TRENDnet immediately release update firmware which eliminates the published hack for all related product models. TRENDnet recalled all affected products and dedicated substantive resources to bring awareness to the need for a firmware update. Starting February 2012 and continuing through to the present, TRENDnet publicized IP Camera firmware update remedies through the media, through retail and distribution partners, through Internet service providers, and directly to end users. Additionally, TRENDnet  forwarded a hack alert to over three hundred global internet service providers.
