Wifi Security

1. 1. Change the name of your home wireless network: The first thing you need to change
is the name of your WiFi which we know as ssid (service set identifier). Never use
names that force hackers to hack your network. For example, suppose you name it "can't
hack this". That means you indirectly challenged hackers. And hackers will try to
break it down anyway. So you can use the name "this is not a wifi" or "Too fly for a
wifi". It is important to change the name so that the hacker may not realize at first
glance that you are using a brand router. Because they already know what kind of
vulnerabilities a market router has. And accordingly he conducts the attack. One thing
to keep in mind though, is that you never use wifi's name like sorol wifi. It is your
network without first understanding it. Because they will take some of the data from
your neighborhood that you can get hacked. So of course use another name so that no
one can easily understand whose network it is.

2. 1. Powerful and unique password selection: A good quality password should use 25
characters. And of course the password will be in combination with some letters +
numbers + symbols. Your friends might laugh at you for seeing such a big password. But
remember that security is far more valuable than ridicule.

3. 1. Enhance WiFi Security with Encryption: The wireless network has some encryption
languages such as Wep, wpa, wpa2 and so on. Wep was first developed in 5. So it's
currently easy to crack. And wpa2 has several variants. One is, TKIP, but this is the
old encryption method that was first used as wpa.So it's not safe. But another one is
the aes (advanced encryption standard) that is also used in government offices in
various countries, including the United States. So the best encryption method is wpa2
aes, so you can use this method.

4. When you are not at home, make the Wallace Network DISABLE: You think you're not at
home. Meanwhile WiFi is on. In this opportunity hackers can get a lot of time to
practice their hacking. And if your router breaks the security somehow, then your
status will be kerosene.It was recently emailed to me from WordFence Security that
around 5,000 websites were hacked through router hacking in the Philippines. You
realize how awful that thing is.

5. Where to put a router in your home? I know you never thought about where to put your
security again. But the security of your router depends on where you are located. Try
to keep your router in the middle of your home as much as possible. Because, the first
benefit is that you can run your wifi very well from every house. And the unique
advantage is that the signal range of your router will not go far, from which a hacker
can handle his hacking activities. So never put your router next to your window. This
may damage your security.

6. Choosing a Strong Administrator Password: You bought a router from the market that
your default password is known today by kids. So you must change your router's
password. Most WiFi routers have the default user name and password as admin, admin.
So it doesn't take a hacker any time to break this password. And if you change the
user name and password of this network admin then it will be very difficult for
cybercriminals attacking your WiFi.

7. Disable remote access: Most routers also allow that only the device's connected
interface can access the device. But there are some routers that also remotely access
the system.

8. Regularly update your router's software: The router also has firmware. Like other
software, the router has firmware and some errors or weaknesses. Therefore, router
companies occasionally update their firmware with new firmware to eliminate those
vulnerabilities.So by typing firmware on your router, search Google and see if any new
firmware has come out of your router. Of course you need to type in your router and
search And download from the official site.

9. A firewall can keep your wifi network safe: We think that firewalls are only used on
computers. In fact, firewall is also used in many hardware cases. This firewall is

built in with the router. So using a firewall, your system is completely safe. If your
device does not have a firewall built in, install a good firewall device.

10. Keep the devices you connect to WiFi frequently: Keep enough security software and
antivirus on the device you use such as computer or mobile. If online criminals do not
get control of your network through your mobile. I recommend that you use any of the
premium online security software. So, secure your wifi networks.
