Everything be hacked tho If someone wants to bad enough.

 

That's not the point tho, everything internet facing is potentially vulnerable. Sysadmins are paid to create layers and keep one step ahead with patches. If you run your own server only you/your trusted people have the admin access.

Any company not just Hik can easily make it so they could access any of there kit in the world that's on the web and use that data, it's all about if you trust that company.

One of the reasons I wouldn't touch Hik.

 

Bet your ISP has a load of Huawei kit....

Former MI6 officers and security ministers called for greater oversight of Chinese business after an investigation revealed that no national security assessment had been made of

Hikvision’s British operations. Some suggest that the cameras could be hacked from Beijing.

 

The Rotherham factory is a sleeper cell.... every time you set your alarm with the app your location & forward facing camera is captured. A bloke in China tracks your movements his cousin at the takeaway is also an informant & should you have a ZTE mobile you may as well just surrender to the Chinese Embassy
