Security Notes

  • Self-Signed Certificate: The Device Portal uses HTTPS with a self-signed certificate. The client disables SSL verification by default (ssl=False). Use only over a trusted network.

  • Basic Authentication: Credentials are sent via Basic Auth (base64-encoded). Use only on a LAN behind a firewall. Do not expose the Device Portal port (default 11443) to the internet.
