dirty look but that’s another story for a frivolous lawsuit lawyer to explain. (more…)
