@dashrender said in Ubiquity breached, downplayed the issue:
if this was such a huge breach - where was the huge coverage back in jan? Frankly i don't even recall hearing about it back in January. Until this, whatever you want to call it, I don't recall that at all.
Dash and I just discussed this out of band. The reason that this wasn't seen more is that the system that was allegedly hacked, the one that UBNT said was at risk, is the one with the credentials to Dream Machines and similar devices and accounts from those devices that Unifi users can make voluntarily. Normal business users of Unifi and Edge gear were not in the list of potential impacts.
He wasn't aware that UBNT had notified all of the potentially impacted customers by email, because he is a customer but not one that was potentially impacted. They didn't notify we who use local accounts, since we aren't affected. So there was a lot more notification than he had realized. The news outlets back in January and even Krebs agree that the email notification and notification of the media was real and handled just fine.
