Wireless Networks
Many people set up wireless networks the easy way:
(1) Open box.
(2) Plug in the new wireless hardware.
(3) Enjoy the wireless network.
That's nice if you live on a deserted island, where no one's around to steal your signal. But most us live closer to other people, where stealing your bandwidth and accessing your internal network can be as simple as turning on a laptop computer within range of your signal. That's why we security harden every wireless network we set up.
AN UNSECURE WIRELESS CONNECTION CAN ALLOW OUTSIDERS TO HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR COMPUTER AND YOUR ENTIRE NETWORK.
Sometimes it's ok not to share.
