Security in wireless networking has always been a concern. An unsecured wireless network is an open invitation to hackers to walk right in to your computer and steal your personal information, upload malware onto your computer, and otherwise terrorize you. Whether you are building a complete wireless network, or adding wireless to an existing wired network, wireless brings with it special challenges. Well-publicized stories about “war driving” and other techniques through which hackers can easily infiltrate a wireless network have raised awareness of the problem–and the need for a solution. With traditional wired networks, it is extremely difficult for someone to steal your bandwidth but the big problem with wireless signals is that others can access the Internet using your broadband connection even while they are in a neighboring building or sitting in a car that’s parked outside your apartment. This practice, also known as piggybacking, is bad for three reasons:
- It will increase your monthly Internet bill especially when you have to pay per byte of data transfer.
- It will decrease your Internet access speed since you are now sharing the same internet connection with other users.
- It can create a security hazard as others may hack your computers and access your personal files through your own wireless network.
This is just one way that an unsecured device does not make business sense. Really all you are looking for is a secure way to share your network, or facilitate a productive environment for your employees, partners and visitors with internet access and protect your valuable corporate data.
