ACTi Corporation — 00:0F:7C (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- ACTi is registered to MAC prefix
00:0F:7Cin the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:0F:7C, that block was registered by ACTi — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- Security-relevant: 2017 CVEs describe default/hardcoded admin credentials and an unauthenticated factory-reset endpoint on ACTi camera firmware, CVSS 10.0, no vendor fix confirmed at disclosure — worth surfacing to users doing device-risk lookups on this OUI.
About this vendor.
ACTi Corporation is a Taiwan-based (Taipei) manufacturer of IP video surveillance equipment, holding a single confirmed IEEE MA-L block, 00:0F:7C. Unlike a bare shell registration, ACTi shows verifiable operating substance: a named, multi-series hardware line (D-series, B-series, I-series, and E-series IP cameras, plus NVR/NVR3 network video recorders), membership in the ONVIF interoperability standard, and an active corporate web presence. Independent corroboration for the device category comes from the security-research side rather than marketing copy — a cluster of 2017 CVEs (CVE-2017-3184, CVE-2017-3185, CVE-2017-3186) disclosed against ACTi's D/B/I/E-series cameras describes concrete firmware behavior: an unauthenticated factory-reset endpoint, admin credentials leaked via a GET request, and hardcoded default admin credentials, rated CVSS 10.0 with no vendor fix confirmed as of the March 2017 disclosure. That combination — a single OUI block paired with a real, actively-shipping product line independently referenced by CERT/CVE researchers — is what distinguishes this entry from a registration-only vendor and supports finalizing rather than abstaining. No MA-M or MA-S sub-allocations under ACTi Corporation were found in the cached registry snapshots, so the 00:0F:7C block appears to be the company's entire IEEE footprint.

- IEEE assignment date
- Unknown — IEEE's public the IEEE MA-L registry publishes no assignment/registration date column; not fabricated [Confirmed absence] — the IEEE MA-L registry
- Third-party date artifact (not an IEEE fact)
- maclookup.app lists "12 February 2004" as initial registration and "17 November 2015" as last-updated for 00:0F:7C; this is a third-party database artifact, not an IEEE-published date, and must not be attributed to IEEE [Confirmed as artifact, not used as allocated_date] — https://maclookup.app/macaddress/000f7c
