New UniFi Dream Machine BEAST, FG Core, 100GbE Tech and MASSIVE PoE+++ Switches

New UniFi UDM Beast, Enterprise FG Core, Enterprise 100G and Enterprise S Revealed

At NAB 2026 in Las Vegas, Ubiquiti Inc. showcased a number of rackmount UniFi devices that have not yet been formally announced or released. These systems were presented alongside existing products, making it necessary to distinguish between current hardware and what appears to be forthcoming or experimental equipment. The devices observed represent a noticeable increase in port density, throughput capability, and overall positioning compared to the current UniFi lineup.

Four specific devices stand out from this showcase: the UniFi Dream Machine Beast, the Enterprise Fortress Gateway Core, the Enterprise 100G switch, and the Enterprise S PoE switch. Based on available observations and supporting information, these products appear to form a cohesive expansion of the UniFi ecosystem into higher-performance enterprise and datacenter environments. However, specifications remain unconfirmed and should be considered provisional until officially published.

UniFi Dream Machine BEAST – A 25GbE UDM!

The UniFi Dream Machine BEAST appears to be a significant evolution of the existing Dream Machine platform, extending beyond the capabilities of current models such as the UniFi Dream Machine Pro Max. Based on observed hardware, this device integrates substantially higher port density, particularly in 10G and 25G connectivity, while also introducing onboard storage via dual SATA bays. This suggests a continued emphasis on combining routing, switching, and application hosting within a single appliance, including UniFi OS services such as Protect and other controller-based functions.

Compared to previous Dream Machine models, the BEAST shifts closer toward an enterprise-focused deployment, particularly in environments requiring direct multi-gigabit connectivity without reliance on additional aggregation switches. However, key system details such as CPU architecture, memory capacity, and throughput performance remain unconfirmed. The absence of official documentation indicates that this device is still in a pre-release or prototype stage, and its final positioning within the UniFi portfolio is not yet defined.

Feature Specification
2.5G RJ45 Ports 2
10G RJ45 Ports 8
10G SFP+ Ports 2
25G SFP28 Ports 2
Storage 2 × SATA drive bays
Form Factor Rackmount
Software UniFi OS (expected)
CPU / RAM Not confirmed
Release Status Unreleased

UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway Core – Truly Enterprise

The UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway Core appears to extend the capabilities of the existing UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway into a significantly higher performance tier. While the current Enterprise Fortress Gateway is already positioned as a high-end UniFi routing platform, the Core variant introduces substantially greater port density and bandwidth, including support for 100G connectivity. This suggests a shift from traditional edge gateway roles toward deployment in core or aggregation layers within larger enterprise or datacenter environments.

The observed hardware indicates a design focused on high-throughput routing and multi-layer network integration, with a combination of 10G copper, 25G SFP28, and 100G QSFP28 interfaces. This represents a notable departure from existing UniFi gateway designs, which typically rely on lower port counts and external switching for aggregation. As with the Dream Machine BEAST, critical specifications such as processing architecture, memory configuration, and pricing remain undisclosed, reinforcing the likelihood that this device is still in a pre-release stage.

Feature Specification
2.5G RJ45 Ports 2
10G RJ45 Ports 8
25G SFP28 Ports 4
100G QSFP28 Ports 4
Power Supply Dual redundant
Form Factor Rackmount
CPU / RAM Not confirmed
Release Status Unreleased

UniFi Enterprise 100G – Next-Level Connections

The UniFi Enterprise 100G appears to be a high-density aggregation or spine switch designed for environments requiring large-scale bandwidth distribution. Its configuration, centered around 25G access ports and 100G uplinks, aligns with common leaf-spine architectures used in enterprise and datacenter networks. Within the current UniFi portfolio, the closest comparison would be aggregation-focused switches such as the UniFi Switch Enterprise Aggregation, although the observed specifications of this device significantly exceed existing models in both port count and total throughput capacity.

This device is likely intended for deployment deeper within network infrastructure rather than at the edge, acting as a central switching layer connecting multiple high-speed access or distribution switches. The combination of 48 × 25G and 6 × 100G ports suggests a focus on scalability and backbone connectivity rather than end-device access. As with the other devices observed, no official documentation, pricing, or detailed hardware specifications have been released, and its final role within the UniFi ecosystem remains unconfirmed.

Feature Specification
25G SFP28 Ports 48
100G QSFP28 Ports 6
Form Factor Rackmount
Switching Role Aggregation / Spine
Cooling Not confirmed
Power Not confirmed
Release Status Unreleased / Prototype

UniFi Enterprise S – PoE Powerhouse

The UniFi Enterprise S appears to be a high-density access switch focused on multi-gigabit connectivity and high-power PoE delivery. Its configuration combines a large number of 2.5G and 10G copper ports, all supporting PoE+++, alongside 25G uplinks for upstream connectivity. Within the current UniFi lineup, there is no direct equivalent, although products such as the UniFi Switch Pro XG 48 PoE operate in a similar space with lower overall port density and more limited PoE capability. The Enterprise S extends this concept by standardising high-power PoE across all access ports.

This design suggests deployment in environments with dense endpoint requirements, including wireless access points, cameras, and AV equipment, where both bandwidth and power delivery are critical. The combination of 2.5G and 10G ports allows for flexibility across different device classes, while the inclusion of 25G uplinks supports integration into higher-speed aggregation layers. As with the other devices observed, there is no confirmed information regarding total power budget, internal hardware, or release timeline, and the device should be considered pre-release.

Feature Specification
2.5G RJ45 PoE+++ Ports 32
10G RJ45 PoE+++ Ports 16
25G SFP28 Ports 4
PoE Standard PoE+++ (802.3bt)
Power Budget Not confirmed
Form Factor Rackmount
Cooling Not confirmed
Release Status Unreleased / Prototype


The four devices observed at NAB 2026 indicate a broader shift in the UniFi portfolio toward higher-performance networking tiers. Collectively, they introduce increased port density, support for 25G and 100G connectivity, and in some cases, significantly expanded power delivery capabilities. Compared to currently available products such as the UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway and UniFi Dream Machine Pro Max, these systems represent a move beyond traditional edge and SMB-focused deployments into roles typically associated with enterprise core, aggregation, and high-density access layers.

However, all four devices remain unannounced and lack confirmed specifications, pricing, and release timelines. As a result, their final positioning and availability cannot be determined with certainty. While the observed hardware suggests a structured expansion into a more complete end-to-end networking stack, any conclusions remain provisional until formal details are released by Ubiquiti Inc..

Vercel piraté via un outil IA tiers qui avait les clés du royaume

Vercel, c'est la plateforme d'hébergement web utilisée par des milliers de développeurs et d'entreprises pour déployer leurs sites et applications (c'est eux qui font Next.js, entre autres).

Un de leurs employés s'est inscrit sur Context.ai, un assistant IA pour la bureautique, en utilisant son compte professionnel Google. Au moment de l'installation, l'app a demandé l'accès à ses emails, ses fichiers, son agenda, bref tout le Google Workspace de la boîte. Il a cliqué "autoriser tout". Erreur classique.

Sauf que Context.ai s'est fait pirater en février. Un de leurs propres employés a chopé un malware (Lumma, un voleur de mots de passe) en téléchargeant des scripts de triche pour Roblox. Le genre de bêtise qui ouvre la porte à tout le reste.

L'attaquant a récupéré l'accès que Context.ai avait sur le Google Workspace de Vercel, avec des permissions très larges : emails, fichiers internes, infrastructure de déploiement.

ShinyHunters, un groupe de pirates connu, a revendiqué le coup sur un forum et mis en vente des clés d'accès, du code source, des données de bases et des clés API de Vercel.

Le PDG de Vercel estime que le nombre de clients touchés est "assez limité", sans donner de chiffres. Mais côté crypto, plusieurs projets hébergés sur la plateforme ont quand même lancé en urgence un changement de tous leurs mots de passe et clés d'accès, ce qui donne une idée de l'ambiance.

Ce qui rend cette affaire intéressante, c'est le mécanisme. Personne chez Vercel n'a été directement attaqué. C'est un outil tiers, un outil IA installé par un employé, qui a servi de pont. L'employé donne un accès large à un service externe, le service se fait pirater trois mois plus tard, et tout le contenu professionnel de l'entreprise se retrouve exposé.

C'est exactement le scénario que les experts en sécurité décrivent depuis un an quand ils parlent des outils IA qui demandent des permissions tentaculaires sur vos comptes pro.

Bref, le vrai problème n'est pas Vercel. C'est le "autoriser tout" sur un outil IA qu'un employé a installé sans se poser de questions.

Pourquoi Pragmata est banni de Reddit ?

Pragmata est sorti il y a maintenant plusieurs jours, et le succès est indéniable. Le jeu a reçu une pluie de critiques positives de la part de la presse, tandis que les joueuses et les joueurs semblent tout aussi conquis, voire davantage. Pourtant, certains modérateurs sur Reddit refusent de voir les choses sous cet angle et n’entendent pas traiter le jeu de cette manière
