CHAPTER 6 Secure TruVision SVR Installation
Checklist
This chapter describes the steps for making the TruVision SVR installation more secure. The
intention of this chapter is not to cover general Windows security practices and guidelines, but to
assist IT professionals in applying these practices and guidelines to Interlogix video products.
Limit Access to the Users Group
By default, TruVision SVR is installed with access granted to all clients. Access includes retrieval of
video and the ability to modify the recorder configuration. Access can be limited by running LnrSetup
and opening the Security tab.
Review Machine-Wide DCOM Security Settings
Default machine-wide limits should be adjusted to provide adequate security for the Windows
installation. Each product in the Video Suite has different DCOM configurations based on the
included components.
If access to TruVision SVR is limited to the LNRUsers group, then anonymous user and everyone
entries do not have to be given access. Removing these entries from access permission limits and
launch/activation limits will improve security. The LNRUsers group must be allowed to access and
activate DCOM objects, but not launch them.
If access to the TruVision SVR is not limited to the LNRUsers group, anonymous user access can still
be disabled. With this setting, only users that the system knows about will be able to authenticate.
This could be problematic for installations that do not have a domain server. Therefore the
recommendation is that if the TruVision SVR is secured with this method, then the TruVision SVR
and all client machines should be part of a domain.
