An example of such a threat is getting an unknown INTEL_CE_LINUX <\/span>device on your network<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n You\u2019re probably wondering how this device got your password and connected to your network. In this article, you will find all the answers. We will explain what INTEL_CE_LINUX actually is and how to handle the situation when INTEL_CE_LINUX appears on your network. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The most common concerns and queries of users who encountered this issue are:<\/span><\/p>\n In some instances, your authorized <\/span>gateway<\/span><\/a> may appear in the form of INTEL_CE_LINUX.
