The only measure most people use to protect their home wireless network nowadays is to set up a password and prevent neighbors and other people from taking control of your data. But we have to be more serious about home network security and do more than just setting a simple password. The wireless routers software is an essential part of your wireless network security. Update the router firmware to the latest available publicly available software. Change the default Wi-Fi network name to make it harder for malicious attackers to know what type of router you have and then try to exploit them.”]
