Many companies, simply to save some money in the short term, choose to purchase equipment from different manufacturers that is previously used or “like new” through unauthorized resellers, without knowing the risk they run by not contacting the certified official channel. As is known in the IT sector, or any other sector, a counterfeit device is a danger, so it is vitally important to ensure the authenticity of a product when purchasing any device to install on your network.
What risks is my network exposed to with this equipment?
Multiple companies have already been victims of one of these increasingly common technological frauds due to the purchase of products that did not have the authenticity of the manufacturer. Through these counterfeits, affected customers run the risk of attack and that their network is compromised, how? Simply that the reseller not authorized by the manufacturer’s official certified channel, may have administrator access to the devices or even come to experience operational problems.
These are just some of the dangers that could come to occur by purchasing devices through a supplier not certified or not authorized by the manufacturer which, once again, emphasizes the great importance of acquiring equipment through the official certified channel. By guaranteeing that the product is authentic, it is possible to completely avoid those possible security threats that could occur and which would have a serious impact on the affected company.
