A typical IoT attack looks like this: the device connects to a malicious Internet resource directly or through its own VPN, downloads and installs malicious code on itself, after which it begins to be either part of a large bot farm for attacks on third-party resources and use as a resident proxy, or simply spies on your network, trying to intercept anythat data, pull information from open resources or harm in any other way. It is not difficult to protect your network from possible IoT attacks. ...

Not so long ago, Human Security revealed an entire shadow network associated with infected devices and malicious applications. Infected were not only Android TV set-top boxes, but also tablet PCs, wearable devices and even cars. Some IoT devices may even be infected with viruses or Trojans already at the stage of their production or sale, and since it is impossible to imagine a modern company without IoT today, it is important to properly protect your network. Today's world is completely ...

Zyxel reasoned this way: if the L3 functionality is already determined only by the firmware, 99% choose an access switch for the sake of port density, PoE, VLAN, Multicast, and less often for static routing, then here's the base model XMG1930, which is generally L2, but slightly L3. And if your network requires advanced L3 functions, then all this is also there, just buy the appropriate license and get the core-level functionality. You can do this at any time, even when buying a device, even ...

This L3 layer switch has 4 x 10-Gigabit SFP+ slots, 1-Gigabit PoE+ ports for the main fleet of devices, NVR/VoIP optimized interface, support for Nebula cloud service and multi-Gigabit PoE+ ports for Wi-Fi 6 access points. That is, Zyxel has added a maximum of functions to make it the most versatile. In the Zyxel hierarchy, the XGS2220 series refers to access switches, that is, to the lowest level that serves end devices and access points. We are used to the fact that cheap maintenance-free ...

From the point of view of the network, a modern facility can be just one access point connected directly to the WAN from the provider, and there are enough resources on this access point to raise the VPN tunnel to the headquarters, and for NAT, and to configure restrictions for customers and for basic protection of customers and employees. No, but really, why should an expensive security gateway be built on a small facility where the network infrastructure is completely wireless? Modern ...

PDUs with remote disconnection of sockets and groups of sockets, which are often called switchable PDUs, provide remote control of sockets and groups of sockets, allowing operators to quickly overload hung devices, block their activation, turn off excess power at peak loads and balance the load between phases in 3-phase networks by monitoring and disconnecting sockets. PDU (Power Distribution Unit), they are also power distributors, or power distributors, sometimes socket blocks, but this is ...

Technologies are so advanced today that there are many tools for monitoring server racks and the entire computing infrastructure of a small enterprise. These systems also allow you to optimize energy use, manage backup power and control cooling. A server rack is a miniature ecosystem with its own climate, its own electrical part, as well as its own security and protection facilities. But how to ensure the proper functioning of the rack and early troubleshooting? The solution is monitoring ...

The power supply is a critical component of the server, on which not only the stability of operation depends, but also the operating costs. What types of server PSUs are used today and how to choose a power model. Server power supplies, which are used to provide power to server components, have various parameters, such as power, current, and voltage. Depending on the type of server enclosure and its capacity, power supplies are divided into different categories. Conventional ATX power ...

What will happen to your network if the Iron Curtain suddenly falls, and the Global Internet turns into something sovereign and all cross-border channels are blocked? Let's simulate this situation and tell you how to unsign the device from Nebula without Internet access. We have reviewed the Nebula Control Center management system from Zyxel many times. This is a cloud service that allows you to configure and monitor the company's network stack via the Internet, including setting up Wi-Fi, ...
