"Market Leading" and "Internally tested by their own experts" means nothing. At least Honeywell's app states that it uses AES. It does also perform per session RSA key exchange too, but for some reason they don't mention that. The only thing that lets it down security wise is that there's no certificate, so the connection is susceptible to a man in the middle attack. I know that Texecom hastily added AES, but they generate a fixed key and that's not good either. Yeti, do you have more info as to the actual encryption used by Eaton ?

datadiffusion Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Latest V6 Eaton firmware is all about security, security, security, there must have been a major encryption change of some kind as all app users have to reregister, this has not happened with previous incremental updates.

Should i show the manager this? Yes show him it's all public But he probably already knows , unless his colleagues don't have a cess to trade? Is this trade or public thread? If public Eaton need to sort themselves out , they could really give someone like texe a run for then money , they would even more to DIY and make more money 9651 however is still being installed , I surprised they still make it or is it just millions of left overs?

datadiffusion Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 We've had this conversation before, my views on the enhanced security 2-way brings haven't changed which I'd have to say are shared by almost everyone here and a pentester or two.

GalaxyGuy Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 You wouldn't normally need to open anything for outbound traffic. Not on a home router anyway and not port forwarding, as that's for routing incoming traffic. Ie. For the app connecting back to your panel when you're not on your home network. Ensure the panel gateway address (your router internal IP address) and the panel netmask in the panel menu 56.4 are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As above you would only need that for control when your not in, as most of the traffic should be going out Quote www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.
