Project idea discussion. A family asked us how they can tell whether their home smart-camera footage and personal data are secure. We think the answer should be a guided self-audit anyone can run. What would you check first: camera cloud retention, account sharing, chatbot data settings, or router defaults?

Account sharing and retention settings first. Most people I help have cameras recording to a cloud account shared with three ex-household members, retained forever. The technology is rarely the weakest link.
