Final Thoughts on Ubiquiti
Summary: KrebsOnSecurity retracted a series of articles about a purported breach at Ubiquiti after its sole source was indicted by federal prosecutors for alleged wrongdoing, including providing false information to the press. The author states he no longer has faith in the source's veracity, has apologized to Ubiquiti, and has removed the articles from his website.
What you should know: The retraction rests on a single-source indictment that included false information to the press, which is a reminder that a breach narrative can collapse entirely when its only witness is the person under indictment.
