That concern has taken on new urgency following reports that one of Flock's key investors also backs a company whose technology is designed to compromise camera systems. The connection between the two companies – their shared investor – came to light after an X post from @OrwellDay alleged that Flock's lead investor also backed Toka. Flock sells camera systems that help agencies identify vehicles, share information, and search video data. At Black Hat, Forescout researchers demonstrated a related risk by intercepting real camera feeds and sending pre-recorded video to network video recorders. For cities deploying Flock cameras and similar systems, the question is no longer only who can access the video.
