However, since search engines stay at each one’s disposal, you might need to use such apps like CamBlocker when webcams are connected to your PC. Not only to restrict other people’s access to your webcam, but to protect yourself from such threats.

The main window of the applications displays all of the connected webcams. This way, you can easily block the ones you are not interested in or don’t use anymore.

You can view notifications and alerts, as well as block video capture when the device is plugged in.

What’s more, CamBlocker enables you to lock the application so no one from your office or home access the webcam. By selecting the proper option from the drop-down list (located in the title bar), you can easily set up a new password and block CamBlocker.

This way, each time unauthorized users want to unlock the webcam, the application will display a small window that requires them to specify the password in order to run properly.
