The NaCl Web Plugin, like other NPAPI or ActiveX plugins, comes with inherent security risks. These plugins run native code directly on your computer, which can potentially be exploited by malicious actors. Furthermore, these technologies are old and are no longer maintained with the same rigor as modern web standards. It is generally considered safe to install the plugin if you download it directly from the camera’s interface (as the file is stored on your local network, not downloaded from the internet). However, enabling ActiveX or running legacy plugins on your main workstation is generally discouraged for security reasons. It is best practice to use a dedicated, isolated computer or virtual machine for managing your surveillance equipment.
