Flock camera data breach: what was exposed

The Flock camera incident was a physical compromise of one deployed device, not a demonstrated breach of Flock Safety’s centralized cloud platform.

The hacker collective stegan0gram said it removed the camera from above a roadway and copied much of its local storage.

Flock Safety said its cloud infrastructure had never been compromised and that no customer data had been accessed or exfiltrated through a cloud attack.

What the recovered Flock camera revealed The camera ran Android and contained about 20 Flock-built applications for tasks including motion detection, image capture, object classification, uploads and remote updates.

The recovered key and media came from storage on a camera that had been physically removed.
