Network Security Devices Are the Front Door to an IT Environment, but Smart Power Strips Are the Unlocked Back Door: A Call to Action for Data Center Security

In the ever-evolving world of data center security, attention has primarily been focused on network security devices—the metaphorical front doors—keeping them locked tight against cyberattacks. However, hackers are now shifting their focus to the less-guarded back doors: the smart power strips powering data center racks. These often-overlooked devices, with their outdated firmware and default passwords, provide an easy entry point for attackers into otherwise secure environments.

In this article, we delve into the critical role that smart power strip firmware plays in data center security. We explore the rising threat landscape and outline best practices for keeping these devices up to date to prevent unauthorized access. Finally, we highlight how Nlyte Software’s Device Management Solution can transform the way data centers manage firmware across a heterogeneous array of devices, enhancing operational efficiency and security. Protecting your data center isn’t just about securing the front door anymore—it’s about making sure every door is locked tight.
