Inethiwekhi ye-Mesh yethulwa okokuqala njengendlela yokulungisa izinkinga ze-Wi-Fi ezifana nokungatholakali okwanele kanye nesivinini esincane. Ngaphezu kwalokho, yakhangisa ukuthi iziteshi eziyisisekelo ngeke zisadinga ukubekwa kuzo zonke izindlu noma amahhovisi ukuze kugwenywe izindawo ezingemukelwa kahle. Lezo zithembiso ziye zagcinwa ngokwezinga elikhulu. Kodwa-ke, ukukhathazeka okusha kwe-cybersecurity kuye kwavela.

Ingqikithi yokuphepha kwenethiwekhi ye-Mesh

Amanethiwekhi e-Mesh ayindlela efanelekile yokusungula noma yokuthuthukisa inethiwekhi enganele noma ephelelwe yisikhathi noma ukusetha entsha emasangweni angaphezu kwelilodwa e-Wi-Fi. Lo mqondo wabonakala okokuqala ngeminyaka yawo-1980s ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwezempi kodwa awuzange utholakale ukuze uthengelwe umphakathi kwaze kwaba ngu-2015. Izizathu ezinkulu zokuthi waduma sekwephuzile kakhulu kwakuyizindleko, ukudideka mayelana nokusetha, kanye nokuntuleka kwefrikhwensi yomsakazo okwenza ukuqaliswa kwangaphambi kwesikhathi kuphumelele. .

Kusukela ukuthengiswa kwenethiwekhi ye-mesh, amafemu ambalwa nezinkampani ezimbalwa ezaziwayo ze-hardware zaqala ukuthengisa "ama-mesh node" abizayo kodwa anamandla kakhulu. Lezi zisetshenziswa zenethiwekhi zinamarediyo angenantambo angahlelwa ukuthi azilungise abe yinethiwekhi egqagqene ngaphandle kokuphathwa okumaphakathi.

Ama-Node ayiyunithi eyinhloko kunethiwekhi ye-mesh, hhayi indawo yokufinyelela noma isango. I-node ngokuvamile inamasistimu omsakazo amabili kuya kwamathathu kanye ne-firmware eyivumela ukuthi ixhumane namanodi aseduze. Ngokuxhumana, ama-node angakha isithombe esiphelele sayo yonke inethiwekhi, ngisho noma amanye engekho ebangeni kwamanye. Ama-adaptha e-Wi-Fi eklayenti kumafoni, amathebulethi, amakhompyutha aphathekayo, amasistimu amageyimu, izinto zikagesi, namanye amadivayisi angaxhumeka kulawa ma-node njengokungathi angamasango enethiwekhi avamile noma izindawo zokufinyelela.

Umthelela ophazamisayo

Ngo-2021, i-Amazon Web Services (AWS) yethula inethiwekhi yayo ye-mesh, iSidewalk. Le nethiwekhi ye-mesh ingakhula kuphela uma kunamadivayisi anele abasebenzisi futhi uma abanikazi bayo bethemba i-Amazon ngedatha edlula kunethiwekhi yabo. Ngokuzenzakalela, i-Sidewalk isethwe ukuthi ‘ivuliwe,’ okusho ukuthi abasebenzisi kufanele bathathe isinyathelo sokuphuma esikhundleni sokungena. 

I-Amazon izamile ukufaka ezokuphepha eSidewalk, futhi abanye abahlaziyi bayincomile imizamo yayo. Ngokusho kwe-ZDNet, izinyathelo zokuphepha kwe-inthanethi zase-Amazon ezivikela ubumfihlo bedatha zibalulekile ekuqinisekiseni abasebenzisi abangaba khona ukuthi idatha yabo iphephile. Emhlabeni wamadivayisi ahlakaniphile axhumeka ngokwandayo, sekulula ukuthi idatha iputshuzwe noma igqekezwe.

Kodwa-ke, abanye abahlaziyi bayangabaza ukuthi inkampani yezobuchwepheshe ihlela kanjani ukukhulisa lezi zinyathelo zokuphepha. Yize i-Amazon ithembisa ukuphepha nobumfihlo kubasebenzisi bayo, ochwepheshe baphakamisa ukuthi izinkampani ezinanoma iyiphi idivayisi enikwe amandla i-Sidewalk kufanele ziphume kunethiwekhi. Baphinde baphikisa ngokuthi abantu/imindeni kufanele icabangele ukuthatha izinyathelo zokuphepha ezifanayo kuze kube yilapho abacwaningi sebethole ithuba lokuhlola imithelela yobuchwepheshe. Isibonelo, ingozi engaba khona yamanethiwekhi anezikhala ukuthi amalungu ayo angaba nesibopho esisemthethweni uma elinye ilungu lenza ubugebengu be-inthanethi ngenethiwekhi. 

Imithelela yokuphepha kwenethiwekhi yemeshi

Imithelela ebanzi yokuphepha kwenethiwekhi ye-mesh ingase ihlanganise: 

• Amafemu amaningi ezobuchwepheshe nabanye abathengisi bezinkampani zangaphandle abahlinzeka ngamanethiwekhi anezikhala, aqhudelana nohulumeni basekhaya.
• Ukutshalwa kwezimali okunyukile kuzixazululo ze-cybersecurity eziqondene namanethiwekhi anezikhala njengoba kuzobandakanya ukwabelana komphakathi kwezindawo zokufinyelela.
• Ohulumeni abacubungula izinyathelo zokuphepha ku-inthanethi zalawa manethiwekhi anezikhala ukuze baqinisekise ukuthi awephuli imithetho yobumfihlo bedatha.
• Ukuxhumana okuvikeleke kakhulu emiphakathini yasemaphandleni njengoba ngeke kudingeke ukuthi ithembele kusevisi emaphakathi kanye nabahlinzeki be-cybersecurity.
• Abantu bakwazi ukwabelana ngomkhawulokudonsa wabo we-inthanethi ngokuvikeleke kakhulu nomakhelwane noma abangani phakathi kwamanethiwekhi abo anezikhala.

Imibuzo ongaphawula ngayo

• Uma indawo yangakini inenethiwekhi yemeshi, injani isipiliyoni?
• Yiziphi ezinye izingozi ezingaba khona zokwabelana nabanye ngokufinyelela ku-inthanethi?
