News: Unprecedented Wave of Attacks on D-Link Routers and NAS Devices
D-Link’s aging NAS devices and home routers are under threat, leaving users' sensitive data vulnerable. Over 92,000 NAS units are at risk, with D-Link advising users to replace the devices due to the lack of available patches. Additionally, home routers have become targets for the "Goldoon" botnet, primarily due to a decade of unapplied patches.
Network service providers can play a critical role in defending against these threats. By implementing platform-agnostic, automated protection at the gateway level, they can secure these devices and provide real-time defense, ensuring the safety of all connected devices. ???
