Ubiquiti, an organization whose prosumer-grade routers have gotten synonymous with security and manageability is being blamed for concealing a “catastrophic” security breach — and following 24 hours of silence, the organization has now given a statement that doesn’t deny any of the whistle-blower’s claims.
In January, the creator of routers, Internet-connected cameras, and other networked gadgets, revealed what it said was “unauthorized access to certain of our information technology systems hosted by a third-party cloud provider.” The notification said that, while there was no proof the intruders accessed client information, the organization couldn’t preclude the likelihood that they got clients’ names, email addresses, cryptographically hashed passwords, addresses, and telephone numbers. Ubiquiti suggested clients to change their passwords and enable two-factor authentication.
