Ringis broadening its security options by addingend-to-end encryption for videoson its battery-powered doorbells and cameras.

With the exception of itslower-priced hardwired doorbell, the function is now offered across a large range of devices.

Ring first introduced end-to-end encryption inJanuary 2021as an opt-in setting on the app in the US.

Last summer, it rolled out access to international customers on select Ring devices.

Instead, customers would have to unlock – or decrypt – videos before sharing with anyone.

Ring owners can follow instructions on the company’s website forhow to activate end-to-end encryption.
