Title: Wifi Securing Tips


1
Securing your wifi network
2
Protecting wifi by a strong password
  • Password Selection Strategies
  • User should not share or write the password.
  • The password should not be common.
  • Password should contain a combination of words
    numbers and special characters.

Problems with Open network
  • Anyone can access your network that means any
    unknown persons can use the data and can bother
    the speed of your network.

  • The first line of defense for your Wi-Fi network
    is encryption, which encodes the data transmitted
    between your PC and your wireless router.
    Unfortunately, most routers ship with encryption
    turned off, and many users don't turn it on,
    leaving themselves completely exposed. If you
    haven't already, enable your router's encryption,
    and use the strongest form supported by your
    network. The Wireless Protected Access (WPA)
    protocol and more recent WPA2 have supplanted the
    older and less-secure Wireless Encryption
    Protocol (WEP).
  • Go with WPA or WPA2 if at all possible, since WEP
    is relatively easy to crack. (You have to use the
    same form on all devices on your network you
    can't mix WEP and WPA.) The keys used by WPA and
    WPA2 change dynamically, which make them nearly
    impossible to hack.
