In addition to E2EE, Ring added support for authenticator apps, which offer an extra layer of security over standard two-factor SMS. And the Ring and Neighbors apps now uses CAPTCHA, which can help prevent bots and spammers from taking over your account. Ring has had a spectacularly spotty track record when it comes to its security cameras. Users’ passwords have been leaked, and hackers have harassed folks in their homes. Ring has also been under scrutiny for its relationship with law enforcement, from providing freebies to working with police departments around the country to obtain possibly incriminating security footage. This is probably why the company is emphasized that enabling end-to-end encryption means “no one” has access to any security footage but the person who sets it up.
