In the funniest disclosure I’ve read in some time (well, it would be if it wasn’t so terribly dangerous), it turns out that these teleconferencing units had a hardcoded admin account with extra permissions built in with username BlackWidow. In the first “fix”, AMX basically changed the user to Batman. Poor show.
