Well, it’s not a secret backdoor if you disclose it.

 

“You ever flashy thinged me?”

“No.”

“I ain’t playing with you, K, you ever flashy thinged me”?

“No.”

Different people deploy them different ways … good or bad …

 

The biggest problem I have with this is when a vendor doesn’t disclose this 
information and that a customer cannot choose to remove this option if the 
vendor insists on putting it in place.

I don't exactly see the problem, especially with a PTP radio that should only 
be accessible from within your network and possibly only from management 
subnets/VLANs, too. If it's a public facing piece of equipment like a router, 
then sure, I agree.

Totally disagree with this… we would never let a vendor into our network if 
there was a possibility of this.  It puts our network at risk from their 
stupidity …. 

 

We aggressively look at this when new products are coming into the network - 
realizing that sometimes there’s no way to detect it but it’s a question we 
ask, tests that we run, and hope that our confidence in this being possible is 
low.

Yep.  There are legitimate needs for the factory to have a backdoor
