This is a terrible public notification. What is the scope of the breach? Their forum software? The accounts Unifi customers can use for cloud-based admin of their private networks? Support tickets? It doesn't inspire one iota of confidence. Quite the opposite.

Argh, why do I learn about this from HN when they pretty much force me through the cloud login with UDM-Pro. Nothing in the dashboard. Also I think http://unifi/ is crap from a security standpoint. Their threat management also seems to be just some kind of a bad joke.They could for example do a nice hardware based honeypot that you have to untrigger with physical access. They could offer so much more for prosumers pr…
