Summary:

How to set up using HTTPS for security in SSM 2.10.

Step-by-Step:

Navigate to the Maintenance tab in SSM Core Server. (Figure 1)

Figure 1

1) Unique Certificate
   - SSL using SSM own installed certificate
   - The certificate should be updated when SSM is upgraded.
     (Then the expiration date of certificate will extend automatically.)

2) HTTPS option on SSM
   - SSL between SSM Client and Server

3) HTTPS option on Device (NVR/Camera)
   - SSL between SSM server and Device
   - For SSL, each Device should set its own SSL option.

4) Password Encryption
   - Currently, AES encryption use for password. The AES key is hidden in SSM.
   - Because RTSP auth did not support Hashing, SSM doesn’t use Hashing to login.
     Now RTSP auth can support Hashing so HQ is considering Hashing for password encryption.
