The present disclosure relates to the technical field of network security, and more particularly to a network monitoring device, a method, apparatus and system for resetting a password of the network monitoring device, and a server.
Each network monitoring device has one fixed serial number used for identifying the uniqueness of the device. One command for restoring a default password is computed by utilizing the serial number and one fixed algorithm.
When a user needs to restore a default password, a device serial number is sent to a password resetting server, and the password resetting server obtains a command by calculation via an algorithm. Then, the command is provided for the user and input into a device. The device also obtains a command by calculation via the device serial number. When the two commands are identical, authentication is passed, and at this time, the password is restored to a factory default value.
The above-mentioned method for resetting the password of the network monitoring device has the following disadvantages.

The drawings illustrated herein are intended to provide a further understanding for the present disclosure, and form a part of the present application. The schematic embodiments and illustrations of the present disclosure are intended to explain the present disclosure, and do not form improper limits to the present disclosure. In the drawings:
In order to make a person skilled in the art better understand the solutions of the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described hereinbelow with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. On the basis of the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained on the premise of no creative work of a person of ordinary skill in the art fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
It is important to note that the description and claims of the present disclosure and terms “first”, “second” and the like in the drawings are intended to distinguish similar objects, and do not need to describe a specific sequence or a precedence order. It should be understood that data used in such a way can be exchanged under appropriate conditions, in order that the embodiments of the present disclosure described here can be implemented in a sequence except sequences graphically shown or described here. In addition, terms “include” and “have” and any inflexions thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, processes, methods, systems, products or devices containing a series of steps or units do not need to clearly list those steps or units, and may include other inherent steps or units of these processes, methods, products or devices, which are not clearly listed.
Firstly, technical terms involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure are explained as follows.
Network monitoring device: a security monitoring device which is provided with a network component and is able to be accessed via an Internet Protocol (IP) address, including a Digital Video Recorder (DVR), a Digital Video Server (DVS), a Network Video Recorder (NVR), a Central Video Recorder (CVR), an IP Camera (IPC), and a transmission and display device.
Characteristic code: a character string generated by a device according to parameters such as a device serial number, a time value, a key version and a random number.
Command: obtained by encrypting the characteristic code by using an asymmetric encryption algorithm private key, wherein the corresponding asymmetric encryption algorithm private key is found according to a key version in the characteristic code.
Asymmetric encryption algorithm: having a pair of keys including a public key and a private key, wherein the public key is open to the public, and the private key is kept by a generator (not open to the public). During encryption, data is encrypted by using the public key, and the encrypted data may be decrypted only by using the private key.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for resetting a password of a network monitoring device is provided. It is important to note that the steps shown in the flowchart of the drawings may be executed in a computer system including, for example, a set of computer-executable instructions. Moreover, although a logic sequence is shown in the flowchart, the shown or described steps may be executed in a sequence different from the sequence here under certain conditions.
In step S102, a first characteristic code is generated according to encrypted content.
In an example embodiment, during delivery of a network monitoring device, an asymmetric algorithm public key would be reserved in the device. Meanwhile, a corresponding asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. Herein, encrypted content may include an identification number and a random value of the network monitoring device, and the identification number may be a device serial number of the network monitoring device.
In step S104, the first characteristic code is sent to a server.
In an example embodiment, when a user needs to reset a password of the network monitoring device, a first characteristic code may be obtained from the network monitoring device by utilizing a client, and then the client sends the first characteristic code to a password server. That is, the network monitoring device sends the first characteristic code to the server via the client. The network monitoring device may directly send the first characteristic code to the server. Herein, under a condition of communication via the client, data exchange may be performed between the client and the network monitoring device by adopting local area network communication, and the client may obtain the first characteristic code from the network monitoring device by utilizing a multicast communication mode. Data exchange may be performed between the client and the server by means of network communication, or may be performed by means of other offline ways, so that the password of the network monitoring device can be normally reset regardless of whether the network monitoring device is accessed to the internet.
In step S106, a password resetting command from the server and a reset password from the client are received, wherein the password resetting command is obtained by encrypting the first characteristic code with adoption of a first key, and returned by the server after receiving the first characteristic code.
In an example embodiment, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first key may be a private key in an asymmetric encryption algorithm, after receiving the first characteristic code, forwarded by the client, from the network monitoring device or after receiving the first characteristic code directly sent by the network monitoring device, the server encrypts the first characteristic code by utilizing the asymmetric algorithm private key, generates a password resetting command, and sends the password resetting command to the network monitoring device. Or, the server sends the password resetting command to the client, and then the client transmits the password resetting command together with a reset password (i.e., new password) to the network monitoring device. Since a first characteristic code is randomly generated, first characteristic codes generated by different network monitoring devices are different, so that a password resetting command obtained by utilizing a first characteristic code may be valid only on a network monitoring device generating the first characteristic code.
In step S108, the password resetting command is decrypted by adopting a second key, and the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password, wherein the first key and the second key are a pair of keys in the asymmetric encryption algorithm.
In an example embodiment, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second key may be a public key in the asymmetric encryption algorithm, after receiving the password resetting command and the reset password, the network monitoring device decrypts the password resetting command by utilizing the asymmetric algorithm public key, and after decryption is successful, the network monitoring device resets the password itself by utilizing the reset password.
According to the method for resetting the password of the network monitoring device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, data is encrypted in a password resetting process by using an asymmetric encryption algorithm. An asymmetric algorithm public key is stored in a network monitoring device, and an asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. A key itself in the network monitoring device is a key open to the public, so that the security of a whole set of password resetting mechanism does not depend on the network monitoring device. The security of the resetting password mechanism can be ensured by means of the security of the password server and the private key in the password server, and the problem in the related art that security is relatively low in the process of restoring a default password and resetting a password is solved, thereby achieving the effect of enhancing the security of the network monitoring device.
In S201, a characteristic code of a network monitoring device is obtained.
In an example embodiment, similar to step S102, when a user needs to reset a password of the network monitoring device, a trigger instruction may be issued to the network monitoring device by utilizing a client, so as to trigger the network monitoring device to generate a first characteristic code according to encrypted content.
In S202, the network monitoring device returns the characteristic code.
In S203, the characteristic code is fed back to a server.
In an example embodiment, step S202 and step S203 are equivalent to step S104. That is, the network monitoring device feeds the first characteristic code back to the client, and then the client feeds the first characteristic code back to a password server. Differently, before feeding the first characteristic code back to the client, the network monitoring device will set a valid period for the first characteristic code. Similarly, the network monitoring device may also directly send the first characteristic code to the server.
In S204, the server converts the characteristic code into a password resetting command by utilizing an asymmetric algorithm private key.
In S205, the server transmits the password resetting command to the client.
In S206, the client transmits the password resetting command and a reset password to the network monitoring device.
In an example embodiment, step S204, step S205 and step S206 are equivalent to step S106. That is, under the condition of communication via the client, after the client forwards the first characteristic code from the network monitoring device to the server, the server encrypts the first characteristic code by utilizing the asymmetric algorithm private key, generates a password resetting command, and sends the password resetting command to the client; and then the client transmits the password resetting command together with a reset password (i.e., new password) to the network monitoring device.
In S207, the network monitoring device judges whether the password resetting command is valid.
That is, after receiving the password resetting command from the server and the reset password from the client, the network monitoring device judges whether the password resetting command is received within the valid period. Herein, when a judging result is that the password resetting command is received within the valid period, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password. Correspondingly, when the judging result is that the password resetting command is not received within the valid period, it is determined that the password is unsuccessfully reset.
The network monitoring device controls the valid period of the first characteristic code, such that the corresponding password resetting command is valid within a specified period. Resetting of the password of the network monitoring device again caused by improper protection of the password resetting command is avoided. The effect of enhancing the stability of password resetting is achieved.
In S208, when the password resetting command is valid, the network monitoring device judges whether the reset password is valid.
In S209, when a judging result is that the reset password is valid, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password, and a result of successful password resetting is returned to the client.
That is, after receiving the password resetting command from the server and the reset password from the client, the network monitoring device judges whether the reset password is valid. In an example embodiment, the network monitoring device mainly judges whether the level of the reset password reaches a level requirement, and when a judging result is that the reset password is valid, namely when it is determined that the level of the reset password reaches the level requirement, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password.
By judging the validness of the reset password, a user is guided to set a password with a relatively high security level, the security problem caused by the fact that a reset password is a weak password set by the user is avoided, and the effect of further enhancing the security of a network monitoring device is achieved.
Herein, when the judging result is that the reset password is valid, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password, and meanwhile, a first reset result may be generated. The first reset result represents that the password is successfully reset. Or, when the judging result is that the reset password is invalid, a second reset result different from the first reset result is generated. The second reset result represents that the password is unsuccessfully reset.
In an example embodiment, in the process of resetting the password of the network monitoring device, the network monitoring device would decrypt the password resetting command by adopting the second key to obtain a second characteristic code, and judge whether the second characteristic code is identical to the first characteristic code, wherein when a judging result is that the second characteristic code is identical to the first characteristic code, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password.
Since a first characteristic code is randomly generated, first characteristic codes generated by different network monitoring devices are different, so that the password resetting command obtained by utilizing the first characteristic code may be valid only on a network monitoring device generating the first characteristic code. It is judged whether a characteristic code transmitted by a server is identical to a locally-stored characteristic code, and when a judging result is that the second characteristic code is identical to the first characteristic code, the password of the network monitoring device is reset by utilizing the reset password, so that targeted password resetting can be realized.
In S302, a first characteristic code from a network monitoring device is received, wherein the network monitoring device generates the first characteristic code according to encrypted content.
In an example embodiment, during delivery of the network monitoring device, an asymmetric algorithm public key would be reserved in the device. Meanwhile, a corresponding asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. When a user needs to reset the password of the network monitoring device, the network monitoring device generates a first characteristic code according to encrypted content, and then a client sends the first characteristic code to a server. The network monitoring device may directly send the first characteristic code to the server. Herein, the encrypted content includes an identification number and a random value of the network monitoring device, and the identification number may be a device serial number of the network monitoring device.
In S304, the first characteristic code is encrypted by utilizing a first key to obtain a password resetting command
In an example embodiment, after receiving the first characteristic code, the server encrypts the first characteristic code by utilizing a first key to obtain a password resetting command, and returns the password resetting command That is, after the client forwards the first characteristic code from the network monitoring device to the server, the server encrypts the first characteristic code by utilizing the asymmetric algorithm private key, and generates a password resetting command.
In S306, the password resetting command is sent to the network monitoring device, wherein when receiving a reset password from the client and the password resetting command, the network monitoring device decrypts the password resetting command by adopting a second key, and resets the password of the network monitoring device by utilizing the reset password, wherein the first key and the second key are a pair of keys in an asymmetric encryption algorithm.
In an example embodiment, the server may send the password resetting command to the client, and then the client transmits the password resetting command together with a reset password (i.e., new password) to the network monitoring device. Since a first characteristic code is randomly generated, first characteristic codes generated by different network monitoring devices are different, so that a password resetting command obtained by utilizing the first characteristic code may be valid only on a network monitoring device generating the first characteristic code, and targeted password resetting can be realized. After receiving the password resetting command and the reset password, the network monitoring device resets the password of the network monitoring device according to the password resetting command and the reset password.

The security of the resetting password mechanism can be ensured by means of the security of the password server and the private key in the password server, and the problem in the related art that security is relatively low in the process of restoring a default password and resetting a password is solved, thereby achieving the effect of enhancing the security of the network monitoring device.
In an example embodiment, during delivery of the network monitoring device, an asymmetric algorithm public key would be reserved in the device. Meanwhile, a corresponding asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. Herein, encrypted content may include an identification number and a random value of the network monitoring device, and the identification number may be a device serial number of the network monitoring device.

That is, the sending element 120 of the apparatus for resetting the password of the network monitoring device sends the first characteristic code to the server via the client. The network monitoring device may directly send the first characteristic code to the server. Herein, under the condition of communication via the client, data exchange may be performed between the client and the sending element 120 by adopting local area network communication, and the client may obtain the first characteristic code from the network monitoring device by utilizing a multicast communication mode. Data exchange may be performed between the client and the server by means of network communication, or may be performed by means of other offline ways, so that the password of the network monitoring device can be normally reset regardless of whether the network monitoring device is accessed to the internet.

The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a system for resetting a password of a network monitoring device.
the network monitoring device 100 is configured to generate a first characteristic code according to encrypted content.
In an example embodiment, during delivery of the network monitoring device 100, an asymmetric algorithm public key would be reserved in the device. Meanwhile, a corresponding asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. Herein, encrypted content may include an identification number and a random value of the network monitoring device 100, and the identification number may be a device serial number of the network monitoring device 100. When a user needs to reset a password of the network monitoring device 100, a first characteristic code may be obtained from the network monitoring device 100 by utilizing the client 200, and then the client 200 sends the first characteristic code to the password server 300. That is, the network monitoring device 100 sends the first characteristic code to the server 300 via the client 200.
The server 300 is configured to receive the first characteristic code, encrypt the first characteristic code by utilizing a first key to obtain a password resetting command, and send the password resetting command to the network monitoring device 100.
In an example embodiment, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first key may be a private key in an asymmetric encryption algorithm, after receiving the first characteristic code, the server 300 encrypts the first characteristic code by utilizing the asymmetric algorithm private key, generates a password resetting command, and sends the password resetting command to the network monitoring device 100. Or, the server sends the password resetting command to the client 200, and then the client 200 transmits the password resetting command together with a reset password (i.e., new password) to the network monitoring device 100. Since the first characteristic code is randomly generated, first characteristic codes generated by different network monitoring devices 100 are different, so that the password resetting command obtained by utilizing the first characteristic code may be valid only on the network monitoring device 100 generating the first characteristic code, and targeted password resetting can be realized.
Herein, data exchange may be performed between the client 200 and the network monitoring device 100 by adopting local area network communication, and the client 200 may obtain the first characteristic code from the network monitoring device 100 by utilizing a multicast communication mode. Data exchange may be performed between the client 200 and the server 300 by means of network communication, or may be performed by means of other offline ways, so that the password of the network monitoring device can be normally reset regardless of whether the network monitoring device 100 is accessed to the internet.
According to the system for resetting the password of the network monitoring device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, data is encrypted in a password resetting process by using an asymmetric encryption algorithm. An asymmetric algorithm public key is stored in the network monitoring device, and an asymmetric algorithm private key is stored in a password server. A key itself in the network monitoring device is a key open to the public, so that the security of a whole set of password resetting mechanism does not depend on the network monitoring device. The security of the resetting password mechanism can be ensured by means of the security of the password server and the private key in the password server, and the problem in the related art that security is relatively low in the process of restoring a default password and resetting a password is solved, thereby achieving the effect of enhancing the security of the network monitoring device.
