Networking equipment and IoT device vendor Ubiquiti Networks, one of the biggest sellers of networking gear, including routers, webcams and mesh networks, sent notification emails on January 11, 2021, to its customers stating there had been a security data breach. You may know their product lines such as UniFi, EdgeMax, AirMax, AirFiber, and UFiber. All user profile’s stored information on account.ui.com, a web portal that Ubiquiti makes available to customers who bought one of its products has been compromised. The site is used to manage devices from a remote location and as a help and support portal.
If your business is ever jeopardised, and your customer information exposed, containing the impacts of the breach quickly is critical. Vertex Cyber Security can assist with both the initial response and subsequent investigation to assess root cause and further impacts, including recommendations for strengthening Cyber Security defences.
