Iron-cladding your Wi-Fi network
Not too recently, I answered two questions about Wi-Fi security. Although both about different subjects concerning Wi-Fi security, I thought it might be nice to sum up some Wi-Fi security techniques/tips, some known by “the general public” (read: non-superusers), some less known.
Is it a good idea to have Wi-Fi turned on all the time? How to see who is using my Wi-Fi?
So, what do I use to secure my network?
That’s an interesting question… It seems there’s no ultimate measure you can take to completely make your Wi-Fi network bullet proof. Like pretty much any other security method, there’s a way so hack and circumvent the measure taken. The ideal scenario seems to be to use different techniques to secure that oh-so-important wireless connection to the outside world.
In this blog post I’ll try to shed some light on which techniques are available, explain a little about how they work and share some tips that have always helped me.
