I think my system was hacked around the end of February. It's really scary.

Have you granted access to and given administration rights to anyone that could change the name of your cameras?
If not then the most logical explanation would be that you autosaved your email account and password on one of your computers and left the computer running while you walked away froom it. Or someone might know your email name and password. I doubt it was truly hacked, but probably it was a practical joke by a friend to see how long it would be before you noticed it. Why would a hacker change the names of your cameras to let you know that they were spying on you?

Would agree the person would need your email and password....
So the obivous thing to do is put in a new strong password and don't give it out.
Also on devices like ipads, phones, unless you SIGN OUT of the apps from in settings, you can auto log into the app and have access ( I sign out of my devices I don't personally carry with me )
Morse is faster than texting!
