Proposed change to ReadyNas firmware

Because of network topology it is often not possible to protect the ReadyNAS device from internal (to the network) hacks or security compromises.

 

Passwords are a good start.

 

What would be a great addition and probably not too much development is to implement a password failure count and after so many failures refuse attampts for 30 minutes or so. 

 

Make it a configuration option.
