Genetec Security Center (CCTV / Access Control VMS Platform) — Default Password
Default username and password for the Genetec Security Center (CCTV / Access Control VMS Platform): Admin / (blank). Learn how to log in and how to change the default credentials.
Genetec Security Center is an enterprise unified video surveillance and access control platform. A fresh installation creates an 'Admin' account with no password by default. This account has full administrative access to all cameras, doors, alarms, and system configuration. Genetec's Hardening Guide (documented across versions 5.8–5.12) explicitly instructs administrators to set a password for the Admin account as the first hardening step. The Security Center Server Admin web interface (port 4590 by default) also uses the same blank-password Admin account. Genetec's documentation warns that leaving this account without a password creates critical exposure.
| Username | Password | Access | Version / firmware | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Admin | (blank / none) | Web UI | Security Center 5.x (all documented versions) | Blank password on fresh installation. Security Center Config Tool and Server Admin (port 4590) both use this account. Change immediately per Genetec Hardening Guide. |
