Vietnam MPS Issues Mandatory Cybersecurity Standard for IP Surveillance Cameras

Vietnam's Ministry of Public Security (MPS) issued Circular No. 48/2026/TT-BCA, introducing QCVN 11:2026/BCA – Basic Cybersecurity Requirements for IP Surveillance Cameras, which came into effect on July 1, 2026. Replacing QCVN 135:2024/BTTTT, this regulation applies to all businesses manufacturing, importing, and selling IP surveillance cameras in Vietnam and transfers regulatory responsibilities from the Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) to the Ministry of Public Security (MPS). To enhance the cybersecurity of IP surveillance cameras, the regulation requires products to incorporate the following key security features:

• A unique default password mechanism,
• Identity authentication and access control,
• Secure communications and data encryption,
• Secure firmware and software update mechanisms,
• Protection against unauthorized access and common cyberattacks, and
• Logging and system integrity protection.

In addition, the medium and high-risk IP surveillance cameras are required to complete the applicable conformity assessment and compliance procedures to be legally placed in the Vietnamese market. The detailed product scope and implementation requirements will be announced separately by the MPS.
