Fiddling with IoT home security

Last year I installed an IoT home security system; back then I did not bother to connect it to the internet mostly because of my own laziness but also because IoT most of the times rhymes with: overpriced crap prone to also being a security nightmare.
I am not going to name the brand, but it is fairly well known and its pricing is not on the cheap side (€ 700 for main unit and external keyboard).
Hardware wise it is well made, just by looking at it one could tell that quite some engineering was poured into it, it has all kind of expansion cards and the quality seems more than decent.
Software, hard to say though.
Just to be on the safe side, I have put it into its own network segment which is segregated from the rest of the network.
