UniFi Ubiquiti Network

  UniFi is a wireless community with access points, switches, routers, control units, VoIP telephones, and access management devices. It can be used for the business network as well as for the home network. All devices of the UNIFI network are administered by a Unifi network controller. Unifi's network is better served by allowing its controller to be hosted online using a Unifi Cloud Key with the help of a Ubiquiti account, which allows online access to Unifi devices and a connected customer to perform most operations on a remote basis. Advantages of Ubiquiti Network Easy Deployment: With a cloud-based UniFi Controller, we can easily deploy hardware. Any UniFi equipment connected to the network is automatically recognised by the Unifi Controllers on any UniFi network, where we have UniFi Security Gateway (USG) installed. If the device is adopted by the controller, the device gets the right settings and comes in the network in a short time. Reduced Operating and Hardware Cost: Un...

When it comes to online security, the battle cry among experts lately is: “The future is passwordless!” So, why is passwordless authentication so important? Simple. Passwords are just too easy to guess, hack, or intercept. What’s more, the legacy of password reuse is leading to constant  attack and account vulnerabilities . However, modern-day passwordless authentication goes beyond the use of password and username credentials.  So, whether your organization wants to replace passwords or is determined to keep using them, you must first  understand password weaknesses . Here are a few: Users often create weak passwords that are vulnerable to phishing attacks. Hackers commonly use brute force attacks to hack password credentials.  Users often reuse the same authentication credentials on different accounts. Password methods alone cannot keep hackers away. Remember that we’re not dealing with bored...
