Securing your wireless network
On July 2nd
Hey there!
It’s me, Buddy Martin, General Manager of Entech, and I thought I’d try out our new Entech Blog by sharing a few tips with you about securing your wireless network.
Over the next few blog posts, I plan on reviewing some crucial tips you’ll need to do to assure your wireless (also called “WIFI”) network is secure.
Keep in mind, if your wireless network is unsecured -
- Anybody with basic computer knowledge can connect to your network.
- Anybody may connect to your network and download illegal material.
- Anybody may access your network and see exactly what you are doing on the Internet.
- Wireless networks are vulnerable to hackers and malicious software.
- Anybody with a computer nearby might be able to access the information stored on your computer.
Having a wireless network sure is convenient, however, I want to assure you’re safe and secure!
