Ubiquiti: Change Your Password, Enable 2FA

Summary: Ubiquiti urged customers to change their passwords and enable multi-factor authentication after becoming aware of unauthorized access to certain of its IT systems hosted by a third-party cloud provider it declined to name. The company said it had no evidence of access to databases hosting user data but could not be certain data had not been exposed, which may include names, email addresses, hashed and salted passwords, and addresses and phone numbers where provided.

What you should know: Ubiquiti has shipped more than 85 million devices across over 200 countries, and its latest firmware makes customers authenticate through its cloud systems to reach their own gear - so an incident at a provider Ubiquiti won't name sits directly on the path to managing that hardware.
